Snoeck vergelijkt NK-cellen met een ongeleid projectiel: Elke cel die er niet normaal uitziet, wordt gedood. 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. He is no stranger to vaccines. Geert Vanden Bossche Contribute to IMDb. Because of their fast (NK cells) and universally protective effect, Univac vaccines are uniquely suited to prevent pathogenic agents from escaping host immune responses as of an early stage of infection or immune-mediated disease. Dr Vanden Bossche also coordinated the Ebola vaccine Unfortunately, Dr. Vanden Bossches open letter has gone viral and is being spread on antivaccine social media everywhere as slam dunk evidence that COVID-19 vaccines will cause a global catastrophe by selecting for the evolution of highly transmissible and deadly variants of COVID-19 that will escape immunity due to vaccines. Specifically, scientists have long been pointing out that, the more we let COVID-19 circulate, the more likely virus variants that can escape the immune response to the vaccine (and/or to natural infection) are to emerge, and they use this argument as a rationale for vaccinating as many people as possible as fast as possible, in order to slow that circulation of the virus to as low a rate as possible, thus reducing the opportunities for strains resistant to the vaccine and strains able to re-infect previously infected people to emerge. In deze video verwijst vaccinoloog Isabel Leroux-Roels naar de Spaanse griep, die ook minder dodelijk werd (lees eronder voort): Vanden Bossche zegt dat hij een alternatief heeft voor de huidige coronavaccins: een NK-vaccin, gebaseerd op zogenoemde natural killer-cells. This new type of vaccines harnesses the power of the immune system by unlocking the untapped potential of self-centered Natural Killer (NK) cells capable of recognising these unconventional antigens. Menu. Noting how quickly Dr. Vanden Bossches letter was embraced by antivaxxers, Frei then writes: But from my experience as a former long-time medical writer and journalist (1988-2016) particularly a four-month stint with media-relations giant FleishmanHillard in 1994 (yes, Ive worked for the dark side) this has all the hallmarks of a drug-company astroturf campaign. These assumptions come without scientific studies or data to support them and indeed are not always reasonable. As a dedicated virologist and vaccine expert I only make an exception when health authorities allow vaccines to be administered in ways that threaten public health, most certainly when scientific evidence is being ignored. 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. The ongoing phase 3 trial of an adenovirus-vectored spike-based vaccine (Johnson & Johnson, NCT04505722) in South Africa, where the 501Y.V2 (B.1.351) strain with the Glu484Lys substitution is rapidly replacing pre-existing variants,11 might provide an opportunity to examine this question. Hoe schandalig is het brugpensioen van Marc Leemans? Hij kreeg achteraf de wind van voren van het parlement, maar 'antivaxer' Geert Vanden Bossche vertelde woensdag in het debat over vaccinatieplicht niet uitsluitend onzin. This sharply contrasts with conventional targeting of natural immune responses as induced by conventional vaccines. Men noemt mij een stalker omdat ik oproep tot debat. As a result, I thought it worth providing this rebuttal and links to an even better rebuttal, to SBM readers in order to disseminate this information more widely. 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. On the contrary, I can assure you that each of the current vaccines have been designed, developed and manufactured by brilliant and competent scientists. Een drietal weken geleden kwam viroloog en vaccin ontwikkelaar Geert Vanden Bossche naar buiten met een ernstige bezorgdheid omtrent de massavaccinatie tegen covid-19 die momenteel wereldwijd in ongeziene vaart aan de gang is. A recent review article suggests that immune escape by variants of SARS-CoV-2 is a possibility, but one that hasnt been definitively observed or demonstrated yet: So is there cause for concern? De geschiedenis toont echter aan dat het helemaal niet gevaarlijk is om massaal te vaccineren tijdens een epidemie. Again, the possibility that COVID-19 might be developing resistance to vaccines or immune escape is not a reason to halt the vaccination campaign. Hij werkte in zijn carrire ook aan vaccins, maar publiceerde daar zeer weinig over en bleef nooit lang aan het werk in de sector. Geert Vanden Bossche Stokes Fear of COVID-19 Vaccine To Promote His Own Flawed 'Solution' Anti-vaccine activists are promoting a veterinarian's claim that the only way to prevent a future. Before this open letter, I hadnt recalled ever having heard of Dr. Vanden Bossche before, so I looked around. Because, among other things: 1) Neither in the original March 6 piece nor his March 13 follow-up does Vanden Bossche provide any direct, non-theoretical evidence that this is happening; 2) The natural antibodies that are produced after encountering a pathogen are only a small part of a quick, effective and broad-based first-line immune-system defense known as innate or passive immunity which in fact largely comprises other components; and 3) Vanden Bossche downplays the effectiveness of the antibodies our bodies naturally produce as part of the second-line (adaptive) part of the immune system that also has served us extremely well for millennia. Indeed, antibodies (Abs) produced by our own immune system can be considered self-made antiviral antibiotics, regardless of whether they are part of our innate immune system (so-called natural Abs) or elicited in response to specific pathogens (resulting in so-called acquired Abs). I will note that it is truly astounding how many statements that a supposed expert in immunology and vaccines can make that are just plain out-and-out wrong. Sufficient scientific evidence has been brought to the table. 