"The key to ending the pandemic has always been the immune system."
Steve Templeton, Associate Professor, Microbiology & Immunology, Indiana University
The Covid vaccine campaign was based on the faulty premise that a respiratory virus could be controlled through human behavior, including mass vaccination. Airborne respiratory viruses are not good candidates for vaccine treatments. Before Covid-19 there were four recirculating coronaviruses that regularly infect humans, including the one that causes the common cold. Now there are five, thanks to SARS-CoV-2.
Respiratory viruses and other microbes are constantly in our environment, with people always developing immunity, and the virus always trying to evade immunity. Vaccine development for respiratory viruses will always be behind the current strain. For example, the December 2020 Covid vaccines were designed to address the original Covid-19 Wuhan strain. By the time the vaccine rollout began, the Delta variant and B117 variants had replaced the Wuhan strain.
By the time the Omicron strain became dominant in the fall of 2021, when the first booster shots were being pushed and the vaccine mandates arrived, the vaccines were almost completely outdated, formulated for strains that were no longer circulating. CDC Director Rochelle Walensky acknowledged in August 2021 that the Covid shots could not prevent the spread of Covid-19.
The bivalent boosters that were released in the fall of 2022 were geared for the Wuhan spike and the original Omicron spike. Wuhan was long gone, and the original Omicron had been outcompeted by other mutations. The Covid booster shots had no significant impact on preventing infection or spread of Covid-19, which is why almost everyone from Dr. Fauci, to the arrogant talking heads on TV, to your friends and family members, got Covid despite vaccination.
Diseases have not been eradicated through vaccination:
The only diseases that have been eradicated through vaccination are smallpox and a cattle disease, rinderpest, which has never impacted humans. Neither is caused by an airborne respiratory virus. We don't have effective vaccines for endemic respiratory diseases; that is, diseases that continually circulate in the population, usually seasonally.
Each year when the flu shots roll out, there is around a 30 percent chance that the shot will impact infection with influenza, in part because the shot is always based on strains from the previous year.
Some might say, well, we have to try things if we're going to have any advances in medicine and science. There is some truth to that. After all, it's called "the practice of medicine." However, when it comes to new medications and vaccines, and novel medical technologies, there are strict rules. These rules and procedures, put in place to protect people from dangerous, untested products, were violated completely with the Covid-19 vaccines.
The push for future capacity to design and inject mRNA vaccines within 100 days of the appearance of a new pathogen, ignores two essential points: 1) mRNA technology has not been proven to be safe or effective, and 2) humans have immune systems that have successfully learned to fight diseases since the beginning of time, without being given constant injections.
The 100-days goal for mRNA vaccines ignores the key point that the first mRNA vaccines tested on people - the Covid-19 vaccines - were a complete failure. They neither prevented illness nor prevented spread, but they have caused widespread and long-lasting harm.
"Wrong shot, wrong protein, wrong virus"
We are literally doing the largest experiment on humanity ever done, not knowing the long-term outcomes.

When the vaccine rollout began, Dr. Ryan Cole was the owner of a large medical lab that provided doctors the results of patients' blood samples. His lab began to notice unu...
