Dr Schaffner said if infections continue to spread among the unvaccinated, it can hamper the pandemic response. “When it does, it mutates and it could throw off a variant mutation that is even more serious down the road,” said Dr Schaffner according to CNN.
Similarly the World Health Organisation (WHO) recently stated that “The more we allow the virus to spread, the more opportunity the virus has to change.”
Given the lack of proper follow-up data of vaccinated individuals, the real life picture of the epidemiology of vaccinated versus unvaccinated is incredibly muddy. This in and of itself is something of a scandal given that the vaccines use an entirely novel technology, the efficacy of which has yet to be determined. Indeed in one study in Israel, it is noted that ‘clinicians should have a high level of suspicion of reported symptoms and avoid dismissing complaints as vaccine-related until true infection is ruled out and vaccinees are tested.’
There is an assumption in many of these articles that the immunity of
populations and individuals are the same. However, most people by now
will be aware that the risk of serious illness with the SARS-CoV-2 virus
is more likely in the elderly, those with weak immune responses and
those in certain at-risk categories such as those receiving cancer
therapy or cardiac patients.
The vast majority of the vulnerable population have now been immunised. The proportionate risk to the rest of the UK population has always been significantly lower; in some instances as much as 1000-fold.
There is also an underlying assumption in these articles that there is no immunity without vaccines. This is simply not the case. In September 2020, it was shown that up to 50% of the UK population displayed various forms of T-cell immunity to the new virus from exposure to previous endemic viruses.6 More recently it was suggested that this could be as high as 81%.7 In addition, a recent study found that rapid and efficient memory-type immune responses occur reliably in virtually all unvaccinated individuals who are exposed to SARS-CoV-2, whether they were symptomatic or not.8 So the number of naturally immune individuals will have risen through exposure to the virus over time, even in the absence of symptomatic disease....<<<Read The Original Article Here>>>...
