Dr. Byram Bridle on COVID-19 Mass Vaccination Programs: “We Are Optimizing The Chance For A Variant To Emerge That Can Bypass All Of These Vaccines”

New Zealand is particularly screwed:

A country like New Zealand, which has isolated itself and may not have substantial, naturally acquired immunity, which is gonna be very broad and is relying on these vaccines, may be able to vaccinate their population.

But if the rest of the world has these variants circulating, all those vaccinated individuals are gonna be susceptible to these variants that don’t care about that spike protein specific immunity anymore.

And you may, as a population, have wanted much more broad immunity that’s conferred by natural natural acquisition of immunity, meaning you acquire the infection and clear it. So I’m very concerned about this.

Via: Dryburgh.com:

If you were to ask me as a scientist, how would I design an experiment that would maximise our chance of generating a highly immunio evasive variant of the SARS Coronavirus 2?

My answer would be, essentially, the exact way we are rolling out these vaccines, precisely the way they’re rolling out these vaccines.

The way we’re rolling this out, as I said, we are optimizing the chance for a variant to emerge that can bypass all of these vaccines.

    Very powerful information being put forward. I’ve spent some time looking, but have not found any of the other presentations from the 2/12/21 Plan B symposium in NZ.

    Anyone else a better detective?
