I am continuing my efforts to advocate for what I believe is an important change in the way government policies affect our personal health decisions. I believe every American should have the freedom to make informed choices about their own body and, as parents, about their children's healthcare.

Every day we are exposed to countless environmental and lifestyle factors that can affect our health—from the food we eat and the air we breathe to the products we use. Because of that, I believe decisions about medical treatments, including vaccinations, should be made by individuals and families in consultation with their healthcare providers, rather than being mandated by the government.

I am concerned that current school vaccination requirements can place some families in the difficult position of choosing between following their personal convictions and accessing public education. I believe every child deserves the opportunity to receive an education without their family feeling that they must compromise their deeply held beliefs.

This movement is about protecting informed consent, personal freedom, and parental rights. Whether or not you agree with every aspect of this issue, I hope you will support respectful dialogue and the right of individuals to make their own medical decisions.

If you believe in protecting personal choice and encouraging thoughtful discussion about these policies, I invite you to join this effort. Together, we can advocate for laws that respect individual liberty while working toward a better future for our children, our families, and generations to come.

INTRODUCTION

I entered adulthood during the lockdowns -- I was the class of 2020. Because of this, I never got to experience my High School graduation or prom like how most people did. I never looked forward to any of these HS events, because I myself never wanted to grow up -- it was one of my greatest fears as a child.

SOCIAL ANXIETY & SOCIAL ISOLATION

I grew up with neglectful parents, they paid very little attention to my mental wellbeing during my childhood and adolescence. I had very few friends during childhood, often avoiding socialization due to fear of judgment and rejection. I never participated in school sports or clubs (avoidance defence mechanism). It wasn't until months after I graduated High School, I reflected on these behaviours and how empty it made feel. Knowing that young kids teens were forced to experience what I did (or what I didn't) saddened me -- difference was that I voluntarily isolated, whereas they missed out on these events and milestones due to government policy. Weeks before my 19th birthday, I went to therapy discussing and mourning my poor social life during my childhood, wanting to correct my past behaviours. However, due to the current conditions at the time, it was not possible, for it was either A: against the law or B: people were overly-cautious and did want to do it. At the time, riding the bus made me feel uneasy and I was too scared to leave my own city without my parents driving me -- I couldn't even ask employees at a grocery store questions without being stuck in the throat.

APPEAL TO AUTHORITY & QUESTIONING THE EXPERTS

As a kid, I (incorrectly) believed that adults knew everything and were infallible. It wasn't until when I became an adult, I realized that nobody ever truly understood what they were doing -- they were simply doing things as they went along, and that some people were just better at hiding their cluelessness than others. During the pandemic, we were constantly being told to just 'trust the experts' and 'believe the science', yet silenced and berated scientists and medical doctors who held differing opinions. Knowing that even so-called 'experts' were only human and also had their personal biases, it made me question the whole narrative that was being pushed by governments and big media outlets -- perhaps, they had their own agendas and conflicts of interest.

POST-LOCKDOWN

I have recovered significantly from my social anxiety, thanks to my years of therapy and life experiences. I do not fear socialization like how I once did, and I have fully adjusted to adulthood. Simply exposing yourself to the real world is enough to help overcome fears that prevent you from living, breathing and enjoying life. Government responses to the pandemic ended up prolonging my anxiety, and hopefully will never happen again.

I had made a post on here and the same post in an another similar subreddit regarding the ARR, RRR and NNV. A vaccine apologist replied to my post on the other subreddit and said the following:

You are not giving the whole definition of ARR.

The ARR during the Pfizer trial was the absolute risk reduction for those participants in that RCT time window.

The average time for efficacy analysis was 2 months so even just keeping everything the same (lockdowns, social distancing, no school, remote work, etc) the ARR for a year would be ~4% (0.71% x 6). But the world didn’t stay the same after the vaccines came out, the country opened up and the infection rate went way up (mainly driven by unvaccinated in 2021).

Within a year or two, all basically all unvaccinated people had gotten covid (~100% risk). When the control group risk is 100% then the ARR becomes equal to the RRR.