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. 60 ID:Ofxf3u990 ? Laat ons een sereen, publiek debat voeren over de vragen die van belang zijn in plaats van te twitteren. Your membership is the foundation of our sustainability and resilience. 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. 10.8K. 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). Deze website maakt gebruik van cookies. Is het Russisch volk goedgelovig en volgzaam? He reminds me of another doctor who spread misinformation about COVID-19 vaccination based on an unbending principle of immunology to justify his concerns, without any clinical or epidemiological evidence to support it. Wij staken ons licht op bij verschillende vakgenoten en hun oordeel over zijn stelling is eensluidend: Technische nonsens. So, as we grow up, we increasingly mount pathogen-specific immunity, including highly specific Abs. In the case of antibiotics, its called developing antibiotic resistance; in the case of vaccines, its called immune escape. Als de dosis die je van antibiotica neemt, niet hoog genoeg is, of als je ze niet lang genoeg neemt, zullen bacterin die er resistent tegen zijn zich verder verspreiden. Snoeck noemt het onomwonden technische nonsens die voor een niet-wetenschapper moeilijk te doorprikken zijn. Is het levensgevaarlijk om massaal te vaccineren tijdens een epidemie, zoals Vanden Bossche zegt? Since 2014, however, he has been trying (apparently unsuccessfully) to develop his so-called universal vaccine. Its another step in the decades-long erasure of the fact that our sophisticated and highly effective immune systems work well and dont need any assistance from the biomedical/pharmaceutical industry. Speaking with McGill University's Office for Science and Society, Dr. Paul Offit, a doctor and vaccine scientist who serves as director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, explained that no matter where one is or was quarantined, you are still constantly exposed to microorganisms challenging your immune system. The second benefit to Vanden Bossche's claim is that it places his purported invention as the miracle solution to the COVID-19 pandemic. They do not. "In de wetenschap weten we nog lang niet alles, dat klopt, maar als iemand een nieuwe claim maakt moet hij wel uitleggen hoe hij dat onderzocht heeft, wie de controlegroep was, enzoverder. VRT journalist Vincent Merckx melde dat Vanden Bossche niet wou reageren, die informatie is dus vals. 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]. This particular coronavirus happens to have a proofreading mechanism that results in a low mutation rate compared to that of a lot of other RNA viruses, such as, for example, the influenza virus. Geert Vanden Bossche, Stefan Bouckaert, C DEMUYNCK, Guy Mommens, Alex Van Zeveren (UGent) and Jean Paul Remon (UGent) ( 1992 ) AMERICAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH. Central to the concept in his article, published via the in-house journal of the American Association of Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS), an organization I like to refer to as the John Birch Society of medical societies given its penchant for conspiracy theories and pseudoscience, was that the MMR vaccine, by selecting for more aggressive measles strains, could result in a sixth extinction event. National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, Steven P. Novella, MD Founder and Executive Editor, David H. Gorski, MD, PhD Managing Editor, allowing infection and natural herd immunity to occur is better, American Association of Physicians and Surgeons, The Sixth Extinction: Vaccine Immunity and Measles Mutants in a Virgin Soil, excellent rebuttal of Dr. Vanden Bossches mangling of immunology, proofreading mechanism that results in a low mutation rate, Andrew Wakefield wrote about MMR and vaccines, Nirenbergs demolition of Dr. Vanden Bossches nonsense, The Not-So-Hidden Agenda Behind Bossches Concern Over COVID Mass Vaccination, surgical oncologist at the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute, American College of Surgeons Committee on Cancer Liaison Physician, Ear Acupuncture for Procedural Pain in Neonates: More Randomized Controlled Nonsense. This will, indeed, require large vaccination campaigns. Archeologen tonen verborgen gang die ze ontdekten in 4.500 jaar oude piramide van Cheops in Egypte, Het kraakpaleis werd ontruimd, terwijl het een mogelijk alternatief biedt, Open brief: Boos op onze politieke leiders. Dat zijn cellen die bij ons immuunsysteem horen. Were in a race with the new variants, Sara Del Valle, a computational epidemiologist