I’ve told you numerous times that the immune system is characterized by constrained space. The lung microenvironment can only harbor so many T cells and B cells against a particular pathogen, before you see interference against unrelated pathogens. That’s for example, why vaccination against influenza increases risk of unrelated pathogens.
Well, we now have scientific evidence that reveals vaccination against SARS-COV-2, increases risk of influenza infection. I quote:
During a period of high SARS-CoV-2 community transmission (November 2023 to May 2024), we collected weekly data on symptoms and sick day leave and used negative binomial regression to identify risk factors for these outcomes among 1745 healthcare workers. To single out the effect of the vaccine and account for potential confounding, additional inverse probability weighted analysis was performed.
Results
In both analyses, we show that more SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations are associated with a higher risk of influenza-like respiratory illness and workdays lost. For influenza-like respiratory illness, the association is stronger with a more recent timing of the vaccination rather than the number of vaccinations, which suggests that the effect wanes over time. In contrast, seasonal influenza vaccination is associated with a decreased risk for both outcomes.Conclusions
Based on our data, we conclude that SARS-CoV-2 booster vaccination does not contribute to the protection of the healthcare workforce in a post-pandemic setting. SARS-CoV-2 vaccination may even temporarily increase the likelihood of symptomatic infection and workday loss.
I have been telling you about this for years.
The ongoing Influenza outbreak is currently the worst we’ve ever seen since accurate measurement began. Take a good look at this:
We’ve seen the most cases of influenza-like illness ever in the 2024-25 season. The next worse season was the previous season. It’s now getting worse every single year. And this current season is shaping up to be even worse.
It doesn’t take a genius or a conspiracy theorist to figure out that this vaccination strategy against COVID is not working, you just need to read the studies that are now coming out. There’s a reason people are now just sick all the time.
Most people still think that the consequences of these vaccines amount to a minor inconvenience. In reality however, we have unleashed a persistent SARS virus on the population through mass vaccination with negative efficacy vaccines.
These vaccines fail to train the generalist innate immune response against respiratory pathogens. You are instead simply shifting around the T cell and B cell population in the lungs, away from non-SARS targeting pathogens towards SARS2 targeting populations.
In the unvaccinated, we see a proliferation and migration of NK cells and monocytes upon infection by SARS-COV-2. The scientists refer to this as “overactivation”, they assumed the immune system gets it wrong. But in reality, this is what needs to happen. The innate immune system needs to be trained, as its response to the virus is variant-independent.
Failing to train the innate immune system means we’re simply left waiting for SARS-COV-2 to evolve to overcome the antibody response against the Spike protein. This process takes a few years, but eventually leaves you with a much worse outcome.
Don’t believe me? Well, by all means, explain this to me.
Since I’ve become an antivaxxer I won’t even get a tetanus shot, let alone a stupid worse than useless flu shot that they keep pushing on us in supermarkets with pharmacies.
What are your thoughts on the tetanus shot?
Today I saw something interesting: somebody claiming that many chronic illnesses are caused by low level tetanus infection.
>What are your thoughts on the tetanus shot?
I have no strong thoughts on most vaccines. It’s the COVID vaccines that have caused enormous issues, because they were rushed in the middle of a pandemic.
Without vaccination, we would have big trouble with many viruses that were (nearly) extinct returning. The problem with the COVID vaccines is that they don’t prevent infection by the virus they’re supposed to prevent you from getting, so they encourage the virus to evolve. That’s not a problem with most vaccines.
Quote: “Without vaccination, we would have big trouble with many viruses that were (nearly) extinct returning.”
Only if we would just remove the whole vaccination technology and do nothing.
But it’s not like as, if we give up all preventing medicine, we would be helpless and have to accept more deaths. Prevention is one possible way, and treatment another.
I say that the whole current preventing technology, mostly vaccination, simply failed and has generally only very small benefits but unpredictable risks. This does not mean that preventing technology is doomed to fail, it means only that vaccination technology is not suited for reliable prevention. We should forget it and try completely new ideas for preventing illnesses.
Until then it’s better to focus on treatment, instead of using a ~250 years old technology, which was always questionable and never worked properly.
As soon as I understood how the covid “vaccinations” were supposed to work, trillions of lipid nanoparticles tricking my cells into expressing spike proteins for God knows how long, I said YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. I’M OUT!
And then it got worse and worse, we learned the things were loaded with DNA and the RNA was synthetic…! It’s unbelievable, this massive pharmaceutical experiment forced on the entire Western world!
I still can’t wrap my head around it.
We are actually living through a dystopian science fiction movie.
Agree the “vaccines” seemed like a bad idea from the get-go, and that we are in some sort of dystopia now. The most observable change from my perspective was not so much physical health, but psychological/spiritual, social/cultural. More fragmentation, isolation, more digital/online etc. Honestly, I’m not sure what’s going on the health front – I am a hermit these days, so I don’t hear about many illnesses that people may be having if they are. The biggest difference to me over the last several years is spiritual/psych9logical, and I’m not sure how to express this, but the few humans I do interact with outside of my immediate family seem ‘flatter’. The population is visibly different to me know as well – there are visibly more immigrants. It’s like a threshold was passed since covidworld, and now the whole population is altered. After covidworld more people seem to lack commitment and capability of doing things well. Perhaps they don’t feel like they are among their own people anymore, or that this is their society, or that they want to work hard for it and be committed to this cause of making the world a better place, etc. It feels like covidworld… Read more »
Which I’m sure is all nothing new and a common enough experience.
Zero points for originality.
Although I will say though that I do feel different now that I am going to church on Sundays – not that I claim to be a good Christian, but even a little bit seems to be enough to create some changes.
It’s providing new experiences and dimensions to things.
Some peace, a bit of comfort, etc.
In a world where the ‘sources’ are corrupted and manipulative (hat tip to AI, which is proving itself to be a real arsehole :P) going back to ‘first principles’ seems like a good idea.
Here you go, Charlie:
Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University are challenging the convention that tetanus and diphtheria vaccine boosters need to be administered every 10 years. Their paper in Clinical Infectious Diseases recommends that the current adult vaccination schedule should be revisited.
“We have always been told to get a tetanus shot every 10 years, but actually, there is very little data to prove or disprove that timeline,” says Mark K. Slifka, Ph.D., a professor at the Oregon National Primate Research Center at OHSU. “When we looked at the levels of immunity among 546 adults, we realized that antibody titers against tetanus and diphtheria lasted much longer then previously believed.”
In this study, Slifka and colleagues looked at the magnitude and duration of immunity to tetanus and diphtheria to provide an evidence-based evaluation of the current adult vaccine schedule. Their analysis shows adults will remain protected against tetanus and diphtheria for at least 30 years without the need for further booster shots, after completing the standard five-dose childhood vaccination series.

