Thanks AVI, I hadn't seen this article but it's great you've rubbished it before it likely got to me. Could you please do a video debunking the antivaccers or conspiracies in general. Would love that 👍

then what about it being an Rna vaccine... isnt this the first one of its kind like this? With that and the nanotech should this vaccine not be a concern for people?

I’m not anti-vax but I’ll skip this vaccine, just like I skip the annual flu vaccine...

Dr Avi, are you at all concerned at how quick the vaccine is going to be out? Isn’t the process for vaccinations and drugs etc a lot longer? I ask you this as I trust your opinion to be thoroughly thought out. I work in construction and have no clue, but just want what’s safest for myself and my children. Thank You.

For the vegans going crazy about shark squalene being used for the COVID vaccines: Rest assured, neither the Pfizer vaccine nor the Moderna vaccine contains squalene.
No sharks are being harmed for the only two COVID vaccines that actually look like they will hit the market.
Squalene is sometimes used as an adjuvant for antigen based vaccines. However, the Pfizer and Moderna COVID vaccines are mRNA based vaccines encapsulated in Lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (LPNs). So do any of the lipids contain squalene in these vaccines?
Pfizer LNPs: ionizable amino lipid, phospholipid, cholesterol and a PEGylated lipid.
Moderna LNPs: A proprietary Ionizable lipid and 3 commercially available lipids: cholesterol, 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DSPC), and PEG2000 DMG.
Neither the Pfizer vaccine LNPs nor the Moderna vaccine LNPs contain the squalene lipid that other mRNA LNPs vaccines have used (Squalene, Span 85, DOTAP).
So hopefully you can all shut up, get vaccinated as soon as this hits market, and stop asking me this question.
