I hear a lot of concerns and questions about the COVID vaccines - here are some comments that hopefully make sense. 1) Masks prevent you from spreading your respiratory droplets (potentially laden with COVID) to others. They still have a role with unvaccinated ppl. Sry it’s true

The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines contain NO active virus, and they did not rely on any aborted fetal tissue for viral culture or reproduction like some have inaccurately suggested. No preservatives either (thimoserol or mercury) which is why they need to be kept frozen. 3/x

The mRNA sounds scary if you don’t understand cell biology. The mRNA enters the cells, and is then translated (outside of the nucleus, so no chance to alter DNA) into a sequence of amino acids that builds the recognizable spike protein. The mRNA is rapidly degraded. 4/x

Now, your body responds to this spike protein as foreign and it creates antibodies against it using your own immune cells. This is THE SAME process you would undergo if you were infected with SARS-CoV2, with much lower risk, because you don’t actually contract the virus. 5/x

Here’s a great common sense risk assessment tool. Carry your decision out to the end point, assuming you’re wrong, then look at the consequences/results. If masks aren’t necessary, then we all ended up wearing a little cloth on our faces for nothing. No other downside. /1

This decision was not taken lightly, and only made after thorough discussions together and with our own maternal fetal medicine expert physician, who recommended that Candice receive the vaccine based on her personal risk/benefit profile. 15/x

It may not be necessary for all pregnant/lactating women to receive the vaccine, but our hope is that women will have the courage to discuss the vaccine with their physicians and engage in shared decision-making based on their risk profile. 16/x

Approximately 44,000 women have gotten pregnant after COVID. No sterilization issues noted. But they did have much higher rates of hospitalization and severe disease compared to other healthy people of the same age, which is dangerous for the mom and baby. 9/x

The two proteins are not similar enough for the vaccine to cause antibodies against syncytin-1. If they were, then we would have seen significant issues with infertility during the pandemic, since the spike protein from the virus and the vax are the same. 8/x

Earlier this week, I tweeted out the ACTUAL ingredient list for the vaccine. mRNA sequence. Salts for pH adjustment. Fatty acids for stability. Sugars and polyethylene glycol (PEG) which is in many safe vaccines and medications commonly used, to include OTC Miralax 10/x

Once the antibodies are built up, your body can fight the coronavirus very early during infection which is why you see the 95% reduction in moderate to severe cases. There is a former employee of Pfizer (hasn’t worked there in almost 10 yrs) That has discussed syncytin-1. 6/x

Syncytin -1 is a protein expressed in the development of the placenta, and it shares a very small amount of protein pattern to the spike protein. This has given rise in some circles to the concern for infertility, or “female sterilization” as some people have suggested. 7/x

Incidence of flu and TDaP vaccinations in pregnancy has risen significantly since 2012 to decrease mother and child morbidity. Both of these virus-based vaccines have been shown to be safe and are now recommended in pregnancy (CDC data). 13/x

Many people from the UK reached out and thought to offer their comments. The US and UK are taking slightly different approaches with regard to the vaccine in pregnancy. The US has not said that the vaccine shouldn’t be offered like the UK has. 12/x

Oh, and you’ll be all but ensuring another economic shut down, which makes every personal and economic sacrifice our country made for the past 3-4 months completely worthless. So, based on common sense alone (forget all the ACTUAL DATA), the decision is easy. Wear a mask. /3

If masks ARE necessary to prevent the spread of COVID, and you choose not to wear one for whatever ill-conceived reason, then you are contributing to the spread of a poorly understood disease without any knowledge of its long term consequences to your family/friends /2

the more we let this virus fester and transmit to a significant portion of the population, the more chances we give it to mutate into a strain that doesn’t respond as well to our vaccinations. I don’t think anybody wants us to move backward as a society.

2) if you had COVID, you still see an immune boost from vaccination. Your immune system forms antibodies to any number of proteins that arise from breaking down the natural virus- it may not be against the most important proteins to prevent disease/transmission

3) the vaccine is safe. VAERS data is raw and doesn’t correct for baseline rates of issues in the general population. Simply put- you are MUCH more likely to have issues from COVID compared to the vaccine. Plus, if you become infected, you can/will infect others.

... it’s about all the people you could infect that may have severe disease like a) people who can’t receive the vaccine, b) vaccinated people that didn’t have a robust immune response, and c) other people that are choosing not to get vaccinated.

4) no, there is no such thing as “vaccine shedders.” Just no. It doesn’t happen. Even if it did (which I can’t stress enough that it doesn’t), it would pose NO threat to other people because it is not live virus and there are no concerns about the spike protein by itself. ⬇️

6) “If the vaccines are so good, why do I need to get vaccinated, especially if I’m highly unlikely to get seriously ill from COVID?” This is an astute question. The answer is that it isn’t just about you. In addition to COVID being MUCH more dangerous than any vaccine...
