It is still in the 'experimental' stage though. This isn't anti-vax talk, this is genuine scientists. It's basically all been one big global experimentation because of the circumstances. Which is why they keep on getting refined.

If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
Pfizer raking in the dollars, produce a vaccine that doesn't stop spread then come out with a pill that will be fired by the fistfull at anyone over 65 who tests positive.

This is incorrect. It’s not in the ‘experimental’ phase. And they aren’t getting refined due to experimentation. They are adapted to subsequent variants in the same way as other vaccines are.

Exactly - if it hadn't been then 75 people in the UK wouldn't have lost their lives to severe blood clotting which was never picked up during the AZ trials because we simply didn't have enough time to do medical trials lasting years on them.
For what its worth I cant stand anti vaxxers who spout conspiracy nonsense - but those who've had vaccines in the past but have reservations over these ones based on the timeframe have 100% legitimate concerns and its scary how brainwashed the masses have been by the media to hate on these people and look down on them as lepers.

Indeed. They have an emergency approval for use but they have still been through vigorous trials. They had to be approved quickly that's true but they have been tested during various stages.

Just a few things you’ve said should happen in the country so I’m confused as to why turning into nazi germany is a concern for you? I think you’d like it.

It wasn’t picked up in the trials because it is so rare that you needed a huge number of people being vaccinated to spot it, not because of the speed of the trials. The AZ trials were done on a comparatively large group of about 30k people but at a rate of 8 incidences per million there is a good chance that there were no cases in the trial group.
AstraZeneca finds small clot risk after 1st COVID shot, less after 2nd

- Study finds TTS rate 8.1 per million after 1st dose
- Study finds TTS rate 2.3 per million after 2nd dose

I’m off out to put some anti-vaxxers windows out if anyone cares to join me. If anyone asks we can blame it on the commies.
