Wanna be just like me— the shitty part? Get your very own autoimmune disease by joining in with widespread covid denial and government austerity!

Autoimmunity is the presence of antibodies and T lymphocytes that react to normal parts of a person’s system. OMF’s ME/CFS CRC at Uppsala has found an upregulation of autoantibodies in up to 70% of people with #MECFS in a preliminary study.

There’s no evidence COVID vaccines cause autoimmune problems, and there’s some evidence they may even prevent them.

Do vaccines exhaust T-cells and cause autoimmunity?
No evidence supports claims that mRNA vaccines cause T-cell exhaustion and autoimmunity; vaccines are safe and protect against diseases.

Retsef Levi just claimed that COVID19 vaccines cause:
Changes in the immune system that cause other infections, autoimmunity, chronic inflammation, immune tolerance and impaired immune surveillance including immune fatigue or suppression.
These claims are not supported by credible evidence.

the expansion of the idea of "vaccine" might be the best thing that has come to medicine in the last decade
they're also working on "anti-vaccines" that make the immune system FORGET things it attacks (for autoimmunity!)
and the first-ever vaccine for fungal infections too, totally new paradigm
