"It isn't," he told us. This brings us to our topic, a misinformation-filled open letter by a scientist named Geert Vanden Bossche that went viral over the weekend. Vervolgens gaat hij in op hetgeen op VRTNWS en in Knack is verschenen als reactie op zijn wetenschappelijke bevindingen. (I kid you not.) So, why then should there be a major concern using these vaccines to fight Covid-19? 42(3) . Dat geeft de hoogst mogelijke bescherming en zal de verspreiding van het virus dus nog verder naar omlaag duwen. Jul 4, 2022. Massavaccinatie middenin een pandemie, (zorgt) voor druk op virusstammen (om te muteren, veranderen naar een nieuwe vorm dus, red. Theres abundant evidence that Vanden Bossche has a not-so-hidden agenda. He is no stranger to vaccines. As I noted when Andrew Wakefield explicitly used the example of Mareks disease to claim that a leaky vaccine to MMR would cause a global catastrophe by selecting for deadly measles variants, yes, a leaky vaccine changes the selective pressure and permits the evolution of highly virulent strains because the virus retains the ability to continue to spread among vaccinated populations, leading to the vaccine selecting for the most virulent mutations. The technology obviates the need for traditional adjuvants, multiple boost injections or expensive manufacturing processes and is readily compatible with intradermal or mucosal administration. Der Urheber der These ist der Belgier Geert Vanden Bossche, der in den Berichten als Impfexperte" oder anerkannter Top-Virologe" bezeichnet wird. Integendeel, zegt vaccinoloog Corinne Vandermeulen (KU Leuven), en ze somt de epidemien op die in het verleden net onder controle gebracht zijn door te vaccineren: Cholera, ebola, polio. Dit artikel werd gepdatet op 1/4/2021 om 9:26. Zie het als een kopieermachine, legt immunoloog Hans-Willem Snoeck (Columbia University, New York)op zijn beurt uit. How long can one ignore the problem when there is at present massive evidence that viral immune escape is now threatening humanity? A company claiming to develop such a product is currently registered to an address identified on Yelp as his veterinary practice. By Geert Van den Bossche Nov 6, 2018 Activity Leefbaarheid en mobiliteit zijn belangrijke uitdagingen binnen de Deltaregio. (He bases this on the observation that in those infected with COVID-19 asymptomatically, S-specific Ab levels decline faster than in those with symptomatic infections.) So, as we grow up, we increasingly mount pathogen-specific immunity, including highly specific Abs. Vanden Bossche asserts that COVID-19 vaccines pose a unique risk of producing dangerous variants in part because people who are vaccinated will be spreading the mutations while asymptomatic. Up to this point, at its core and leaving aside minor variations, Dr. Vanden Bossches argument about COVID-19 vaccines and COVID-19 is pretty close to exactly the same argument that Wakefield fallaciously made about MMR and measles. RNA viruses like SARS-CoV-2 do mutate. Geert Vanden Bossche is a scientist who published an open letter warning of global catastrophe due to deadly variants of COVID-19 selected for by mass vaccination. Er is dus geen reden om aan te nemen dat de coronavaccins tot een massale sterftegolf zouden kunnen leiden. Amusingly, as I was looking this post over earlier this morning for a final edit, I saw that no less a grifter than RFK Jr. himself had published a rebuttal to Dr. Vanden Bossches open letter by someone named Rosemary Frei, The Not-So-Hidden Agenda Behind Bossches Concern Over COVID Mass Vaccination. To follow Dr . The solution to that risk is to vaccinate as many people as quickly as possible, thereby reducing both transmission of the virus and the number of environments in which mutations could occur. Er is dus nog zeer veel onderzoek nodig naar NK-cellen. Des te meer in ons land aangezien hij een Belg is. On the contrary, I can assure you that each of the current vaccines have been designed, developed and manufactured by brilliant and competent scientists. Volgens hem kan dat vooral gebeuren wanneer mensen slechts n dosis krijgen, of te lang moeten wachten op een tweede. The second benefit to Vanden Bossche's claim is that it places his purported invention as the miracle solution to the COVID-19 pandemic. Vanden Bossche has been able to avoid allegations of peddling such a cure at least in the credulous anti-vaccine community because his resume legitimately includes stints at companies or initiatives involved in vaccine development, including The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. De vier wetenschappers die we contacteerden, begrijpen niet hoe daar ook maar iets van zou kunnen