Women say COVID vaccines affected their periods. A new study adds to mounting evidence.

Why do you keep asking that question?
Do you think there IS an answer? If so, why not look it up yourself?
Do you think there ISN'T an answer? Then what's the point of asking?
I'd like to know what "fully vaccinated" means. Since you keep asking that question, I'll ask you.
Don't get me wrong, I think there are measures by which you could decide whether someone is fully vaccinated. Some level of antibodies to current strains of the virus, perhaps, or things like that.
Total shots, together with other factors (like health, duration since last shot, whether you have had COVID, etc.) could give a good approximation.
But to expect that there is some magic number of shots - the same number for everybody - that means you are "fully vaccinated" strikes me as an unhelpful way to think about it.
We "rushed out" these vaccines, because we had no other options.
There haven't been "universal" vaccines for the common cold or flu ever, despite decades of work.
Covid vaccines are no different - the "new" ones are not specifically "improvements", they are altered versions which are targeting the new circulating variants. JUST LIKE we do with flu every year.
All you have to do is post how many total shots means "fully vaccinated."
My view is it means 4 or 5.
“Fully vaccinated” is not the same as having the best protection that staying up to date provides. You were “fully vaccinated” when you had completed only a primary series based on your age, health status, and vaccine type. Thus, you can be “fully vaccinated” and not have completed all vaccine doses recommended for you, which is called “up to date”.
There are OTHER sources that demonstrate the vaccines will prevent and slow infection rates.Joe, you are wrong again but I know that doesn't surprise you.
You may notice from the below article that the CDC doesn't state the vaccine slows or prevents infection.
ALL they have to do is lower the R0, and we know they do that. When you claim "they are only 50% effective", that means they eliminate HALF the number of infections that would have otherwise occurred.
Even 10% effective drops the R0.
I’m always curious when I see people like you with poor memories and denying that that Pfizer and Moderna reported from their trials that there was a 90+ % efficacy rate preventing the contraction of Covid.
That is a fact. It didn’t turn out to be the truth. It’s certainly obvious that the vaccine helps with the outcome of those that have Covid.
Up to Date means you have a vaccine against the new variants, like flu.
Last year's flu shot ain't gonna help you much during an influenza outbreak this year.
WWJD, not to pick on you specifically but some of you people are mentally draining. How hard is it to get the shot or don't get the shot. Make a decision and move on. I can't imagine what it would be like to pick a couch out with some of you.
When Joe Biden said he was going to sign an executive order that mandated the shots for pretty much EVERYONE until the Supreme Court stepped in and said "No, Joe, you can't do that.", he said it was because they would stop the spread, that if you get the shot(s) you won't get covid. Words matter.
I'm not mad about anything, and I'm trying very hard to give the vaccines as much benefit of the doubt that I can. Since we were told they protected against infection and spread, and they really don't, I just don't know how much credit they deserve for preventing severe illness and death, especially for younger people who statistically weren't ever much in danger to begin with. With or without a vaccine, there's been MUCH fewer deaths among people 50 and under than the "rare" breakthrough cases for the vaccinated.
And yet in just a few months, we created a safe and effective vaccine for a novel virus and stuck 80% of the planet with it... seems legit.
What part has been debunked? Biden said it, multiple times.

PANDEMIC
BIDEN: “If you’re vaccinated, you’re not going to be hospitalized, you’re not going to be in the IC unit, and you’re not going to die.” — town hall.
BIDEN: “You’re not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations.” — town hall.
BIDEN, asked about vaccinated people who get infected: “It may be possible, I know of none where they’re hospitalized, in ICU and or have passed away so at a minimum I can say even if they did contract it, which I’m sorry they did, it’s such a tiny percentage and it’s not life threatening.” — remarks to reporters after the event.
I remember that. I also remember the people who said if we all went out and got covid it would be over too.
First, if those are actual quotes, he overstated. That happens, you know. And when it happens, and when we are repeatedly updated for years with the correct information, only children keep saying "but you said...."
Why do you engage in this blatantly disingenuous performance?
It took a year to develop and test it
It was ANOTHER YEAR before we vaccinated "most" people
And we're nowhere near "80% of the planet" being vaccinated.
What we DO KNOW is that nearly everywhere we have higher vaccination rates, we have LOWER excess deaths rates. There is a clear trend on this.
That was never allowed to happen. But, the pandemic curve would have been much shorter if we had.
Sometimes you just have to listen to yourself. You said you thought the vaccine saved millions of lives. Just go with that and be happy. You're letting your political views (I'm guessing) cloud your overall view of the vaccine. Words matter but we're all human, we all say things that may or may not end up to be true. Some times they're true in the moment (for what we know). Honestly, are you really going to take what Biden said for actual medical truth? He's repeating his interpretation of something that someone said to him. I'm certainly not going to listen to any President when it comes to medical decisions.
I'm not asking you to give any person credit. I don't know who to give credit to and I don't care. I'm just glad I here to post on this board. I got the vaccine and I'm here, one of my best friends chose not to get it and he's now been dead for a couple of years. Did I make the right decision, I don't know for sure but based on my friend, I think I did.
I wonder why the left is so desperate to rewrite history and their behavior during the pandemic??
I know someone who died of lung cancer and never smoked a day in their life. I'm very happy for you and everyone else who is still here regardless of their vaccine status. This isn't a political issue for me, it runs deeper than right vs left, if the situation was reversed and the left was against the Trump juice and the right couldn't get jabbed enough, I wouldn't think any different.
A year huh... makes sense they were working on the vaccine when the virus got out.
I don’t think that is correct unless you got the single shot J&J like I did. The others were two shots. Then there was a booster and then a bivalent booster. I have had 3 shots but most people 4. Now there is the new vax not yet available in my area.
I think full vaxxed means at least 4 shots total.
I emailed my doctor's office to ask.
That guidance ONLY COVERED healthcare workers, Cletus.
Something that hospitals were ALREADY DOING.
They were not "working on the vaccine when the virus got out".
They got the genome within a month or two and started working on it THEN.
Read the actual standard, Cletus:
with an exception for employers that instead establish, implement, and enforce a policy allowing employees who are not fully vaccinated to elect to undergo weekly COVID-19 testing and wear a face covering at the workplace.
Seems like the "laughing emoji" is the anti-vaxxer equivalent of a "white flag" in this thread.
Pretty much their only answer to anything here...

Yep and more republicans died because they believed false information regarding Covid shots. I’ve discussed this many times. 30-50 year olds defiant even on their death beds.
Here are a bunch:

They thought COVID was a scam, until they lay dying from it. sorryantivaxxer.com tells their story using their own facebook and twitter posts.

I'm sorry for your gain. As a urologist, I lead a help group of HROT members suffering from Dickus Maximus. It's difficult for people to cope with since it's one of the few things that their massive fortunes can't simply spend to make go aaway.
