Participants in the survey\u00a0may describe their health differently based on what they believe and how they see things. Also, the survey showed that the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups had important differences in age and health. For example, the vaccinated group was older and more likely to be taking medications.<\/p>\n

The analysis itself doesn’t\u00a0necessarily show the conclusions the study claims\u00a0In research, a number called a p-value helps show if a difference is real or just happened by chance. Usually, if the p-value is below 0.05, the difference is considered meaningful. However, some of the differences the study claims to have found have p-values higher than 0.05. For example, the claim that vaccinated people got COVID more often had a p-value of 0.103, which means there isn\u2019t strong evidence to support that claim.<\/p>\n

The study wrongly claims that mRNA vaccines make “cells in vital organs produce a toxic Spike protein.” This is not true. The vaccines use mRNA to tell cells\u00a0at the injection site<\/a>\u00a0to make the spike protein. This helps the immune system recognize the virus, and then the mRNA breaks down and disappears.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