kloppen. Dierenarts Geert Vanden Bossche verkondigt hele en halve waarheden Daar werkte hij onder meer aan plannen voor de bestrijding van een mogelijke ebola-pandemie. Snoeck noemt het onomwonden technische nonsens die voor een niet-wetenschapper moeilijk te doorprikken zijn. If you havent, its new to you. But wait, says Dr. Vanden Bossche. So its not surprising that Dr. Vanden Bossches letter reminds me of Andrew Wakefields warning about the MMR vaccine. Sure, we dont yet have a firm grasp of how much the vaccine decreases transmission, but there is good emerging evidence that it does significantly decrease transmission. This makes no sense, Yale's Omer told us. Sufficient scientific evidence has been brought to the table. A viral open letter by Geert Vanden Bossche has gone viral, and antivaxxers have been citing it as slam-dunk evidence that COVID-19 vaccination will lead to global catastrophe. There are 10+ professionals named "Geert Van Den Bossche", who use LinkedIn to exchange information, ideas, and opportunities. The classic example of a leaky vaccine is actually the one for Mareks disease, caused by a herpesvirus that infects chicken and causes lymphoma among other illnesses. NK cells are pathogen destroying cells that are part of the innate immune system. Het werkt op verschillende fronten tegelijk. Dat is verre van zeker op dit moment. Of course, the type of vaccines to be used would be completely different from conventional vaccines in that theyre not inducing the usual suspects, i.e., B and T cells, but NK cells. His argument sounds a lot like an argument Andrew Wakefield once made for MMR. The Doomsday Prophecy of Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche An example of a leaky vaccine is the vaccine against Mareks disease, highly contagious and deadly viral disease of chicken that is a major problem in the poultry industry, and Dr. Vanden Bossche relies on this precedent, as Nirenberg explains: For a moment though, lets entertain the notion that the vaccines are leaky. We can hardly say we didnt know or were not warned. Al bij n dosis zal de kans op mutaties verminderen, omdat iemand ook na n dosis van het vaccin al minder besmettelijk wordt. Leroux-Roels duikt tijdens ons gesprek in de databank clinicaltrials.com, waar alle wetenschappelijke studies geregistreerd worden. GEERT VANDEN BOSSCHE: 'MY FINAL CALL' The Highwire with Del Bigtree News Lockdowns Expand in China; Details of New 'Disinformation Czar'; New #PfizerDocuments Released; Geert Vanden Bossche's Final, Dire Warning to the World Guest: Geert Vanden Bossche, DVM, PhD #VandenBossche #GVBFinalCall Episode Website More Episodes Een uitbraak van difterie in een vluchtelingenkamp in Bangladesh onlangs. Sep 13, 2021. ), lets just review what Wakefield claimed about the MMR vaccine back in 2019. Indien hij gelijk krijgt natuurlijk. Samen zetten zij zich evenwel af tegen het beleid van keizer Jozef II en streefden zij naar de onafhankelijkheid van de Zuidelijke Nederlanden, hetgeen leidde tot de Brabantse Omwenteling (1789 - 1790). The world is changing and the change is gaining speed ! Van den Bossche or Vandenbossche is a Dutch surname originating in Flanders. Volg VRT NWS op uw smartphone of tablet via de VRT NWS-app. 23.4K. Er bestaat geen bewijs dat de beweringen van Geert Vanden Bossche kan ondersteunen. Geert Vanden Bossche on Twitter De tekst is beschikbaar onder de licentie. We hebben Geert Vanden Bossche gevraagd om te reageren, maar hij verkoos dat niet te doen. mRNA-vaccins werden al volop ontwikkeld vr COVID-19 uitbrak (En coronavaccins zoals Pfizer en Moderna maken gebruik van messenger-RNA dat in de cellen van de mens eiwitten aanmaakt van virusuitsteeksels, red.). In verschillende video's op YouTube waarschuwt de Belgische wetenschapper Geert Vanden Bossche voor een ramp nog groter dan de coronacrisis zelf. This will, indeed, require large vaccination campaigns. A recent review article suggests that immune escape by variants of SARS-CoV-2 is a possibility, but one that hasnt been definitively observed or demonstrated yet: So is there cause for concern? We'll try to work on further translations and regular updates. See what I mean? Ook de theorie achter zijn betoog klopt niet: een vaccin onderdrukt het aangeboren immuunsysteem niet, en onvolledig gevaccineerde mensen helpen een virus niet om te veranderen. They shall only be contradicted by science. Bij de vorming van de Verenigde Nederlandse Staten in 1789 vormden zij de eerder conservatieve fractie tegenover de vonckisten. Ill refer you to Nirenbergs demolition of Dr. Vanden Bossches nonsense about innate immunity, as he explains why its nonsense better than I can. In general, you