at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico explained in a March 2021 feature in the scientific journal Nature. His argument sounds a lot like an argument Andrew Wakefield once made for MMR. Geert Vanden Bossche is a scientist who published an open letter warning of global catastrophe due to deadly variants of COVID-19 selected for by mass vaccination. Training is achieved by regular exposure to a myriad of environmental agents, including pathogens. Nog volgens hem zou zon nieuwe en dodelijkere variant geholpen kunnen worden doordat het coronavaccin ons aangeboren immuunsysteem zou verzwakken. By educating these cells in ways that enable them to durably recognize and target Coronavirus-infected cells, our immune system could be perfectly armed for a targeted atack to the universe of Coronaviruses prior to exposure. 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). Come to think of it, the similarities between Dr. Vanden Bossche and Andrew Wakefield strike me as stronger than ever now, given that, as well documented by Brian Deer, Wakefield basically published his fraudulent science to support the claim that the MMR vaccine causes autism in order to make a market for his own single vaccine against the measles. Its a very interesting question. As I go through Dr. Vanden Bossches open letter, Ill point out the similarities, while also noting differences when they occur. And Dr. Vanden Bossches concerns are based on Science! Na enkele dagen van stilte nam Vanden Bossche vandaag zijn camera en reageerde met een video op hetgeen in de media is verschenen. Bij sommige besmettingen kunnen NK-cellen wl specifieker te werk gaan, stipt immunoloog Herman Favoreel (Universiteit Gent) aan. This is an absurdly counterproductive solution if Vanden Bossche were truly concerned about variants. Vanden Bossche is bij het publiek bekend vanwege zijn kritiek op het coronabeleid van overheden. Wie is Geert Vanden Bossche? Please read and share: https://t.co/0Fupw9JInP #COVID19 pic.twitter.com/I24mSjpVKM, Geert Vanden Bossche (@GVDBossche) March 6, 2021. 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. Er zijn overigens niet veel mutaties nodig voor een bacterie om resistent te worden tegen een antibioticum. This is a very confused argument. Retweets. There's even grift likely involved! 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. GEERT VANDEN BOSSCHE: 'MY FINAL CALL' The Highwire with Del Bigtree News Lockdowns Expand in China; Details of New 'Disinformation Czar'; New #PfizerDocuments Released; Geert Vanden Bossche's Final, Dire Warning to the World Guest: Geert Vanden Bossche, DVM, PhD #VandenBossche #GVBFinalCall Episode Website More Episodes Very interested in spirituality. So, why then should there be a major concern using these vaccines to fight Covid-19? This material may not be reproduced without permission. Lets compare Dr. Vanden Bossches letter to what Wakefield wrote back in 2019. 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. Het publiekelijk schofferen van wetenshappers of mensen die hun job kwijt raken of beledigd worden omdat ze zich kritisch uitspreken, zulke zaken passen niet in onze cultuur van vrije meningsuiting en open debat. Volg VRT NWS op uw smartphone of tablet via de VRT NWS-app. Failure to comply with these requirements is at risk of granting microbes a chance to survive and hence, may cause the disease to fare [sic] up. Als veearts heeft hij wel een wetenschappelijke achtergrond. Add a bio, trivia, and more. En wat doen we ondertussen dan? Daarna werd hij hoofd van het Vaccine Development Office van het Duitse Centrum voor Infectieonderzoek. Frans historicus Emmanuel Todd (volledig interview): Derde Wereldoorlog is al begonnen, Met 3000 kwamen ze naar Brussel op 26 februari 2023, Europe for Peace. While mutations to SARS-CoV-2 would be happening regardless of any human intervention, the notion that vaccination might apply evolutionary pressure toward variants that can escape current vaccines is not untenable. Transformation is rapidly becoming the key to survive as an organsisation. De standpunten vermeld in deze community reflecteren niet noodzakelijk de redactionele lijn van DeWereldMorgen.be. Er zijn genoeg mensen die mij in mijn betoog steunen. 1 jaar oorlog in Oekrane: hoe geraken we hieruit? There are 10+ professionals named "Geert Van Den Bossche", who use LinkedIn to exchange information, ideas, and opportunities. 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. He held adjunct faculty appointments at universities in Belgium and Germany. (I kid you not.) So it is scientifically based but the conclusions of the chapters are accessible to laymen as is the entire chapter "Answers to Key Questions" p.528-531. So, there is not one second left for gears to be switched and to replace the current killer vaccines by life-saving vaccines. Deze sfeer is mee geschept door de experten en de media. 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. (He bases this on the observation that in those infected with COVID-19 asymptomatically, S-specific Ab levels decline faster than in those with symptomatic infections.) Hoe minder je kopieert, hoe kleiner de kans dat er een kopieerfout gebeurt.. 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.
