What makes the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines so effective?

I don’t usually begin by gainsaying the question, but what on Earth makes you think they are? Unfortunately for your inquiring mind, Government level data exists that actually prove you wrong in thinking they are effective. Wanna see? Allllrighty then!

UKHSA NNV to Prevent 1 hospitalization stratified by age and risk group

Now, the above table produced from the linked report from the UK Government shows the NNV values (or the Number needed to Vaccinate) which is a research measure or a statistical concept that quantifies the effectiveness of a vaccine.

It represents the number of people who need to be vaccinated to prevent one adverse outcome, such as a case of disease, infection, or hospitalization. A lower NNV indicates a more effective vaccine, as fewer people need to be vaccinated to prevent a negative outcome.

Now, the table shows a breakdown of UK population hospital data showing the NNV values of the different shots in order to prevent ONE SEVERE HOSPITALIZATION. Just one.

Look at those figures and tell yourself that they’re still effective. If they were, they’d be considerably lower. Look at the 40 to 49 year olds in the no risk group, highlighted yellow for the Autumn 2022 booster. Nearly a million people need to be injected just to prevent ONE severe case.

That’s not economical.

Now, factor in the 1 in 800 severe adverse reactions from the original trials. If you inject nearly a million to prevent one case calculated in the above table, then you’re condemning potentially over 1,100 people to a severe outcome that was unnecessary because they’re in the NO RISK cohort. Do that same calculation across all age groups and tell me if you think hospitals would be able to cope.

Nope, sorry. You’re sadly mistaken; the modRNA Covid-19 gene-based injection therapeutics are not in any way effective. Plus, they were never meant to prevent infection or fully neutralize the virus upon challenge, they weren’t designed that way. 2014 peer reviewed literature research showed the manufacturers that, but they did it anyway.

Who knew!??!?
