As a scientist I do not usually appeal to any platform of this kind to make a stand on vaccine-related topics. Daar werkte hij onder meer aan plannen voor de bestrijding van een mogelijke ebola-pandemie. More recently, he set up his own website to publicize his letter: We've put together a website to gather all information, scientific documents and interviews I've posted on this public health emergency. Vanden Bossche stelt het voor alsof een virus na slechts enkele mutaties al bestand kan zijn tegen een vaccin en zo erg dodelijk kan worden. Nog volgens hem zou zon nieuwe en dodelijkere variant geholpen kunnen worden doordat het coronavaccin ons aangeboren immuunsysteem zou verzwakken. Retweets. Since 2014, however, he has been trying (apparently unsuccessfully) to develop his so-called universal vaccine. De Vlaamse veearts Geert Vanden Bossche pleit ervoor om alle coronavaccinaties stop te zetten. The second benefit to Vanden Bossche's claim is that it places his purported invention as the miracle solution to the COVID-19 pandemic. Check out pictures, bibliography, biography and community discussions about Geert Vanden Bossche Thus if evidence emerges that particular variants do appear to influence vaccine efficacy, it should be possible to periodically reformulate the vaccines so that they better match the circulating strains. Een verhaal over een gepimpt cv, rooftijdschriften en nepconferenties. Even if it were evolving resistance, once again, the answer would be to reformulate the vaccine in order to include the altered antigens, the same conclusion made when considering the possibility that B. pertussis was evolving resistance or that evolutionary drift was leading to the predominance of strains not covered by the vaccine. His argument is that the COVID-19 vaccine is leaky, that it does not prevent transmission, allowing the evolution of nasty variants in the absence of symptomatic disease. There is always concern that a virus or bacteria can mutate to a form such that the antibodies produced by a vaccine against it no longer bind to it, so that the vaccine-induced immune response no longer kills or neutralizes the pathogen. All of these variants were discovered prior to any widespread vaccination program. In deze video legt immunoloog Herman Favoreel uit hoe NK-cellen werken (lees eronder voort): Hoever staat de wereld nu in het onderzoek naar NK-vaccins? Hij wijst erop dat hij geen soort van hobby viroloog is zoals hij wordt weggezet in de media en benoemt zijn ervaringen en diplomas waaronder bepaalde zaken die niet veel Vlamingen hem hebben voorgedaan. For example, just before the three-minute mark in the video interview of Vanden Bossche by McMillan, Vanden Bossche indicates hes a long-time vaccine developer. Samen zetten zij zich evenwel af tegen het beleid van keizer Jozef II en streefden zij naar de onafhankelijkheid van de Zuidelijke Nederlanden, hetgeen leidde tot de Brabantse Omwenteling (1789 - 1790). p.528-531. De statisten waren een politieke fractie tijdens de Brabantse Omwenteling, die aanhangers waren van de Staten. Aert van den Bossche or the Master of the Crispinus and Crispinianus-Legend (also known as Aert Panhedel, Aert van Panhedel, Arnoul de Panhedel, Arnoul Vanden Bossche and Harnoult van den Boske) was an Early Netherlandish painter of altarpieces, active in Brussels and Bruges in the late 15th century. Despite taking Vanden Bossches assertions extremely seriously, these high-profile alternative-media figures dont even do basic due diligence such as looking into McMillan, whos the man who interviewed Vanden Bossche, or the company McMillan is apparently affiliated with, Vejon Health. Antibiotica werken rechtstreeks in op de bacterie. Bedrijven krijgen massaal phishingmails die van sociale secretariaten zoals Acerta lijken te komen, oplichters bellen Neen, Zelenski wordt niet gevolgd door een geheime dubbelganger, wel door zijn bodyguard, CHECK - Waarom sommige mensen hun eID-kaart in de microgolfoven steken. Its at this point, though, that Dr. Vanden Bossche throws in a twist specific to COVID-19 in