Nice to read from you again RR.
I hope you’ll get better soon (sunlight and herbs might help)
and more great posts too.
Thank you and wish you well.
Thanks for posting another update.
As bad as it sounds, record breaking influenza waves in the Winter is probably preferable to massive COVID waves instead. At least influenza won’t damage the brains of young children.
Not sure if I’m being honest about influenza going back compared to COVID being dominant.
Largely because I dread COVID coming back with a vengeance this month and the next with either BA.3.2 or whatever spawns out of it hitting the scene. That or PQ.2*.
On top of the dread is when Dr. Bossche mentioned that a single dominant lineage would be the sign before we see a super strain. Whether or not another bad flu season is going to put more pressure on Covid or immune systems I can’t argue for or against, but I am afraid.
Also to note is how neurotrophic flu also exists. Those could be nasty as well.
Though part of my fear may stem from the fact that this is my last year listening to Dr. Bossche and company. I’m going to be particularly watchful this month and the first half of January. I’ll be going on a cruise to the Caribbean in January and I honestly might bail out after I get off. I am trying to prepare, and it’s hard to trust people and their recommendations at this point.
Also, meant to say instead of “I’m being honest” I meant to say ” I’m not sure if influenza being dominant is a good thing”.
> I’ll be going on a cruise to the Caribbean in January and I honestly might bail out after I get off. I am trying to prepare, and it’s hard to trust people and their recommendations at this point.
How does one even prepare for the scenario being predicted by Dr. GVDB? A rapid die off of one third of the population in countries with high vaccine coverage rates, which is essentially the entire planet minus Africa? So, you stock up on a years supply of food, fuel and medical supplies, then what? Wouldn’t death be preferable to that fate?
Personally I’m now quite skeptical of Geert’s prediction of a rapid “hyperacute” phase of disease (HIVICRON) resulting in mass death in a short timeframe. I think Rintrah’s predictions are more likely: chronic infections, gradual immune exhaustion, more Long COVID, multiple serotypes, gradual rise in prevalence of other pathogens, persistent elevated excess mortality etc.
It’s going to be personal tragedy all over the place; that is how people will see it and experience it. Things will degrade badly, not fall apart anytime soon.
Even then, I think if people survive Bossche’s Hivicron scenario. They almost certainly wouldn’t survive the aftermath. LSWM’s have deluded themselves into thinking that the world is going to be this utopia once Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab are out of the picture. With that they can establish whatever fucked up vision of what they call a proper society, if they even want a government in the first place. A society completely run by LSWM’s would be absolute hell culturally, socially, economically and politically. It comes off as if they are oblivious to the inner functions of the world if they were put in charge. Not to mention Africa would almost certainly be economically nuked if developed societies face a massive die off. Trade dependency will practically be gutted, unless one wants to argue they would be better off since their resources aren’t getting stripmined. That is unless corrupt leaders and their cronies would hog up all the wealth for themselves. From what I know, Bossche has been generally dismissive of the idea of a slow and gradual end, arguing nature would want to eliminate suffering fast. The only reason I’ve been paying attention to him for the last 2.5… Read more »
If you are genuinely afraid why not deal with it by avoiding catching covid? No-one in my household of three has caught covid yet (no symptoms, plus I was stuck with weekly testing for three full years since I refused the vax, and no positive tests). N95s, Xlear nasal spray, claritin, AirTamer, nasal neosporin (google Yale covid nasal neosporin to see clinical trial; not for regular use since hard on kidneys).
I wouldn’t recommend this generally since most people don’t want to live this way, but it does work pretty well.
The fact that you are thinking of going on a cruise makes me guess that you are seeking to catch covid. Covid infection has an analgesic effect and people seek it out after the pain-killing effect of the last infection wears off; it is like drug seeking behavior. That is one of the reasons that if a person is still trying to avoid covid, there is some reason to think that s/he has not yet caught covid.

