🔒 Closed Bill Gates says COVID-19 vaccines are 'missing two key things'

Bill Gates, who donated $1.75 billion to COVID-19 vaccine development and fighting the pandemic, said this week that while the currently available vaccines prevent severe illness and death, they aren't durable enough and should be better at preventing infection.

The Microsoft founder, whose net worth Forbes pegs at $135.9 billion, made the comments in a Twitter discussion with Devi Sridhar, the chair of global public health at the University of Edinburgh Medical School.

"The vaccines we have prevent severe disease and death very well but they are missing two key things," Gates said to a question about what would make the biggest difference in ending the pandemic.

"First they still allow infections ('breakthrough') and the duration appears to be limited. We need vaccines that prevent re-infection and have many years of duration."

A recent University of Copenhagen study found that the rapid spread of the omicron variant, which is now responsible for 98.3% of new cases in the United States, according to the CDC, is likely due to its ability to better evade immunity offered by vaccines and prior infection than previous variants.

"Once Omicron goes through a country then the rest of the year should see far fewer cases so Covid can be treated more like seasonal flu," Gates said Tuesday.

Gawa ka po ng isang thread na naghihiwalay ng mga point of views about point of views of vaxx and unvaxx... mga arguments ng mga international at local covid issues.

Tulad halimbawa ng point of views ng mga unvaxx.

Isa sa point of view nila is.

1. What if unvaxx covid survivors were experiencing restrictions/discrimination, when infact they are immune to covid....And also according to pathology and immunology and genome experts, They can be a source of anti-covid or pangotra covid.

2. Some professional doctors around the world who are now experienced multiple treats from big pharmas are E×ρréššing supports for alternative way to prevent the infections of covid other than vaccines....For example ivermectin etc. but according to them betting their licences as a professional medical doctors is not an easy situation and to lost job and their profession just because they are just trying to exposed the irregularity.

3. Why some country specially in the Philippines, covid vaccines is the only way to survive on covid when infact covid vaccines can be replaced by a counterfeit supply or a fake supply and can be leads to much more massive risk. And also the vaccines in the market are under EUA or Under clinical trials only. The covid vaccines are infact less effective because of its specification is per variant which is according to genome experts, each vaccine is specifically made to that one particular covid variant. And why censorship in media is obviously seen? some doctors E×ρréššed that transparency in covid vaccines and adverse effects datas are suppressed.


And more point of views from unvaxx community can be E×ρréššed to your thread.