which he argues that undertaking a mass vaccination campaign during a pandemic is dangerous. Door verder te surfen gaat u akkoord met. They shall only be contradicted by science. Snoeck noemt het onomwonden technische nonsens die voor een niet-wetenschapper moeilijk te doorprikken zijn. Exactly. So its not surprising that Dr. Vanden Bossches letter reminds me of Andrew Wakefields warning about the MMR vaccine. It appears that Vejon Health is a dormant company, if it exists at all. Nog meer mensen laten sterven?. But only ongoing clinical trials will show whether vaccinated individuals recognise SARS-CoV-2 variants differently, and whether mutations decrease vaccine protection in some vaccinated individuals. Vanden Bossche asserts that COVID-19 vaccines pose a unique risk of producing dangerous variants in part because people who are vaccinated will be spreading the mutations while asymptomatic. Duitsland blokkeert goedkeuring, Auto rijdt binnen in huis in Mol, bestuurder pleegt vluchtmisdrijf. Omdat het coronavirus zal blijven rondwaren, zullen volgens hem de specifieke antistoffen steeds worden opgeroepen zodra het lichaam opnieuw met het virus wordt geconfronteerd. Now, lets compare the passage above to what Andrew Wakefield wrote about MMR and vaccines: Antibiotic use has selected out multiply resistant, more dangerous, and more pathogenic strains of bacteria. Unfortunately, it remains untouched by those who have the power to act. Je krijgt daardoor minder besmettingen en daardoor ook minder mutaties. Notable people with the surname include: Aert van den Bossche (fl. How long can one ignore the problem when there is at present massive evidence that viral immune escape is now threatening humanity? Hij pleit daartegen, in de eerste plaats omdat deze vaccins volgens hem de natuurlijke immuniteit, die bescherming biedt tegen een veel breder spectrum van pathogenen dan het vaccin, kan verdringen. To follow Dr . Dit artikel werd gepdatet op 1/4/2021 om 9:26. The classic example of a leaky vaccine is actually the one for Mareks disease, caused by a herpesvirus that infects chicken and causes lymphoma among other illnesses. ", The notion that lockdowns have weakened our innate immune system is equally without basis. Please read and share: https://t.co/0Fupw9JInP #COVID19 pic.twitter.com/I24mSjpVKM, Geert Vanden Bossche (@GVDBossche) March 6, 2021. Het werkt op verschillende fronten tegelijk. Skip to main content Geert Van Den Bossche ), lets just review what Wakefield claimed about the MMR vaccine back in 2019. Volgens hem kan dat vooral gebeuren wanneer mensen slechts n dosis krijgen, of te lang moeten wachten op een tweede. Vaccinologists, scientists and clinicians are blinded by the positive short-term effects in individual patents, but dont seem to bother about the disastrous consequences for global health. En wat doen we ondertussen dan? Hij werkte in zijn carrire ook aan vaccins, maar publiceerde daar zeer weinig over en bleef nooit lang aan het werk in de sector. Evidence exists that they achieve this effect even against the variant strains of SARS-CoV-2. This sharply contrasts with conventional targeting of natural immune responses as induced by conventional vaccines. As I noted when Andrew Wakefield explicitly used the example of Mareks disease to claim that a leaky vaccine to MMR would cause a global catastrophe by selecting for deadly measles variants, yes, a leaky vaccine changes the selective pressure and permits the evolution of highly virulent strains because the virus retains the ability to continue to spread among vaccinated populations, leading to the vaccine selecting for the most virulent mutations. And so am I. I searched PubMed for what I expected to be an extensive publication record on vaccines and foundeight publications, the most recent of which was from 1994 and none of which have anything to do with vaccines. The molecular weight cut-off of microcapsules is determined by the reaction between alginate and polylysine. Vanden Bossche's scientific argument in broad terms is that the current COVID-19 vaccines, through a mechanism analogous to antibiotic resistance, will create mutant variants of the virus that escape the protection of those vaccines. The production of targeted antibodies obviously creates a different response than a natural infection because "you're producing antibodies against specific needs therefore you have a limited targeted immune response, not the whole response that you see after an infection." 