Study Shows Vaccine Will ENHANCE Delta Infectivity

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.

something to come that will kill a third of mankind …

If these vaccines induce some form of ADE in everyone vaccinated, it is easy to see how 1/3rd of mankind could die…

Not just the vaccinated. Judging by some early warnings about exposing pregnant or breast feeding women to the vaccinated the “vaccines” may be somewhat contagious themselves.

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

So if I had Pfizer vaccine, I can still catch Covid, but then I will be super resistant?

Can the Vaxxed now sue for being talked into a rushed vaccine that INCREASES their chance of getting delta?

Well, the million dollar question is the immune response to a COVID infection that occurs after vaccination.

I think the fairest thing to say is, nobody knows. You would like to think that you would pick up nucleocapsid antibodies and boost your spike antibodies, but there's no data.

This study makes sense.

If we had herd immunized (not shut down or vaccinated) and treated with Z-packs, vitamins and Ivermectin, would we have been better off? Would the virus have run out of gas after 2 months?

I’m thinking, yes.

I was waiting for some fried chicken yesterday and the guy next to me was rubbing and moving his arm.

He said “I just got my first Vaccine”

I said “I hope you survive”

he started getting all defensive about how it was his choice.

I told him I respected that, and it should be an individual choice.

Then I asked him how much he trusted the govt to be truthful and only do things in his best interest.

That is my understanding - the “vaccines” waste the most important frontline defense of our natural immune system on the original wild spike protein ONLY. That leaves no protection for variants AND the “vaccinated” immune system is weakened in the fight against variants. PLUS natural immune response is to the WHOLE virus, not just to the constantly changed outer spike.

All of this was predicted by Geert Vanden Bossche. Just yesterday one of the trolls here at FR called him a charlatan and said “show me the study” - hard to have a study before the event (vaccination) occurs, but here’s your Japanese study in the OP confirming Geert’s prediction. Geert is an expert in this field and very pro-vaccines, but not this vaccine and not during a pandemic. He said this is the wrong weapon (only going after the little spike protein) at the wrong time (you don’t do mass vaccinations during the pandemic because that creates viral resistance and immune escape (see the OP article use and confirm these words).

No need to retain it, just bookmark it for future reference :).

Be informed, pros/cons. Don’t let the gov/media complex choose for you what data/news/information you get to see.

"I also kinda figure, since the vaccines never really promised to stop infection or contagion...

Not the way I remember it. I thought they promised the world.

==============================================

FYI, right from the source:

The covid vaccines were given emergency use authorization to "prevent" covid...NOT to reduce severity of disease, hospitalizations or deaths

Pfizer's EUA:
"the FDA decision is based on the totality of scientific evidence available showing that the product may be effective to prevent COVID-19 during the COVID-19 pandemic and that the known and potential benefits of the product outweigh the known and potential risks of the product. All of these criteria must be met to allow for the product to be used in the treatment of patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The EUA for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine is in effect for the duration of the COVID-19 EUA declaration justifying emergency use of these products, unless terminated or revoked (after which the products may no longer be used)."

Moderna's EUA: "Having concluded that the criteria for issuance of this authorization under Section 564(c) of the Act are met, I am authorizing the emergency use of Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19"

Janssens's EUA: "On February 27, 2021, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for emergency use of the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19 for individuals 18 years of age and older pursuant to Section 564 of the Act."

An excellent question posed to him. I'm sure he had an equally excellent response (not).

Of course they mutate and that is an issue with the vaccine with its limited focus on the s-protein. Especially with these incessant break-out cases. We are asking for problems.

My comment was jackassish.

Thank you for posting the truth. It absolutely was billed that way. Everyone I know that took it this summer said that very thing to me.

Everyone also said “safe and effective”, that was the catch phrase for a long time.

Then it was, if you take it and get Covid you will have mild symptoms. Then it was you might have symptoms but you won’t end up in the hospital. Then it was you might end up in the hospital, but you won’t end up in ICU. Then it was you might end up in ICU but you won’t die.

Then it was the unvaxxed are filling the hospitals and taking ALL the ICU beds. Then it was “most” of the ICU beds. Now, I think it is (I can’t keep up) most cases in the hospital are not serious.

The fact is, there are as many if not more vaxxed in the hospital as unvaxxed with Covid, and that is not even counting the adverse reactions they are trying to hide. And of course in the fine print they count undervaxxed and 2nd shot <14 days as unvaxxed. And they use data from last year or from January of this year for their data which skews all of it towards the unvaxxed to make it look worse than it really is

It’s enough to make my head spin.

I know that in GA’s own data, the difference between hospitalizations and deaths between vaxxed and “unvaxxed” is .7% and .4% respectively. And that is assuming the data or the tests are even reliable.

It’s all smoke and mirrors.

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

Your saying it's their hypothesis (i.e. speculation). But it's not. It's their theory, based on the outcome(s) they observed while doing their study in the lab.

What they are saying is, if a 4th mutation occurs "naturally," then the Delta variant will be "poised" (though not 100% guaranteed) to acquire complete resistance to the mRNA vaccines (like what happened in their study done in the lab).

That word, "poised" is key. It's a warning by actual scientists of what may/likely to occur should a 4th mutation happen with the Delta variant.

Indeed!

After 4+ years of the continuous coup against Trump (the outsider who took down 2 political "dynasties" in one election), the basturds finally found something they could leverage to get rid of him.
So they went all in with unprecedented actions (lockdowns, closures, restrictions on liberty, etc.) for a virus that...while serious for those with comorbidities and the elderly, is most certainly not unprecedented.

Now, they have moved the goalposts so many times and are so deep into their disastrous actions, they have little to no choice but to push ahead. And, the evil among them see this as a continuing opportunity to go full dictatorship.
