This is from the company that benefits financially from Ivermectin.

Since the semantics between therapeutic and vaccine has become such a sticking point in 2020, show some pre 2020 references to what you believe. I believe that calling these mRNA therapies, vaccines is a misnomer. Or better yet just drop it, or call names. The sooner this thread is shut down, the better.

Since you asked, an mRNA therapeutic is a biologic molecule designed to actually defeat its intended target such as a cancer cell. An mRNA vaccine is a biologic molecule designed to trigger your immune system to defeat the intended target. In this case the SARS-COVID 19 virus and its current variants.

Please don't ask for citations and I'm putting my tin foil cap back on.

You are way behind dude, read back a few pages. Ivermectin has been generic for a long time. Looks like this thread is being edited right now. Just close it already!

Re: Covid vaccination status for CF members

Mayo Clinic trained doctor speaks on the state of the pandemic, vitamin D, treatment and vaccines. In two parts on instagram.

Worth a watch for anyone with an open mind.

Re: Covid vaccination status for CF members

The issue with ivermectin is very simple, it has nothing to do with the drug itself and it’s benefits or lack there of , it’s the fact that the drug has been in use for 45 years and it’s extremely cheap to produce ( 3 cents per dose ) so the big pharmaceuticals don’t have any interest in it because there’s no profits.
And believe me big pharma has zero interest in people’s health , only profits .
So they will do their best to discredit anything that can hurt their profits and they have big lobbying power.

A little forum decorum.

Re: Covid vaccination status for CF members

Pfizer Inc and its German partner BioNTech SE on Friday asked U.S. regulators to allow the emergency use of their vaccine in adolescents aged 12 to 15.

The vaccine is currently authorized for emergency use in the United States for people aged 16 and up. The companies said on Friday that they requested an expansion of the authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to include the younger age group.

In March, the drugmakers said the vaccine was found to be safe, effective and produced robust antibody responses in 12- to 15-year olds in a clinical trial.

Re: Covid vaccination status for CF members

Are we allowed to discuss here about the possible risks of these so called vaccines, alternative options, and the related debate that exists among scientists and medical practitioners? Just asking (in a nice way).

Certainly. Just be polite and respectful to other posters, and refrain from comments on moderation. It would be really worthwhile to review the forum rules at this point.

Re: Covid vaccination status for CF members

I don't know if anyone is still posting actual vaccine status updates, but the wife and I (45 and 47) were able to get Pfizer #1 at Walgreens in Fernandina. They had plenty of slots open and were very casual about our residency. We used the marina we were at in Vero (it's the address on our FL registration) but didn't need to see proof of it or anything. We used our passports as our ID.

Our 2nd shot is May 7th. We weren't planning on still being this far south in May so we will probably look in to the possibility of getting a 2nd shot at a Walgreens in another state. Has anyone done that yet? I know of at least one other person that will be trying to get the 2nd jab in a different state than the 1st.

In any case, hanging around the GA/FL border area isn't the worst place to spend a month.

So far so good, a bit of a sore arm, that's about it.

Re: Covid vaccination status for CF members

If this is not forcing vaccinations then nothing is - If you want to flee that volcano you have to be vaccinated.
