A Rushed COVID-19 Vaccine “Could Actually Worsen the Covid-19 Pandemic” – Scientists

[Collective Evolution]: A new study outlines how a rushed covid vaccine could make the pandemic worse. Do all of our vaccines go through appropriate safety testing? Why are they a liability free product? Why are so many concerns being raised by so many scientists completely ignored by mainstream media, but a rushed coronavirus vaccine isn't?

A paper recently published in The Lancet titled “Covid-19 vaccine trials should seek worthwhile efficacy” states the following:

Deployment of a weakly effective vaccine could actually worsen the COVID-19 pandemic if authorities wrongly assume it causes a substantial reduction in risk, or if vaccinated individuals wrongly believe they are immune, hence reducing implementation of, or compliance with, other COVID-19 control measures. Deployment of a marginally effective vaccine could also interfere with the evaluation of other vaccines, as subsequent vaccines would then have to be compared with it rather than with a placebo.
The paper also points out that “There is a danger that political and economic pressures for rapid introduction of a COVID-19 vaccine could lead to widespread deployment of a vaccine that is in reality only weakly effective (eg, reducing COVID-19 incidence by only 10–20%), perhaps because of a misleadingly promising result from an underpowered trial.” ...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...