The RRR efficacy was still high during that period (95%-50% depending on if it was Alpha, Delta or Omicron). So the ARR was somewhere in the middle of that range for that time window, not 0.71%.

It is true that for this study, the Pfizer trials used a two-month efficacy analysis window. It is also true that when the control group risk is 100% then the ARR becomes equal to the RRR; but that never happens during the vaccine trials. However, I’m not buying some of the other things this guy is saying especially in regards to the calculation of the ARR.

Is the vaccine apologist actually right particularly regards to the calculation of ARR? Or is he is lying?

Thanks to Elon and Doge for dismantling the CDC so much so, that we can’t track this menacing parasitic infection. Great job! So. Much. Winning. 🏆

On another similar subreddit, I recently stumbled upon a few comments in interactions pertaining to the fact that the RRR was solely used to tout Covid vaccine efficacy and that the ARR was completely left out of the picture. This is when I decided to study the concept of ARR, RRR and later the NNV. I feel compelled to pass on this knowledge because even though I never took the damn shots, I was unaware about the concept of ARR, RRR and NNV. I know that others are not knowledgeable about these concepts as well so it makes so much sense as to why countless people have been deceived by the medical establishment especially during Covid. Before I discuss about RRR, ARR, and NNV, I have to cover Absolute Risk (AR) and Relative Risk (RR). 

Absolute Risk (AR)

For example, a randomized controlled trial (RCT) method was applied to a Pfizer vaccine trial, 21,720 individuals were vaccinated and 21,728 individuals were unvaccinated. Eight Covid cases were uncovered among the vaccinated and 162 Covid cases among the unvaccinated. The Absolute risk (AR) is a measure of the risk of an event occurring in a specific population.

AR for treatment group (vaccinated group): 8/21720 = 0.000368 or 0.037%

AR for control group (unvaccinated group): 162/21728=0.00745 or 0.745%

Interpretation: The vaccinated are at a 0.037% risk of getting Covid while the unvaccinated are at a 0.745% risk of getting Covid.

Relative Risk (RR)

Relative risk (RR) is a measure of the risk of a certain event happening in one population compared with the risk of the same event happening in another population.

Formula for RR: AR for control group/AR for treatment group 

RR: (0.000368/0.00745)= 0.04832  or 4.832%

Interpretation: The vaccinated group is 4.832% less likely to get Covid than the unvaccinated group.

Absolute Risk Reduction (ARR)

The Absolute Risk Reduction (ARR) measures the *actual decrease* in the risk after applying a preventive or treatment measure. 

Formula for ARR: AR control group-AR treatment group 

ARR: 0.00745-0.00036= 0.00709 or 0.0709%

Interpretation: The vaccine reduces the actual risk of getting Covid from 0.745% to 0.036% or simply by 0.709%

Relative Risk Reduction (RRR)

The Relative Risk Reduction (RRR) measures the proportion of risk reduction. There are two ways to compute the RRR.

Formula 1 for RRR: (AR control group-AR treatment group)/AR control group

Formula 2 for RRR: 1-RR

RRR: (0.00745-0.00036)/0.00745=0.9516

Interpretation: The vaccine reduces the risk of getting Covid by 95%. 

Number Needed to Vaccinate(NNV)

The Number Needed to Vaccinate (NNV) is the number of people that must be vaccinated to prevent one case of an illness. If the intervention had been drugs instead of vaccines, it would be called the Number Needed to Treat (NNT)

Formula for NNV: 1/ARR

NNV: 1/0.00709=141 people

Interpretation: 141 people need to be vaccinated to prevent one case of Covid 

How Relative Risk Reduction (RRR) is misleading 

As I stated earlier, the calculated RRR for the Pfizer vaccines was 95%. This RRR is what was reported as the efficacy for both vaccines and drugs. This is misleading because it exaggerates the effectiveness of vaccines and drugs by comparing the percentage change in outcomes between the two groups rather than absolutes. The ideal thing would be state both the RRR and ARR, but it is very unlikely that the medical establishment is going to do that anytime soon.
