      It is faster and easier to get approval for any new boosters under an EUA "status". EUAs are granted when there are no other treatments. Since there are other effective treatments and many more people with natural immunity, however it ought to be removed. After 10 years, maybe it will be pulled.

      The immunosuppressed are better protected from vaccine injury because they don’t overreact, but healthy people are more likely to be injured by manufacturing more spike proteins with every boost. If your immune response is weak, you’re better off supporting it with nutrients and sunshine, and importing antivirals from plants and (Nobel-winning) soil organisms like the ones used against other corona viruses. The risk to people with ovaries from the lipid nano particles (propylene glycol), and to young men with hearts should also be considered.

      @@patty-cf7jj and also deaths fluctuate from year to year. Crime is up 50% almost everywhere and that fluctuates too. People who really want to tie excess deaths to the vaccine need to look at a system like Kaiser Permenante in CA, which has about 12 million patients and banned Bextra before the FDA did just by sifting through their records of patients on it and adverse effects. Or look at Israel and the UK with their socialized medicine and ease of sifting through millions of electronic medical records.
      The fact is people are trying, but they just can't tie it to the vaccine, and it's the most monitored vaccine in history (VEARS in US, Eudravigilance in EU, Yellow Card in UK) so it wouldn't be hard to tie it to the vaccine if it was true. In fact shortly after the J&J vaccine debuted they immediately found a clotting issue, pulled it from the market, studied it and re-introduced it not recommending it to younger people.

    They need to do a randomized trial that compares all cause hospitalization person-days in people who take a vaccine regimen (like, boosters every six months) to those who never take any vaccine.
    I'd say it is ethical to do this because the people in the trial would be VOLUNTEERS, so it is okay if they get a placebo, and, since no RCT has ever shown a benefit on this end -point, noone really knows if it isn't better to be the in the placebo group anyways.
    We have to stop thinking that 'just because there is a risk to mitigate' that means we have to try to mitigate it before we prove our mitigation strategy is net beneficial.

From the little data on side effects that we have it seems likely that those with weakened immune systems and multiple comorbidities are also most likely to suffer vaccine injury.

      Doctors are sweeping vax injuries under the carpet and not reporting them because either they just don't want to or out of fear. A local doctor said he was warned by the medical governing body here not to report vax injuries. When he continued reporting them they revoked his medical license. I've heard multiple doctors with similar stories. So we do not have reliable vax injury data probably because it seems like the government and/or medical establisment don't want the true numbers to get out.

    I think the CDC lost the public when they promised getting shots would prevent infection and transmission and “end the pandemic.” I realize there was a certain giddiness when the 95% numbers were shown, but the goal of clinicians had always been prevention of severe disease/hospitalization/ventilation/death. Most clinicians knew that immunity would wane. Patients are very angry that they got symptomatic disease after 1,2,3 doses, even though we as clinicians are grateful that it is mild in so many. We have moved from “good enough” immunity protecting against the worst, to the very “best immunity” protecting from symptomatic infections. These are unrealistic goals and the damage done to public trust is enormous.

    We need to do randomized control trials that are powered for clinical outcomes. These trials need to last a long time.
    They can be done DURING a mass rollout of the vaccine.
    Why do we refuse to do randomized trials once we've given the green light on the next booster,? Are we afraid that our decision will be proven wrong? Are we afraid we will be proven right, thus making it unethical for the placebo group to be denied the actual treatment?
    I think any downsides of running the trial are compensated by the knowledge we gain, AND, if the vaccine is proven to be net beneficial, you could reduce vaccine hesitancy.

      It is NEVER unethical to have a placebo group, especially in an mRNA gene therapy (yes, mrna falls under FDA's gene therapy guidance) trial. It is obscene that that argument is even brought up. And you know why pfizer and moderna sabotaged their control groups within 6 weeks, because all-cause mortality was trending in the wrong direction. Science has flown out the window

    • @HondoTrailside
      @HondoTrailside 2 года назад

      They know they won't get good results and that is not a criticism entirely, there are drugs that trials will not differentiate. Offit said why because the signal can't be strong enough when the baseline survival is around 95% anyway. Though it is up to people to decide how much they want to roll the dice to get that extra .2% protection.
      But there are other design reasons why they would not get a result. They gave it to everyone, most of whom have low chance of severe disease. This is the other way of diluting the result. While the product could still be very effective for a small segment of people, but it will not come out of a CRT that will be done on everyone to whom it has been given.

      I get what you're saying. However, it seems you could get a statistically significant all cause mortality signal by doing a trial with just a few thousand really old people (say 80 plus year olds in nursing homes).
      You could justify the the trial ethically by pointing out the fact that there has never been a randomized control trial for that age group, so it is okay to allow VOLUNTEERS to possibly receive a placebo.

      I would change that to 'it is unethical to keep people in The placebo group after the treatment shows NET benefit'.
      In the case of the mRNA vaccines, the crossover occured before NET benefit was shown. (I would support this with a quote from the Pfizer trial, but my comment will get deleted). Thus, it would have been ethical to keep the trial going.
      Furthermore, there had never been a randomized control trial on really old people, or on people who had already had covid, so even IF we agree that they had to crossover the placebo people in the initial trial, they still needed to run a trial in these different populations. This is ESPECIALLY true given that governments coerced people to take the vaccine (including people who were in a category which had never been tested in an RCT).
      Furthermore, given that we have seen:
      1) quickly waning protection conferred by the covid vaccines
      And
      2) myocarditis being caused by the vaccines at potentially alarming rates in teen boys
      It is ethical NOW, in retrospect, to run some more randomized control trials, so that we can prove net benefit.
      If you're worried that 'some people will get a placebo and not the actual treatment', just remember that we know they will be in a similar level of protection as the treatment group after a few months anyways, AND we still don't know if the placebo group isn't better off anyways (since NET benefit was never proven).
      Finally, and this is REALLY important:
      IT IS MORE UNETHICAL TO FORCE PEOPLE TO TAKE THE VACCINE AS A CONDITION OF EMPLOYMENT/ PARTICIPANT IN SCHOOL ETC. THAN IT IS TO ALLOW A VOLUNTEER TO POSSIBLY GET A PLACEBO. Remember, it would be a VOLUNTEER who gets a placebo. They're volunteers. There's nothing unethical about that. Whereas governments FORCED people to take the vaccine as a condition of employment. Some governments even fined people for not taking enough doses of the vaccine. It should be clear to any ethical person that the latter is more unethical than the former.

The evidence for the effectiveness of vitamin D supplementation for the treatment of COVID-19 is very uncertain. Moreover, we found only limited safety information, and were concerned about consistency in measurement and recording of these outcomes. There was substantial clinical and methodological heterogeneity of included studies, mainly because of different supplementation strategies, formulations, vitamin D status of participants, and reported outcomes. There is an urgent need for well-designed and adequately powered randomised controlled trials (RCTs) with an appropriate randomisation procedure, comparability of study arms and preferably double-blinding. We identified 21 ongoing and three completed studies without published results, which indicates that these needs will be addressed and that our findings are subject to change in the future. Due to the living approach of this work, we will update the review periodically."
