Study Shows Vaccine Will ENHANCE Delta Infectivity

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

COVID-19 jabs continue to be pushed as the only solution to the pandemic, even as “breakthrough” infections increasingly occur. A group of Japanese researchers has also released research showing that the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant “is poised to acquire complete resistance” to existing COVID-19 jabs like Pfizer and BioNTech’s BNT162b2,1 now being sold as Comirnaty.

What’s more, when four common mutations were introduced to the Delta variant, Pfizer’s mRNA injection enhanced its infectivity, causing it to become resistant. A Delta variant with three mutations has already emerged,2 which suggests it’s only a matter of time before a fourth mutation develops, at which point complete resistance to Pfizer’s jab may be imminent.

mRNA COVID-19 Injection Made Delta Variant More Infectious

The spike protein used in mRNA COVID-19 vaccines consists of the original SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, without mutations. Multiple variants of concern (VOC) have emerged, however, which have numerous mutations and are highly infectious. As mutations increase, so do concerns over vaccine resistance and enhanced infectivity. As the researchers explained in bioRxiv, the preprint server for biology:3

“The receptor binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein binds to the host cell receptor ACE2, and the interaction mediates membrane fusion during SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 are mainly directed to the RBD and block the interaction between the RBD and ACE2. Most SARS-CoV-2 variants have acquired mutations in the neutralizing antibody epitopes of the RBD, resulting in escape from neutralizing antibodies.”

When a single mutation was added to the Delta spike, most of the anti-RBD antibodies still recognized it. This wasn’t the case with four mutations, however, which the researchers called Delta 4+. Not only was Delta 4+ not recognized, but infectivity was enhanced:4

“… we analyzed the Delta 4+ pseudovirus with four additional RBD mutations. Surprisingly, most BNT162b2-immune sera enhanced infectivity of the Delta 4+ pseudovirus in a dose-dependent manner at relatively low concentrations of BNT162b2-immune sera, but showed weak neutralization only at the highest concentration of the sera.

Especially, PFZ7 greatly enhanced the infectivity at relatively low serum concentration. Some sera, such as PFZ13 and PFZ14, did not show neutralizing activity even at the highest concentration of the sera.”

In short, while Pfizer’s COVID-19 jab still neutralized the Delta variant, when four common mutations were introduced to the RBD, the vaccine lost the ability to neutralize the variant and instead enhanced its infectivity.

Although Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2-immune sera neutralized the Delta variant, when four common mutations were introduced into the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the Delta variant (Delta 4+), some BNT162b2-immune sera lost neutralizing activity and enhanced the infectivity. This has implications for booster shots on the horizon as well, which are unlikely to be effective.

“A third round of booster immunization with the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine is currently under consideration,” the researchers explained. “Our data suggest that repeated immunization with the wild-type spike may not be effective in controlling the newly emerging Delta variants.”5

Despite the growing recognition that increasing injections may only make matters worse, President Biden said he has spoken with Dr. Anthony Fauci about giving booster shots at the five-month mark after the initial round of injections rather than waiting eight months, as previously suggested.6

Immune Escape: How the Injections Could Make Variants Worse

A number of experts have raised concerns that COVID-19 jabs and the mass vaccination program could worsen the pandemic by triggering the development of new variants, via a concept known as antigenic, or immune, escape.

A general principle in biology, vaccinology and microbiology is that if you put living organisms like bacteria or viruses under pressure, via antibiotics, antibodies or chemotherapeutics, for example, but don’t kill them off completely, you can inadvertently encourage their mutation into more virulent strains. Those that escape your immune system end up surviving and selecting mutations to ensure their further survival.

...

Mu, Lambda Variants Showing Resistance

Already, variants have emerged that are showing signs of vaccine resistance. August 30, 2021, the World Health Organization highlighted the mu variant as a variant of interest (VOI), stating it has “a constellation of mutations that indicate potential properties of immune escape.”12

As of August 31, 2021, 39 countries had reported mu cases.13 The lambda variant, which WHO designated as a VOI on June 14, 2021,14 also shows signs of increased infectivity and resistance to vaccines. Writing in medRxiv, researchers from Chile noted:15

“Our results indicate that mutations present in the spike protein of the Lambda variant of interest confer increased infectivity and immune escape from neutralizing antibodies elicited by CoronaVac.

These data reinforce the idea that massive vaccination campaigns in countries with high SARS-CoV-2 circulation must be accompanied by strict genomic surveillance allowing the identification of new isolates carrying spike mutations and immunology studies aimed to determine the impact of these mutations in immune escape and vaccines breakthrough.”

Is Natural Immunity Superior for Variants?