455 () [US] 2021/06/16() 09:32:54. This fallacy is one of the anti-vaccine movement's favorites, and as such his claims have been amplified extensively by the biggest names in that movement. Frans historicus Emmanuel Todd (volledig interview): Derde Wereldoorlog is al begonnen, Met 3000 kwamen ze naar Brussel op 26 februari 2023, Europe for Peace. De geschiedenis toont echter aan dat het helemaal niet gevaarlijk is om massaal te vaccineren tijdens een epidemie. This is only going to be possible provided it escapes to the S-specific Abs that are momentarily raised in previously asymptomatically infected subjects. 721. Its been accompanied by a video interview posted towhere else?antivaxxer Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.s Childrens Health Defense website. Author of 'From Midnight to Moonlight' - a book about cats and angels. Follow More from Medium Mehek Kapoor in. Deze pagina is voor het laatst bewerkt op 2 nov 2022 om 05:23. First of all, note how Dr. Vanden Bossche is conflating vaccine-induced immunity with natural immunity. De inhoud is, tenzij anders aangegeven, beschikbaar onder. He also states that hes worked with GAVI: The Vaccine Alliance and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, although searching the websites, I could find no reference to him other than a report written by him and others to GAVI about progress on an Ebola vaccine. Mass vaccination programs, he claims, are "turning vaccinees into asymptomatic carriers" who can unknowingly spread these more dangerous strains by "shedding infectious variants." It protects us from a multitude of pathogens, thereby preventing these pathogens from causing disease. If you claim to be not antivaccine but your message is so attractive to a rabid antivaxxer and leader of the antivaccine movement like Del Bigtree that he spends an hour promoting it, you are either deluding yourself about being not antivaccine, or youre a useful idiot for the antivaccine movement, possibly both. Even more hilariously (and a bit uncomfortably) Frei is pretty spot on when she notes: However, this is on very shaky ground. As those have stronger affinity for the pathogen (e.g., virus) and can reach high concentrations, they can quite easily outcompete our natural Abs for binding to the pathogen/virus.

Samen zetten zij zich evenwel af tegen het beleid van keizer Jozef II en streefden zij naar de onafhankelijkheid van de Zuidelijke Nederlanden, hetgeen leidde tot de Brabantse Omwenteling (1789 - 1790). Integendeel, zegt vaccinoloog Corinne Vandermeulen (KU Leuven), en ze somt de epidemien op die in het verleden net onder controle gebracht zijn door te vaccineren: Cholera, ebola, polio. Hes arguing that vaccinating the elderly protects them, but because the virus will therefore be forced to infect the young it will only be able to do so if it can somehow escape immunity to the antibodies to spike protein (S-specific Abs) transiently raised in asymptomatic subjects. Hij beweert dat de coronavaccins ertoe zullen leiden dat het coronavirus verder muteert en zo bestand wordt tegen die vaccins. Again, the possibility that COVID-19 might be developing resistance to vaccines or immune escape is not a reason to halt the vaccination campaign. Er bestaat geen bewijs dat de beweringen van Geert Vanden Bossche kan ondersteunen. 23.4K. However, as we age, we will increasingly face situations where our innate immunity (often called the first line of immune defense) is not strong enough to halt the pathogen at the portal of entry (mostly mucosal barriers like respiratory or intestinal epithelia). Dat klopt niet, de onbestaande functie werd vermeld bij enkele publicaties.

