Asking The Uncomfortable Questions About Vaccines | Dr. Paul Offit

[@xm8553]

Mike you do a great job of asking questions the average person wants to know the answer to, and not just accepting the answer given and continuing to have them explain why. Love this podcast, I have learned a lot and feel I can make better educated decisions for me and my family

People also didn't realize that COVID also had myocarditis risk and that risk was more severe and more damaging to the heart. Yet we freaked out over the mRNA vaccine for having a rare and very light risk of it. Risk assessment is terribly poor in human behavior.

[@argoneonoble]

It was also about stopping the spread of it. All ages can spread it. Our hospitals were full and a modern society can't function without medical Care: for example, breaking your leg, but having to wait a week to be seen cause it's not life-threatening.

[@raukoring]

That's all nice OP only if you haven't pulled those stats off your bum

[@RitvikivtiR]

Well if you realised what you just said, think about how we needlessly put kids and young teens at risk by giving them the vaccine? They would see almost none of those heart problems and bounce back from the infection EASILY. But this vaccine was mandated WHILE keeping that myocarditis risk secret, and more than anything, it makes people feel betrayed and gaslit.

There are Medical Boards for all 50 US States and they regularly advise members of Congress. On a federal level there is the NIH, National Institutes of Health, which consist of 27 different institutes, the most notable being National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which Dr. Fauci was the head of from 1984-2022. Absolutely none of this matters to Republican politicians who consistently deny the medical science advised to them by their own medical boards and the 27 different institutes of the NIH.

[@thehelpfulmom1059]

That would be a good interview

[@FunderDuck]

From what I’ve seen and discussed with people, the modern concern around general vaccinations revolves around the quantity and frequency of injections, particularly with younger children. Also, there’s still abundant skepticism around mRNA technology, and whether some of the widespread health issues countries are dealing with post-pandemic are causally linked to adverse effects, or whether these simply correlate and the mechanisms that make mRNA vaccines work are largely safe. I personally feel like it’s okay and important to discuss these topics openly, especially when adding in the context of how diseases in the past ravaged entire populations. Meeting skepticism with censorship or questions with insults isn’t the best way forward. Conversations like these could go a long way in advancing public awareness and understanding.

[@justindwight5457]

@@FunderDuck your first concern was covered. Not sure you watched or payed attention to that part. Today’s childhood vaccines schedule contains less ingredients and covers more than any previous schedule.

[@FunderDuck]

@ yes, I watched the full video. And my comment was more to present common criticisms rather than my personal views. It was great to see Doctor Mike articulate the common questions and concerns some people have around this topic. There is a world of difference between acknowledging someone’s question and then providing a response, as opposed to brushing off the concern entirely as dumb or dangerous. I think many academics would prefer it if everyone in society just outright trusted their professional positions. However, with the collapse of institutional trust largely driven by the pandemic, rebuilding that trust and general public education on important topics sometimes requires going back to basics.

I'm so GLAD the US recommends it for everyone, otherwise people like me (not in a high risk group) wouldn't be able to get the insurance to cover a vaccine that I want to get.

[@DianaMayeDesigns]

The only vaccine that I've ever questioned was the Covid vaccines... mostly because of the speed of how fast they developed it. That worried me but I still got it. ETA: I didn't say that I didn't understand the vaccine for Covid now... this was back in 2021 when I got it the year before my dad's death. I don't have any questions now, people. I just meant that, at the time, I worried about it... and my worries were valid...

[@Peaceful_Rayne]

[@DianaMayeDesigns]

@@Peaceful_Rayne I realize that. I just had a lot of questions and concerns about it when other vaccines takes years to get through.

[@DemosIoannou]

do you know that speed has nothing to do in testing ? the only reason the "old" vaccines took years is because it was hard to find volunteers. do you know that for some vaccines they tested it on like 300 people why covid was tested in 10 000 people ?

[@WiseSnake]

Good to hear. The speed at which the covid vaccine was developed was largely due to our familiarity with coronaviruses; mRNA technology has been around since the 1960s; using liposome delivery mechanisms were developed in the 70s. There are some 80s and 90s research in there, too. The foundation of the research that went into the development of the covid vaccine is quite old by this point. The media failed spectacularly, as they usually do, when it came time to educate the general populace. This was basic stuff that should have been widely known.