Oh well
I can’t copy and paste from that website, but I’ll type some of it in:
“TB remains a serious threat in Pakistan and many other countries and latent TB can stay dormant for years until the immune system weakens. In this study COVID-19 survivors especially those who were IGRA positive showed lower MTB induced IFN gamma, IL6, IL2 and TNF alpha levels along with higher IL6 to IL10 and TNF alpha to IL10 ratios. These altered ratios indicate unstable immune control which may increase the possibility of latent TB reactivation.”
and here’s the kicker:
“The study further highlights that the weakened immune responses were not linked to how severe the earlier COVID-19 infection was or the original viral load indicating that even mild cases may leave long term effects.”
(not actually surprising since it does form reservoirs)
Great to see you posting again, Rintrah. I hope your life is going well.
Good to see the exemplary Rintrah back in acton. You have a unique viewpoint we all appreciate, although sometimes it does not come across like that. Things are getting pretty bad in the ‘West’, the wheels are definitely starting to come off and normies are noticing.
Welcome back. we missed your fine writing and insights
I have been reading about this covid thing all these years, but I can’t remember if you ever mentioned the 1977 Russian flu. It was a flu strain that was identical to a strain from the early 1950s that reemerged unchanged in the mid 1970s. In several places simultaneously hundreds of miles apart. Also because it was a strain from the 50’s it only mostly effected those born afterwards, young military aged. Isn’t nature strange sometimes?

Interesting
According to your link it wasn’t natural at all but probably resulted from a vaccine trial or vaccine development gone awry.
Yes, you were right.
Meanwhile, what the hell is going on in Australia????
“Between 2000 and 2024 — in 30 to 39-year-olds — early onset prostate cancer increased by 500 per cent, pancreatic cancer by 200 per cent, liver cancer by 150 per cent, uterine cancer by 138 per cent and kidney cancer by 85 per cent.”
(https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07-07/cancer-diagnosis-rates-under-50s-rising-causes-four-corners/105495620)
An explosion of prostate cancer by 500% in Australia and the US in the past 20 years tells me there’s probably a specific chemical involved.
Influenza (on the odd occasion) is good for you if, like me, you like the occasional spliff:
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41590-023-01428-x
That’s true. It can be deadly when you’re older though, which is the main demographic that’s still being vaccinated against SARS-COV-2.
This is why I do not drink – only the occasional spliff:

Coof and alcohol do not mix.
From personal experience I can 100% say this is false.
A socioeconomic bio-weapon that is specifically designed to kill the co-morbid rich westerner consoooooooomers, but spare the poor in the Global East and South (who mostly always smoke) and also spare religiously observant Muslims?

Quick summary covid invection not good, just like aids isn’t good.
If you have some spare time ask the google AI about 2 studies from 2020 and 2024 about aspartames effect on male fertility. And its effect on testosterone levels. Make sure to ask about leydig cells. And how the high dose in the study is equivalent to only 4-5 cans of soda a day. Also if your over 50 and male you can expect a 9 percent weight gain, due to you lowered testosterone levels. Make sure to ask about fluoride and leydig cells aswell.
Glad to read you again. Missed the posts.
