Prof, what’s the difference in reporting an ‘adverse’ effect and expected side effect?
I had the jab expecting to have a sore arm and flu like symptoms afterwards. Would these been seen scientifically (and reportable) as ‘adverse’ effects? |  | |  |

Well-you should expect a sore arm and perhaps a mild 'flu-like" condition for a few days. Normally these have been unreported, as most sensible folk understand this.
Of course for COVID this has gone out the window. In the US events (where this study was done) are self-reported to the VAERS system. This is where the dribbling loons have got the 'data' of high levels of adverse effects as anything from soreness at the injection site, to the real but very rare serious adverse events.
The UK system is the MHRA yellow card-and again there has been a lot of reporting of what are essentially not much.
The problem is of course reporting of minor and expected issues has muddied the waters to understand any real adverse reactions and act upon them. | | | |

I assumed that the data was skewed, but I didn’t know if it was daft people reporting sore arms, or the real nutters reporting the jab turned them into the Hulk. | | | |

Weasel words, if he really had a sore arm he is quite within his rights to report it as an adverse effect, whether it is expected or not.I
So are you going to suggest that the 20,000 dead people imagined it?
Did those who died during the very first Pfizer trial also imagine that they died as well.
Are you suggesting all those that Pfizer reported died during the first two months of rollout also imagined it.
I doubt you have even bothered to look at the actual numbers of serious adverse events reported in both the US and the EU.
As for branding concerned citizens "dribbling loons" that is an absolute insult, but typical of you. [Post edited 18 Jan 2022 18:46]

I was absolutely fine after the first two jabs, a bit of a sore arm but that was it, Gwyn... but the booster? God! I was awful for days. Splitting headaches, tight chest, heavy-limbed - just awful.
The first two jobs were AZ; the booster, Moderna. My question for those like the Prof who have a far better understanding than myself is was the reaction down to the mix-and-match nature of the three inoculations? |  |

The Moderna vaccine contains a far higher dose of mRNA than the Pfizer one. | | | |

I was pretty much the opposite, Loh.
Very rough for 48 hours after the first, slight sore arm only after the second and nowt at all after the booster.
AZ for first 2 Pfizer booster.
The question i was alluding to was because I was expecting to be ill with well known side effects, does it count as an adverse reaction? [Post edited 18 Jan 2022 18:47]

I had my booster on the Friday, was rough as toast on the Tuesday LFT was positive, had PCR on Wednesday that came back positive on Christmas Eve  |  |

Just an unlucky coincidence I’d have thought, Max. None of the jabs contain a live virus.
Sounds like you’ve had a lovely Christmas, mind.  | |

I suppose so, but if you were expecting it does it count as something you’d be likely to report?
I have wondered to myself over this last year how much of it could be psychosomatic? I mean, we’ve all heard from friends and family ‘how ill’ they’ve been. I’m sure we’ve all braced ourselves. Could that timorous mindset bring about a bodily reaction? | |

That’s what I’m getting at. There’s no way I’d report it as it was completely expected.
It seems that some are calling these well known side effects ‘vaccine injuries’.
Seems a bit nuts to me. | | | |

The sore arm and fever tends not to be down to the vaccine itself Loh, but more to how it’s packaged. To get a vaccine to work well you have to trick the immune system into thinking there is infection. The immune system is really split into two. Innate and adaptive. Innate is rapid but non-specific . Adaptive is specific to part of a pathogen (antigen-or more strictly an epitope) and gives rise to a high affinity specific response of antibody and/or T cells. This takes awhile to kick in-it’s a complex process. The innate system has receptors that are highly conserved between species that recognise repeated features on pathogens not present in hosts. There include single stranded RNA , various glycoproteins and bacterial repeated structures like flagella. They recognise a repeated pattern. They activate cells like macrophages and neutrophils and induce things like an anti viral state. They also switch on adaptive responses-without this signal it does not happen.
BUT they are very inflammatory and cause damage and fever.
We will come back to this point.
So in vaccines (in the case of the RNA vaccines it is the lipids they are packaged in) we add a component called an adjuvant, which I am sure you can guess, helps the vaccine by including components that stimulate innate immunity. Of course this also causes inflammation-soreness and redness and can lead to fever due to some of the signalling proteins called cytokines that are produced.

No reaction whatsoever to the first two jabs. Bit of a sore arm and slightly woozy feeling for a few hours after #3. Piece of piss. |  |

There are a few more general things that we've disagreed on in the past, but I wouldn't dream of getting into a technical disagreement with him as I'd be as out of my depth as a Cardiff fan in the Marianas Trench.
I cannot understand the mindset of some random Herbert on the internet thinking that he's remotely qualified to go toe to toe with someone holding a Professorship in a subject. | |