[@DianaMayeDesigns]

I found this super informative, and some of this my med student friends or medical staff friends were also saying in the beginning. As someone who grew up as a sickkid with epilepsy of course, I've had disasters with medical problems. Though i wouldn't be here without doctors that worked hard on medications. Also, i had to have boosters on a few vaccines cause of my hospital stays, and because of that, i didn't get sick with things trying to recover from bigger issues. Nurses, doctors, and techs are the majority amazing people and to see people not trust the professionals that dedicated their life to save ours makes me sad. It's healthy to have questions or concerns, but listen to the answers carefully and wven a second opinion is fine. Though if two or 3 professionals tell you the same thing, be open to learning n correction. Thanks doctor mike for such a great video ❤

My entire life (50 years old) I have become extremely sick from vaccines. 5 years ago I was diagnosed with Aggressive Rheumatoid Arthritis. My doctors and specialists recommend vaccination. When I explain my history with vaccines, they tell me I'm wrong or was probably sick from something else. Am I crazy?? Dr. Mike, would you address immunocompromised people and vaccines?

[@davidr9589]

They will not. The government won't allow him to.

[@miri2046]

Some people are sensitive to immunizations or must avoid them altogether. I’d suggest looking around for doctors that make you feel supported and heard. Unfortunately, doctors are still people and some are quick to dismiss or generalize concerns brought up by patients. In any case, this also highlights the importance of having everyone else that can handle immunizations have them as necessary. If they’re immunized, it reduces the risk of you contracting an illness you can’t otherwise be immunized for

[@emanueltosado4818]

Well kind off. With vaccines you may get what is called flu like symptoms or other similar adverse events but you don't get the disease. The idea is that you don't get the disease that can have serious effects instead of self limiting effects the vaccine might give you.

[@DP-PhD]

Individually the technologies were not new. LNPs, mRNA (with modified bases), understanding of translation and targeting of translated protein to cell membranes was well understood. However, what was new was the bringing together of all these technologies into an application for the soul purpose of generating an adaptive immune response, and generation of immunological memory, in humans. Operation warp speed allowed this. I seriously doubt if the mRNA-based vaccines would have been developed without it.

[@Justanotherconsumer]

mRNA vaccines were already a plan, this is just the first time they were tried because they needed such fast turnaround time.

[@alexbggtt]

I wish there wouldn’t have been such a short “sweet heart” discussion about corruption. Corruption is highly apparent, and to have a less than 60 second discussion makes it look like you just wanted to be able to say that it was part of the discussion of the video. Corruption can exist an any industry, and its presence should always be assumed. It’s not a question of is happening, but what can we do that we’ve never done before to weaken it as much as possible. I’m very much so pro-vaccine, and in school for physics and computer science (not biology, but I would argue it does add validity in scientific debate), but I think watching this video actually decreased my confidence in how much vaccines / pharma will actually prioritize my health. I like Dr. Mike, but I think this video was a blunder.

[@zakwhite5159]

This is going to be a pedantic critique, but the argument, "it's never happened before" is not good. I'll have to read the papers Dr. Offit references, but that is a clear logical fallacy as "the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence." This doesn't mean his other supporting evidence of his argument is wrong either as that would be committing the rather common sin of the "fallacy fallacy". Overall I enjoy and respect his candor in this discussion. I think he would be really great in a Monk debate on the topic.

[@Justanotherconsumer]

Risk management is based on, as they talked about, the same principle as poker. That it’s theoretically possible but has never happened and didn’t show up in the trials is not something that’s persuasive in risk management. That it could happen when there’s no indication that it will is a risk but not one that’s going to change the outcome of the discussion.

And it hurts, mildly. However, I think my left leg worsened.

An observation - Offit cannot understand that "accomplished, educated, trained MD / PhD (from Harvard even)" can disagree with him. That is what is alarming. Disagreements are real. It is not mis or dis, it is just information from differing perspectives. It necessitates discussion and debate, not dismissal... Censorship is never the answer.

Well you missed the point then.

Depends on the information they are disagreeing on. Good evidenced facts are facts.

[@alanjackson1015]

Not quite what he said. He doesn't care with people disagreeing with *him*, he cares that people disagree with the *evidence*

Disagreements are real but when someone doesn’t listen to facts and insists on saying things that are demonstrably false and demonstrably politically motivated, things happen.

Remind me again, how'd that process go during the COVID vaccine trials? Can we have an honest conversation about that, for once?

[@Max-js1mx]

they have numerous times, do research, don't wait for a KZbinr to explain it to you

[@alanjackson1015]

What process?

[@justindwight5457]

It’s been explained over and over again. You aren’t listening or don’t care unless it comes from a source that your bias wants to trust. So answer me this, what part of vaccine trials was skipped in the covid vaccine trials?
