I'm anti-capitalist-vax. Back in the 80s and 90s, my generation got free vaccination from Cuba. The nurses went house by house and vaccinated every baby. It was free, convenient, reliable and high quality.
Now vaccines are expensive, ineffective, with high risk of complications (quite a few deaths) and a complicated, inconvenient process of administration. The belief that privatization improves the quality of product/service is just delusional.
This is Vietnam by the way.
I get this sentiment, but do you personally know how long it takes to make a vaccine, or how that process can be expedited versus other vaccines that were in the pipe works? Or are you just going to ballpark a length of time that feels right?
Most sources cite that It usually takes 2-5 years to develop a vaccine, some say 10-15. No sources state that it takes less than a year, and a vaccine for a virus that everyone wants magically being ready with less then a year of development time is risky at best.
If you can find a reliable source that gives less then a year development time for a virus similar to COVID, be my guest
a vaccine for a virus that everyone wants magically being ready with less then a year of development time is risky at best.
I think this is the key here. Trump kept blathering about having a vaccine ready to go by the end of this year, but as far as I'm concerned the experts are saying that it won't be ready until Summer at the earliest, if even that. At that point it will have been nearly 1.5 years of R&D, not that far off of that 2 year mark, especially considering that this has been a global all hands on deck effort. And that's at the earliest, it may not even be until late next year. The 10-15 year development cycle is for things that are a lot more complex than just a coronavirus, in terms of virology.
I think what's just rubbing my goat wrong here is that yelling about how skeptical you are of the vaccine well before said vaccine is anywhere even near market is basically just counting your chickens before they hatch. I'm skeptical of a rushed vaccine as well, but I'm going to wait until they actually decide "okay, here is the vaccine we are going to push" before I start looking into the development process it faced.
I know lol. My point was the time it takes varies depending on the type of virus. 2-5 years is another time period thats commonly cited. I think 2 years is fine, it's less then 12 months that makes me go "uuh".
"I don't trust this vaccine which will hypothetically come out sometime in the future because it will be rushed[citation needed]" is covert antivax bullshit
Not gonna look for articles if you call me a dipshit, dipshit.
There was talk from the FDA that they were going to effectively cancel third stage testing, to get vaccines out on time. That didn't happen. If one of the promising vaccines didn't have patients with unexplained illnesses, they might have.
I haven't been keeping track of the vaccines lately, as in, in the last month. If it goes through the trials, I'll take it. But if it looks like they removed some important steps to get it to market faster, I won't.
Knowing we're probably not engaging in good faith is enough for me to not want to put in the effort to engage in good faith. Looking up articles and research studies takes times.
This also creates an unspoken assumption that the vaccine is safe unless proven otherwise. Onus is on me to prove they're, maybe not even skipping steps, I never even said they were, as I won't know until a vaccine hits the market, but considering skipping steps.
Onus isn't on you to prove that an emergency authorization of vaccine use isn't removing any important steps regarding health and safety.
Therefore I get to do the effort and you get to shoot holes in it.
I don't like those terms.
The FDA already floated the idea of bringing vaccines to the market without completing third phase trials. Then, shortly after, patients in two studies, Astra Zeneca and Johnson & Johnson, started developing unexplained symptoms. That's enough for me to be uncomfortable.
This also creates an unspoken assumption that the vaccine is safe unless proven otherwise.
Pretty much, yeah, as it should be. I trust those who develop and research and test vaccines to do it properly because there are already quite extreme rules and regulations surrounding that entire process intended to make the outcomes safe. If you want to start sowing distrust in the process which makes vaccines safe, you'll need to show some goddamn evidence.
I mean you won't actually, because I'm already being downvoted here for taking a pro-vaccine stance, so you antivax weirdos are apparently taking over. We're fucked.
That's not evidence anything changed, that's just Trump yelling at the sky demanding that a vaccine rains down. unless you can show any evidence this has actually compromised the process of developing a vaccine, it's just a bullshit excuse to raise distrust about vaccines
there is a reason that no one is trying to give you any fucking vaccines yet. because they're not ready. because as the scientists say, developing a vaccine is tricky and takes time.
you're trying to tell me that the vaccine being ready right now means that it's untrustworthy ... while the vaccine isn't ready yet. what the fuck kind of logic is that?
I'm not anti-vax. I'm anti rushed vax. Vaccines take time to get right for a reason.

Vaccines aren't safe because they're vaccines.
They're safe because the process they went though was rigorous.
If there's evidence that the process has been changed to be less rigorous, it's fair to be uncomfortable about them.
He obviously wasn't, but if Trump was able to get the vaccines out before election day, like he claimed, I wouldn't have taken them.
alright dipshit show the evidence

Simple as that.
thats a cop-out

AGAIN, A VACCINE ISN'T SAFE BECAUSE IT'S A VACCINE.
IT'S SAFE BECAUSE IT WENT THROUGH A RIGOROUS PROCESS.

At no point in your whining redditor posts did you mention the proletariat or bourgeoisie. Yes, we are indeed fucked thanks to liberalism!
You're being downvoted for being a rude cunt.

I'm not anti-vax, lol I've many in my lifetime. Just none that were rushed for political and economic reasons.
