COVID shots protect kids from long COVID—and don’t cause sudden death

To the skin or in the skin?
(Also, it figures that a pro-vax household would also allow that abomination of two utensils. /s)

Because they are making accurate statements to try to motivate as many people as possible to vaccinate, for the benefit of all of us.Sorry, do words matter? We know exactly why this article is authored the way it is
Of course, the poster I'm replying to has been banned (and thank you Aurich for recognizing what he was attempting to do early and acting), but I hope that others looking on will see what I've said.

"early" -- that account has been around longer than I have. They've been going into the deep end with Muskism of late.

Not just republicans, sadly.
Blumenthal, coauthor of the designed-to-kill-trans-kids KOSA bill, knows that the false "Social media is killing kids!" narrative he pushes is not only not backed by science but that his proposed "solutions" are actively harmful to kids, but true to a scheme that in its entirety follows the antivaxxer playbook to the letter, he views personal gain as more important than the children he weaponizes.

The act was never meant to actually pass. The point of the act was to beg the question, to point out the sexist hypocrisy of those who voted to ban abortion but refused to ban "spilling one's seed upon the ground", as the Bible calls it, and calls a sin.

I'm really looking forward to nasal vaccines that can actually prevent you from getting sick rather than just reducing disease impact

Not in the slightest.
Blumenthal was just singled out because he knows what he's pushing is harmful but does it anyway because his apparentl view that his career is more important than the children.
I should probably have left mention of him out, or included that the Republican support is 100x worse, with the other author blackburn being quoted that KOSA is specifically targeted, in her words, at "the trans" or how the heritage foundation supports KOSA explicitly because it harms the lgbtq community the most.
I was clumsily trying to highlight the larger problem that the "protect the kids from
While it's most viciously attacking the lgbtq community, we shouldn't forget that it also seeks to harm all youth as well.

"“This work is still in its early stages, and we need to validate these findings,” said co-senior study author Akiko Iwasaki, Sterling Professor of Immunobiology at Yale School of Medicine, in a press release."
Lol, they didnt even find consistent results in the testing.

Yep... for those new to the anti-science battleground/hellscape, the actual original bullshit started out as "medicine is a practice, not a science". Or "fact". And all of these "theories" and "practices" just all wilt in the face of actual FACT, as set forth in the Bible.
Oh, you were surprised that this was all from the creationist lunatic playbook?

The problem is that all these words have multiple meanings. Usually, you can determine which specific meaning is intended via context clues, but some people just aren't that smart.
(Actually, "theory" only really has one meaning, it's just that it's interpreted differently by different groups of people.)

Wow- those numbers are much bigger than I would have guessed. I guess it's a fairly broad definition of Long Covid... certainly that's not the Dianna Cowern version.

I think you read the data wrong. 43% of the people who developed long COVID were unvaccinated, not 43% of unvaccinated developed long COVID.
...so 148 total unvaccinated (136 + 12), and 28 total with long COVID, 12 from the unvaccinated group, meaning only 8.1% of the unvaccinated group developed long COVID (12 unvaccinated with long COVID / 148 total unvaccinated)TFA said:
However, only 16 of the 474 in the vaccinated group (622 total - 148 unvaccinated) developed long COVID, only 3.4%.
So 3.4% of the vaccinated group developed long COVID compared to 8.1% in the unvaccinated group.
Sounds like the conclusion is correct; these kids should definitely get their vaccine, but the vaccine in this small study reduced the risk of long COVID from 8.1% to 3.4%. Vaccination cut the risk of long COVID by more than half.

I miss the days when creationists tried to distance themselves from even more unfounded ideas by pointing out that it's not like they were flat earthers, anyone can SEE the earth is round, but you can't see the distant past so it's up to interpretation! I mean, they were wrong, but what makes it so awful is that now we've got flat earthers, GENUINE flat earthers, who are actually in CONGRESS at this point.

literally a 18th century joke on the stupidity of ‘dark ages’
(the idea people were so ignorant they actually believed one would fall off the world if you sailed pass the edge of a map)
then a fictionalized biography of Columbus by 19th century writer Washington Irving, was taken as historical by a credulous public, columnists, and popular media
English writer Samuel Rowbotham decided to take up the cause hang his hat on a profitable series of talks debates and books disputing standard astronomy of the day.
and then a bunch of bitter contrarian anti intellectuals clung to the misconception and Samuel Shenton founded a small fringe group dubbed the Flat Earth Society in the 1950s which after his death exploded in popularity

Well, only up to terminal velocity. You have to feel out the atmosphere first before knowing when it's alright to hug the earth.

So it turns out, people have long since worked out how to calculate how big of a sample set you need to reach a conclusion based on the results. That's why it's a "57-73%" and not "exactly 65%" reduction in risk. That's a rather meaningful improvement regardless of exactly where it falls within those broad error bars, so I'm not sure I see the benefit of spending the money and effort to follow up with a larger set size.

Nah.
The surviving 50% of the non vaccinated will boast "Call that hemorrhagic fever? See it didn't lay a finger on me."
(Just before violently hemorrhaging from their eyes and ears.)
