Apples and Oranges
The comparison of the Covid vaccine with the polio vaccination is wrong because immunization to polio lasts a lifetime. Covid resembles influenza where the vaccine formulation changes every year and youngsters like myself are advised to receive two doses this season. Some years the strains selected offer only 20% protection. Are you against vaccinating against influenza as well, or only Covid promotes this kind of reaction?

An article that is honest!
I am in total agreement with this publication and have actually said the same thing since Covid started. We took the Adenoviral vector vaccine. the mRNA vaccine is toxic and immunity is very short lived. Novavax vaccine is the best but FDA only approved it recently! Sars_CoV2 was designed by Fauci and Barric to be able to make and sell the mRNA vaccines for personal profit. The mRNA vaccines change the T cell system.

Covid Vaccine
No research on the safety of this injection was ever done. Trials were done fleetingly on a few hundred people. No trials for efficacy whatsoever. No trials to stop transmission were ever done. The TGA were paid a vast amount of money by Pfizer which did a great deal of image damage because the don't really disclose the transaction fully. At no time has a 'vaccine' been fully trialed & passed in a few months leading anyone with critical thinking skills to surmise that it was made many years in advance. This also leads to the conclusion the 'virus' was made in a laboratory & purposefully spread so money could be made from the 'vaccine' & yet more money could be made treating the adverse health issues that inevitably followed.

A too simplified sentence
Thank you very much!
You wrote: "This result was due to badly designed trials."
I honestly disagree with this simplified thought.
The trials of Pfizer-Biontech and Moderna were excellently designed from their perspective. Off course, not from the perspective of public health. Therefore, I would have written:
"From the public health perspective, this result was due to extremly badly designed trials. The authorities totally missed their obligations."

Thank you for this important perspective. And for this new Journal endeavor!
