      This paper is before COVID-19, and found, generally, no viral interference with the vaccines. It has some specific results both ways, almost certainly because the numbers were small, but it in no way shows flu vaccines increase risks of COVID.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/03/31/coronavirus-viral-interference/ …

      The claim that it does is an antivaccine misrepresentation of the paper, and I hope you won’t help spread it. The organization behind the study also called it out.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/03/31/coronavirus-viral-interference/ …

      USA seems to have virtually no knowledge on vaccine NSEs.…https://coursesandconferences.wellcomegenomecampus.org/our-events/optimmunize/ …

      I have heard immunologists discuss them in conferences in the U.S.. And explain why they - and most experts, including the WHO committees - disagree with the Aaby group on this.

      Beware the trap of accepting one group’s views as gospel. This is the kind of thing that needs independent replication. And Aaby’s group work isn’t even about COVID-19 or influenza.

      He’s cherry picking, for sure.

      Replying to @gorskon @doritmi and

      It's always strange that if you quote a +ve vaccine NSE everybody except the antivaxxers agrees, but quote a -ve one and suddenly you're a cherry picker. I quoted only one good study & said "they MAY have a point". Flu vac NSEs in the presence of Covid are as yet undetermined!

      It’s not strange. It’s a question of data. Independent data shows preventing measles, for example, has positive general effects. On DTP, the evidence is from one group - and mostly based on a small, 30 year old dataset in a fast changing region.

      I can't help you with your comprehension. I quoted one good study and said "They MAY have a point..." I say again that NSEs for flu vaccine in the presence of Covid remain undetermined. I have no problem with data - I have a problem with Gradgrinds on the subject of NSEs.

      You said an antivaccine organization trying to cast fear and doubt about flu vaccines has a point by citing an off topic study that is misrepresented. When corrected, you could have said “I didn’t realize that, this certainly doesn’t support what they’re trying to say.”

      It's also a matter of a nonexpert latching onto a study that supports his preconceived notions without being aware of what the current overall evidence from the relevant scientific and medical disciplines says about the claim he's trying to make.
