I think u folks R misleading and intellectually quite lazy. Yes. It’s a very simple task to adhere to utilitarian arguments without due consideration to the why and whether of hesitancy and safety, respectively. The positions U take are quite superficial and wo nuance. Change.

Pot. Kettle. Black. It is in fact YOUR arguments that are quite superficial and lack nuance. You don’t understand the difference between vaccine-hesitant and antivaccine. You can’t counter the studies I cite that suggest the premise of
#ScreenB4Vaccine has low plausibility.1 reply 1 retweet 11 likes -

You ignore the evidence of tens of millions of doses of
#CovidVaccine administered without a safety signal predicted by your hypothesis. Instead, you keep robotically repeating#ScreenB4Vaccine and how that’s based on your “immunological prognostication.”2 replies 1 retweet 11 likes -
David, again. If COVID-19 disease/death and thromboembolic events days after vaccination are not classified as “vaccine related”, a signal won’t be “seen”. If U do not look, U do not see. What of that don’t u get? Believe me, I’d love to C my prognostication not bear out.

Baseline rates, man. If such events occur in the vaccinated at a detectably higher rate than the expected baseline rate, then THAT’S a safety signal, regardless of how the deaths are ruled. After tens of millions of doses, they haven’t. Do you not understand basic epidemiology?

You’re wrong about this Dave signals get blunted by noise and by professionals not looking and by system momentum. If u take two seconds to study the hazard that killed my wife u’d understand. That signal was blunted and ignored for over 20 yrs. Pls get a clue. Nuance! Ativan!

As sorry as we all are about your wife, there are huge differences here. First, the numbers involved are orders of magnitude larger over a much shorter period of time. Second, there is unprecedented attention being paid to safety monitoring. It’s a VERY different situation.

1/2: David, real public health signals get blunted and R subject to noise based on the their frequency and based on the way public health experts classify the variables. COVID Disease/Deaths and thromboembolic events after vaccine are not considered "vaccine related".

The sad irony, if you had made this claim - that our vaccine surveillance systems were not adequately tracking instances of such adverse events - a week earlier, I might have thought "gosh, maybe he's right, maybe that obvious thing got overlooked." But after a week....

... of watching your behavior, I have NO reason to think your description, of what evidence epidemiologists are or aren't on the lookout for, bears any relation to the real world.

That’s because it doesn’t. He doesn’t know what he is talking about here.
