Study showing insufficient disclosure to vaccinees

The ADE (antibody-dependent enhancement) phenomenon is not disclosed previous to vaccination. According to this study, from March, this omission means the vaccination procedure does not meet ethical standards.

But does it really matter?

ADE has not been observed so far, after two major dominant mutations from wild type (with Delta being also partially immune-escaping), and several billion people vaccinated already.

Other respiratory pathogens (and especially, all the other endemic human CoVs) have never been seen to cause ADE either, afaik.

Also, if ADE will ever be a thing for SCV2, it'll be a problem both for vaccinees and people who recovered. Considering it's basically endemic it's only a matter of time before everyone will be exposed and will be at the same identical risk.

@Elessar I don't think it's a gas?? I understand that it's an extreme multiplication of the famous spike proteins

@WalterF has*, my phone auto-corrector often interferes.

@Elessar Oops, sorry - yoou must have written "ADE gas" and not "has"! Good to laugh in these troubled times!

@Elessar I'll have to look for studies on ADE gas...