As further evidence of COVID shots’ waning effectiveness and the superiority of natural immunity, data presented July 17, 2021, to the Israeli Health Ministry revealed that, of the more than 7,700 COVID-19 cases reported since May 2021, only 72 occurred in people who had previously had COVID-19 — a rate of less than 1%. In contrast, more than 3,000 cases — or approximately 40% — occurred in people who had received a COVID-19 vaccine.16

In other words, those who were vaccinated were 6.72 times — nearly 700% — more likely to develop COVID-19 than those who had natural immunity from a prior infection. Speaking with journalist Daniel Horowitz, pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole explained that natural immunity produces broad immunity that can’t be matched by vaccination:17

“A natural infection induces hundreds upon hundreds of antibodies against all proteins of the virus, including the envelope, the membrane, the nucleocapsid, and the spike. Dozens upon dozens of these antibodies neutralize the virus when encountered again.

Additionally, because of the immune system exposure to these numerous proteins (epitomes), our T cells mount a robust memory, as well. Our T cells are the ‘marines’ of the immune system and the first line of defense against pathogens. T cell memory to those infected with SARSCOV1 is at 17 years and running still.”

A retrospective observational study published August 25, 2021,18 also found that natural immunity is superior to immunity from COVID-19 jabs, with researchers stating, “This study demonstrated that natural immunity confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease and hospitalization caused by the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2 two-dose vaccine-induced immunity.”

Further, according to a team of researchers from the Washington University School of Medicine, if you’ve had COVID-19 — even a mild case — you’re likely to be immune for life, as is the case with recovery from many infectious agents.19

Unfortunately, health officials aren’t making a distinction for those who have recovered from COVID-19 and continue to recommend injections for all, which may be adding fuel to the fire instead of extinguishing it.

Who really knows?

Reminds me of the Dusty Springfield song with words ‘...wishing and hoping and thinking and praying... .’

Call me skeptical.

This seems likely to ultimately be population reduction posing as inoculation efforts.

Good thing the Nazis did t know about this trick.

Well, the Fauci And Gates Show is dedicated to DE-populating the earth. So there’s that.

The numbers we are seeing seemingly contradict the notion that widespread vaccination - coupled with natural immunity - would keep future outbreaks smaller and less deadly. Instead, many states with high vaccination rates- including ones like Vermont, Maine, Washington, and Oregon - are seeing higher case spikes than ever, along with a rise in deaths.

Things are not working out the way they were supposed to. Possibly, as this article suggests, these imperfect vaccines are backfiring and making the problem worse than it would have been without them. Rather than take a pause in the vaccinate-everyone mania, they are doubling-down and becoming more aggressive in mandating vaccinations and demonizing the unvaccinated.

Keep in mind natural immunity will prompt mutations as well.

Welcome to Earth.

It can fester and mutate in the animules as well.

Naturally-acquired immunity is clearly superior to vaccine-induced immunity.

However.

Speculation such as “is poised to acquire” is not a “study”, it’s an opinion.

There was an alien-invasion TV show called "V" about ten years ago. There is an eerie comparison between the way the aliens operate and the way the left operates.

I have the series (which only lasted two seasons) on DVD, and in the episode I was watching last night, the aliens were planning on using a supposed miracle vaccine to actually eliminate large numbers of humans. Before they could launch the plan, a group of human resisters - aided by a turncoat alien - destroyed the lab where the vaccines were being stored.

Well, they did tell them the showers were for “delousing.”

Call me skeptical."

The stories/data of fully vax'd cases / hospitalizations / deaths are raising and in some cases, fast.

There would be zero need for a 3rd shot in less than 3 to 9 months if the first 2 shots were effective.

The injections are clearly loosing their effectiveness...whatever it may have originally been.

Below, is what's happening "naturally" with the injections. What the Japanese researchers found, is that when they introduced a 4th common mutation (over the 3 already "naturally" existing mutations), that not only do the mRNA vaccines loose their effectiveness (as seen in the example stories/data below), but that the "vaccines" actually enhance Delta's infectivity. The basic biology of it is explained in the article.

 

Reports Of Vaccinated Breakthrough Cases/Hospitalizations/Deaths Are On The Rise - Sharply

A sampling of stories from around the country, and world.

When looking at stories, or data, keep in mind the timeframe. Is the data they are sharing/reporting regarding the entire vaccination timeline (from Dec), when there were far fewer variants and far fewer participating in the experimental injections? Or, is it what's happening recently, in the last month or so with a growing pool of variants and participants in the experiments?

It's becoming clear that whatever effectiveness the injections may have, it wanes over a few short months and is far less effective against the current majority Delta variant. Thus the need for 3 and even 4 injections.

If nothing else, just look at the stories from Whatcom County WA below for the 3 periods of time:
February through June (5 months) = 98 cases,
Month of July alone = 95 cases,
Aug. 22 and 28 week only = 187 cases.

That's a significant, clear uptrend of breakthrough cases, the graph of which would look more like this:

Than this

Or this:

I wonder if the vaccines are actually destroying or neutralizing the natural immunity that many people who took them might have already had?
