In a Nutshell

What were they inaccurate about?

  • Inaccurate about expectation that spike does not circulate
  • Inaccurate about understanding the distribution of antibodies
  • Inaccurate to evaluate one's immunity on the presence of antibodies
  • Inaccurate to use glowing efficacy based on relative risk of units of data that represent Days With Symptoms instead of survival, especially across greater time scales
  • Inaccurate to sugest that modification to spike sequence was done for safety
  • Inaccurate to suggest something is safe for pregnancy, particularly at time points when it could not have possibly been used for the entire duration of a full pregnancny
  • Inaccurate to suggest all the vaccines are equally safe
  • Inaccurate to conclude that each vaccine has different types of side effects
  • Inaccurate to suggest that natural immunity should not be expected to be effective and durable
  • Inaccurate to propose a Darwinian explanation as to why variants are created and to lay the blame entirely on the unvaccinated
  • Inaccurate to suggest that our PCR tests are effective at identifying COVID cases
  • Inaccurate at referring to asymptomatic spread as a spreading of disease rather than a spreading of immunity
  • Inaccurate to obsess over Long Covid
  • Inaccurate to report case numbers based on PCR, with no distinction for CT value, and to report daily changes to overall data sets, including revised changes to past dates.
  • Inaccurate to suggest mitigation strategies are effective and harmless
  • Inaccurate to suggest that herd immunity can be achieved
  • Inaccurate to avoid doing blood work to test D-Dimers, troponin levels, and changes to concentrations / proportion at different immune cells.
  • Inaccurate to scaremonger about variants, without helping people understand the distinction between antigen drift, which occurs naturally with coronaviruses, and antigen shift, which happens with influenza.