RNA viruses like SARS-CoV-2 do mutate. De experten zitten op twitter fact-checkers te liken en roepen mij op aan de juiste kant te staan. Ultimately, most vaccines are based on a recombinant spike protein sequence. This is a very confused argument. Je kan gerust zon idee als het NK-vaccin voorstellen, vindt Leroux-Roels, Maar het lijkt me beter om in een epidemie te werken met een benadering waarvan we weten dat ze veilig is en op korte termijn werkt. Daar kan je geen grote bevolkingsgroepen uit voorzorg mee vaccineren (wat dus wel kan met de huidige coronavaccins). And its true. "Zelfs van levende kunstenaars als Dillemans worden er tekeningen Herman De Croo gaat extra vergoeding bovenop pensioen schenken aan Stichting tegen Kanker, Mannen getuigen over seksueel geweld tijdens de oorlog: "Het is erger dan afgeranseld worden", Zus van Olivier Vandecasteele reageert op uitspraak Grondwettelijk Hof: "Beste dat wij konden verwachten", Acteur Tom Sizemore (61), bekend van "Saving private Ryan" en "Heat", overleden. Variants are "a thing to keep an eye on," Saad Omer, an epidemiologist who serves as director of the Yale Institute for Global Health, told us in a phone interview. [3] [4] Het probleem is volgens Vanden Bossche dat de specifieke antistoffen van het vaccin (dat gebaseerd is op de oorspronkelijke Wuhan-variant) steeds minder werkzaam zullen zijn. One answer is, why not? It has been observed that over time Mareks disease virus has become more virulent, and this has been attributed classically to a leaky vaccine effect. "It isn't," he told us. 10.8K. The current monkeypox outbreak is a result of the Covid vaccinations that are connected to Covid reinfections and the related reactivation of cytotoxic t-cells, claims Dr. Vanden Bossche. At this point, I will also mention that, because Ed Nirenberg produced an excellent rebuttal of Dr. Vanden Bossches mangling of immunology in his letter, Ill stick more to my lane (mostly, anyway), although there will be some overlap. Ik ben onafhankelijk en neutraal, heb geen aandelen bij vaccin fabrikanten en ben niet gebonden aan contracten die bepalen wat ik al dan niet mag zeggen. Immunocompromised individuals with persistent COVID-19 infections, in particular, may play a huge role in the development of variants. 39. Amusingly, as I was looking this post over earlier this morning for a final edit, I saw that no less a grifter than RFK Jr. himself had published a rebuttal to Dr. Vanden Bossches open letter by someone named Rosemary Frei, The Not-So-Hidden Agenda Behind Bossches Concern Over COVID Mass Vaccination. My statements are based on nothing else but science. Geert Vanden Bossche is een Belgische dierenarts[1], viroloog[1], zelfverklaard mRNA-vaccinatie specialist en onafhankelijk onderzoeker en adviseur op het gebied van vaccins. (Truly, those were simpler times.). The role of spike protein variability inT cell immunity is likely to be elucidated in experimental studies in the next few months; a priori, the enhanced repertoire of T cell epitopes makes the loss of cytotoxic activity or recognition improbable. De nieuwsombudsman van VRT NWS ontving veel vragen over Vanden Bossche en ook de meeste berichten die we kregen via check@vrtnws.be gingen de voorbije weken over Vanden Bossche. Paradoxically, the only intervention that could offer a perspective to end this pandemic (other than to let it run its disastrous course) is VACCINATION. Its hard for me not to believe that hes grifting, and this demonization of existing COVID-19 vaccines based on speculative science and no strong data yet is a sales pitch. Freya Van den Bossche (born 26 March 1975) is a Belgian ( Flemish) politician and daughter of prominent former Belgian politician Luc Van den Bossche. Before this open letter, I hadnt recalled ever having heard of Dr. Vanden Bossche before, so I looked around. She is member of the SP.a political party, and she was Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Budget and Consumer Protection in the Belgian federal government. This is not all that impressive, given that Snopes could only identify two patent applications in Vanden Bossche's name both for "immunologic formulations" and both of these patents, records indicate, had their "applications terminated before publication.". De artikels die hij over vaccins schreef, verschenen enkel in rooftijdschriften (tijdschriften waarin je tegen betaling studies kunt publiceren zonder dat die door wetenschappelijke collega's zijn gecontroleerd).[3]. Likes. (I kid you not.) Massavaccinatie middenin een pandemie, (zorgt) voor druk op virusstammen (om te muteren, veranderen naar een nieuwe vorm dus, red. So it is scientifically based but the conclusions of the chapters are accessible to laymen as is the entire chapter "Answers to Key Questions" Is het Russisch volk goedgelovig en volgzaam? Hij wordt op YouTube voorgesteld als een wereldwijde vaccinautoriteit met een grote reputatie, maar dat klopt niet. Dan vraag ik me af waar we mee bezig zijn. As we explain below, this scenario is speculative, scientifically flawed, logically inconsistent, and belied by actual data. Several variations of the originally isolated strain have emerged since the start of the pandemic, and some of these variants are more infectious, contagious, or possibly deadly. Zie het als een kopieermachine, legt immunoloog Hans-Willem Snoeck (Columbia University, New York)op zijn beurt uit.
