What continues to be missing in the vaccine conversation is the understanding that how they are made is different from vaccine to vaccine. They are not all the same.

What continues to be missing in the vaccine conversation is the understanding that how they are made is different from vaccine to vaccine. They are not all the same. Just because they have the same name does not mean they are all made the same. Different mechanisms of actions, live virus, dead virus, different adjuvents, MRNA, etc. How about this for a change - what if it is not the theory of vaccination that is the issue, but how they are made and how and when they are administered. The devil is in the details. Why can't we all get behind the idea that some of the practices that are now conventional wisdom are showing to be problematic and adjust accordingly? It also feels very appropriate to me that in a new born infant there is all sorts of "permeability" happening, their skin is so fragile, their immune system just beginning to be formed, their skull isn't even fully formed, their digestive system still fragile and growing, doesn't it seem also reasonable that the blood brain barrier is also still forming? Gosh even adults have leaky gut and leaky brain. To me, that all seems so obvious and it's a shame that we make the conversation so polarized and there is no understanding of nuance. As well, we all understand that too much of a good thing can also become a bad thing. Why can't we understand that overloading a newborn's system, or heck even an adult's system with massive doses of a vaccine's mechanism of action could be problematic? Finally, why can't we also agree that as our understanding of health and immunity and the human body evolves, so too does our understanding of science. We used to get behind so many things that now make us laugh, we also didn't get behind things that now would be seen as inconceivable, why can't we also allow the conversation about vaccines to evolve as well without triggering people and ostracizing, cancelling or just plain disregarding those who are offering a different viewpoint?
I cannot wait to cast my vote for RFK, he is much much more than an opinion on vaccines. Wake up people.

All very important and insightful questions, Christine!
