Excellent article by Dr. Byram Bridle who is a vaccinologists (someone who creates vaccines) pointing out the hypocrisy of ‘misinformation experts’. Dr. Bridle is not anti-vaccine but pro safe and effective vaccines. This is something we should all be advocating for. “To the supporters of self-proclaimed ‘misinformation experts’: Stop your blind support. Start thinking critically. Ask why your champions are unable and unwilling to engage the public in open discussions about complex science, especially when it is conveniently taking place in their own backyard. A person can’t legitimately claim to be the fastest runner in the world and then refuse to race others that are laying claim to this title. In sports, the team that doesn’t show up, loses by default. I claim to be speaking the truth about COVID-19 vaccines and I have the science to back it up. Now encourage your champions to join me if they claim to be promoting a truth that differs from the reality that I live in. Remarkably, legacy media, Prof. Caulfield, and others have demonstrated massive emotional triggering and launched hit pieces against this event. I encourage you to explore this emotional triggering via internet searches; the lack of objectivity has been profound. Among many incorrect assertions is that the event was designed to give voice to once side of the debate. This couldn’t be further from the truth. As I already stated, people holding a wide range of opinions were invited. It turns out that many people rejected the invitation to engage with 500 members of the public in-person, and thousands more online. I have noted that a common factor is that those who declined insist on pushing a narrative while wielding largely hearsay evidence. Of concern to me is that Prof. Caulfield has doubled down on his accusations against people speaking at this event, which includes me. A successful academic career is built upon a pristine reputation. So, those who insist on accusing me of misleading the public while constantly wielding, at best, cherry-picked or hearsay evidence, and at worst, mere personal speculation, should not be surprised that I reserve the right to defend my professional reputation.” https://lnkd.in/g7Gy9F8p

May this article open a few more eyes to the agenda of lies we have been fed over the past few years.

Researchers at the Robert Koch Institute and partners developed criteria to assess the needs and feasibility of living systematic reviews on COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness. 📊 Their experience highlights the importance of relevance, certainty of evidence, and feasibility of dissemination. #Research #COVID19 #VaccineEffectiveness 💉

Glad to share with you our Editorial published in the journal #vaccines (I.F. 7.8). The Editorial introduces different articles published in our Special Issue. It discusses the importance of vaccines in public health.

The research study titled “Acceptance of a Third Dose of COVID-19 Vaccine and Associated Factors in China Based on Health Belief Model: A National Cross-Sectional Study” investigates the willingness of the Chinese public to receive the first booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccines. With a nationwide survey involving over 3,000 participants, the study finds that 93.7% of Chinese residents expressed readiness for the first booster dose, mainly influenced by factors such as perceived susceptibility, action cues, vaccination history, and occupation. These findings provide valuable insights for improving public health strategies and ensuring broader vaccine coverage as part of the fight against COVID-19. 📖 Read the full text: https://lnkd.in/gQDgM_Fz

“Neither Safe Nor Effective” is more than a book; it’s a clarion call for transparency and scrutiny in vaccine research. Dr. Colleen Huber meticulously dissects the layers of data surrounding COVID-19 vaccines, presenting a narrative that is as informative as it is provocative. Get your copy: https://lnkd.in/d8nm82i9 " I strongly recommend the book to students, teachers, researchers, and anyone who desires to gain insight into the possible effects of the coronavirus vaccine." ~OBC reviewer. #COVID19 #VaccineSafety #bookofthemonth

I am very happy to announce that our research, conducted with András Bíró-Nagy, on COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy has been published in the esteemed Public Health journal. This project, which started three years ago, has been a personal passion of mine, as it delves into several important topics. While many of us may have forgotten the darkest days of the #pandemic, it remains a historic event from which we must draw valuable lessons. We should be grateful to the nurses and doctors who fought at the front lines for our health during the pandemic, and the scientists, like Katalin Karikó whose groundbreaking vaccines have saved countless lives and paved the way for our return to normalcy. However, amidst these achievements, #misinformation began to spread and many people found themselves disillusioned not just with politics, but with scientists as well. Originally focused on identifying effective strategies for vaccine communication, our research uncovered sobering findings: many of the approaches we tested proved ineffective or even counterproductive. I believe that the politicization of vaccine procurement and the promotion of vaccines lacking authorization from the European Medicines Agency have significantly eroded public trust and undermined the efficiency of public health messaging. Hopefully, this is a lesson we can learn from. You can access our article via this link: https://lnkd.in/df4aDuNk

Recent reports of adverse events from Covaxin and Covishield COVID-19 vaccines have once again thrown up questions about how safe the vaccines we took during the pandemic really are. What do we know about COVID-19 vaccine side effects? What does the science say? Experts break down everything you need to know.
