(as well as the actual studies showing the spike protein is indeed all over vaccine recipients),
Could you link me to those specific studies?
Also, isn't one of the safety nets, is the spike protein is a different shape than the COV2SARS?
What originally threw up red flags about these vaccines(originally I believed it to be relatively safe compared to other vaccines) for me was the demand that the already recovered have to take it. That should be a red flag for everyone
My gut instinct was to question why those who have had it, needed a shot as well...!!??!!
But the explanation that I had initially read, made some sense....not everyone who has had the virus has developed the same level of antibodies, and concerns of future variants breaking through your protection from antibodies etc that you developed.
A vaccine would increase your antibodies etc, already created.
Regardless, when they were saying y'all previously infected by the virus still needed a shot, and the vaccine shots were limited, I still thought you all should be put at the end of the line and it was not as important for you all to receive one as those who never had the virus.
Now, studies are showing that not only the vaccinated can catch the Delta variant, although mostly not in a serious way....
Those who have previously had COVID, are now showing breakthrough cases with the Delta variant and are passing the virus along, as the vaccinated are doing...
So maybe they were right....? You may need additional protection from future, more contagious variants to keep yourself from being a spreader???

Having said all that... I had biology, chemistry, and physics (for one semester) in high school ...decades ago, and although i had some interest in it when young, I haven't taken a science course since, that I remember....went in to the business field instead, so by no means am i any kind of expert... I just have a desire to learn and educate myself as much as I can now...on this COV2 and the vaccines...

I read something yesterday that I need to research further.... Maybe you know?
That the T and B cells created by the draining of the vaccine in to the lymph nodes are the critters that are suppose to give us immunity from catching the virus are not doing such....that's why we are still able to catch the disease....
Is this correct? Am I understanding that correctly? Basically, the antibodies created through vaccination is working and preventing grave infections, but the vaccine is not working in preventing infections which involves the T &B Cells? And could this be, because all of the remaining spike proteins are not making it to the lymph nodes to trigger the T and B cells? Or because the spike protein is a different shape?
