re: Brace yourselves for a lot of scared people

So, I dug a bit myself. It looks like it’s from one of those viral videos.

Reuters Fact Check

Since I don’t trust Reuters, I took a look for myself Mice Study.

The 2012 study was done on mice, not ferrets. In that respect the video was just wrong. They also used 4 different types of vaccines, not just mRNA. The mRNA vaccine was from a previous 2004 study which was done on ferrets (more on this later). The only negative side effects that the study found in the mice were elevated WBC counts.

However...

This is intriguing since the only animals they could replicate fever conditions of the virus in were ferrets. The original Study says as much. In this case, they found that in ferrets the mRNA vaccine caused liver damage which we can assume would lead to shortening the lifespan of the ferrets.

Given so little data, it’s hard to draw any real conclusions, however, I think it raises at least some pressing questions.

White blood cell count can indicate liver damage LINK. Was the elevated WBC count in the mice evidence of such?

Second, is the liver damage that occurred in ferrets from the virus or the vaccine? Bearing in mind they were studying a different virus at the time, we know the spike proteins are stored in lipids which then are processed by the liver LINK.

If it is these spike proteins that are damaging the liver, the vaccine may have some of those long-term side effects people seem to be so intent on ignoring.