would have a hard time identifying any human vaccine that could be called leaky (though emerging findings regarding influenza vaccines give hints that there may be a leaky vaccine effect involved, given their excellent efficacy among children, who are critical vectors, I am not so convinced- though if we do grant that they are leaky, this only serves to undermine Bossches argument). Geert Vanden Bossche on Twitter: "Don't vaccinate your children with The resulting type of immune response is unprecedented and licenses the host immune system to readily eliminate infection or to cure disease across a broad range of unrelated pathogens and/ or mammalian species. "It is," Vanden Bossche asserted in one of his letters, "reasonable to assume that vaccination of young and healthy people will inevitably lead to long-lived suppression of their variant-nonspecific, innate immune defense." While mutations to SARS-CoV-2 would be happening regardless of any human intervention, the notion that vaccination might apply evolutionary pressure toward variants that can escape current vaccines is not untenable. Evidence exists that they achieve this effect even against the variant strains of SARS-CoV-2. You can read the links if you want to know more, but the short version is that the acellular pertussis vaccine works but its immunity wanes (as it does after natural infection); this can be corrected with additional booster shots. Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche: Warning Against Monkeypox Vaccinations Een vorige versie van dit stuk meldde dat Geert Vanden Bossche een onbestaande functie bij de Universiteit Gent claimde op LinkedIn. "In de wetenschap weten we nog lang niet alles, dat klopt, maar als iemand een nieuwe claim maakt moet hij wel uitleggen hoe hij dat onderzocht heeft, wie de controlegroep was, enzoverder. Thus if evidence emerges that particular variants do appear to influence vaccine efficacy, it should be possible to periodically reformulate the vaccines so that they better match the circulating strains. One can easily extrapolate this scourge to resistance to our self-made antiviral antibiotics. Dr. Vanden Bossche has also taken to social media to air his concerns, and his message has been enthusiastically embraced by antivaxxers: Lets just say this. Clearly, variability in the spike glycoprotein can affect the efficiency of antibody neutralisation. Het publiekelijk schofferen van wetenshappers of mensen die hun job kwijt raken of beledigd worden omdat ze zich kritisch uitspreken, zulke zaken passen niet in onze cultuur van vrije meningsuiting en open debat. And Dr. Vanden Bossches concerns are based on Science! Naturally grifters are going to use the same arguments, although I dont see any fraud in Dr. Vanden Bossche, other than his scientifically risible arguments. Dit om een bepaalde sfeer te scheppen. Let me try to explain this by means of a more easily understood phenomenon: Antimicrobial resistance. Therefore he has zero credibility when it comes to advising the public or anyone else about how to avoid negative effects of mass vaccination. Samen zetten zij zich evenwel af tegen het beleid van keizer Jozef II en streefden zij naar de onafhankelijkheid van de Zuidelijke Nederlanden, hetgeen leidde tot de Brabantse Omwenteling (1789 - 1790). Statisten - Wikipedia Zijn pleidooi werd vooral opgevangen en verspreid in de vaccin-kritische beweging. p.528-531. [3] [4] Het probleem is volgens Vanden Bossche dat de specifieke antistoffen van het vaccin (dat gebaseerd is op de oorspronkelijke Wuhan-variant) steeds minder werkzaam zullen zijn. Snoeck: Je zou al een zeer complexe virusmutatie op verschillende vlakken nodig hebben. Door verder te surfen gaat u akkoord met. Several variations of the originally isolated strain have emerged since the start of the pandemic, and some of these variants are more infectious, contagious, or possibly deadly. [Editors note: Scott Gavura had circumstances pop up that prevented him from producing a post for today. Volgens Vanden Bossche kunnen onvolledige vaccinaties ertoe leiden dat het coronavirus sneller resistent wordt, met andere woorden bestand tegen het vaccin. Since 2014, however, he has been trying (apparently unsuccessfully) to develop his so-called universal vaccine. Before I get to Vanden Bossches open letter and his warning to the world that mass vaccination with the current COVID-19 vaccines is likely to lead to a global catastrophe due to the proliferation of ever-more-transmissible COVID-19 variants (as if the COVID-19 pandemic itself hasnt been a global catastrophe! Vanden Bossche describes himself on LinkedIn as the inventor of a new type of vaccine that "harnesses the power of the immune system by unlocking the untapped potential of self-centered [NK] cells capable of recognising these unconventional antigens. Agnes van den Bossche (c.1435 - c.1504), Flemish painter. ", While a universal vaccine that could eradicate virtually any disease certainly sounds great, no evidence exists that such a vaccine has ever successfully been developed. Geert Vanden Bossche Stokes Fear of COVID-19 Vaccine To Promote His Own Flawed 'Solution' Anti-vaccine activists are promoting a veterinarian's claim that the only way to prevent a future. En video is zelfs een miljoen keer bekeken. This new type of vaccines harnesses the power of the immune system by unlocking the untapped potential of self-centered Natural Killer (NK) cells capable of recognising these unconventional antigens. Wat beweert hij nu precies en wat is er van aan? Fact-checkers noemt Vanden Bossche marionetten van een georkestreerde smaadcampagne die zich als leek willen mengen in zulk complex gegeven als virologie. Vanden Bossche's scientific argument in broad terms is that the current COVID-19 vaccines, through a mechanism analogous to antibiotic resistance, will create mutant variants of the virus that escape the protection of those vaccines. Mass vaccination will only work if the vaccine prevents or decreases transmission; i.e., if it is not leaky (although he doesnt use the term). Its a very interesting question. 'Vlaamse veearts' reageert op ongefundeerde wetenschappelijk commentaar Zowel bij de experten, bij de politiek als binnen de media zouden er dan logischerwijs evaluaties moeten volgen van hoe en waarom men zo fout was. Maar een virus zou een hele resem mutaties moeten doormaken om het afweersysteem van ons lichaam te omzeilen. Honderdduizenden mensen zagen zijn boodschap intussen. His LinkedIn profile lists several impressive positions, including Head of the Vaccine Development Office for the German Centre for Infection Research (for seven months, August 2017-February 2018); Chief Innovation & Scientific Officer for Univac, where he claimed to be an inventor of a new vaccine technology based on natural killer (NK) cells (2014-2016); and the managing director of VARECO, claiming to be a consultant about vaccine development (2012-present). Geert Vandenbossche, Patric Van Oostveldt (UGent) , Jo Demeester (UGent) and Jean Paul Remon (UGent) ( 1993 ) BIOTECHNOLOGY AND BIOENGINEERING. Ik ben onafhankelijk en neutraal, heb geen aandelen bij vaccin fabrikanten en ben niet gebonden aan contracten die bepalen wat ik al dan niet mag zeggen. And so am I. I searched PubMed for what I expected to be an extensive publication record on vaccines and foundeight publications, the most recent of which was from 1994 and none of which have anything to do with vaccines. Now, lets compare the passage above to what Andrew Wakefield wrote about MMR and vaccines: Antibiotic use has selected out multiply resistant, more dangerous, and more pathogenic strains of bacteria. Wie is Geert Vanden Bossche? (Indeed, thus far, it appears that this is the case.) I think that grifters recognize fellow grifters, and Frei recognized that Dr. Vanden Bossche is stoking fear of existing COVID-19 vaccines to produce a sales rationale for his own NK-based vaccine, just as Andrew Wakefield stoked fear of the MMR in order to support his own measles vaccine. In deze video legt immunoloog Hans-Willem Snoeck uit waarom het voor een virus zeer moeilijk is om bestand te worden tegen een vaccin (lees eronder voort): Ook volgens Favoreel snijdt de stelling van Vanden Bossche geen hout. Van den Bosch is a Dutch toponymic surname, originally indicating either an association with a forest ("bosch", modern Dutch "bos"), with a place/dwelling named "Den Bosch" or with the city Den Bosch.In the Netherlands about 10,200 carried the name in 2007, while in Belgium 3,755 people were named Van Den Bosch and another 3,164 were named Vandenbosch, Vandebosch or Vanden Bosch in 2008. Hoe minder je kopieert, hoe kleiner de kans dat er een kopieerfout gebeurt.. Dit standpunt is niet onomstreden. Laat ons een sereen, publiek debat voeren over de vragen die van belang zijn in plaats van te twitteren. Hes arguing that vaccinating the elderly protects them, but because the virus will therefore be forced to infect the young it will only be able to do so if it can somehow escape immunity to the antibodies to spike protein (S-specific Abs) transiently raised in asymptomatic subjects. Reality aside, invoking the innate immune system provides two rhetorical benefits. Reading the letter, what it reminded me, more than anything else, is an article that Andrew Wakefield wrote about the MMR vaccine and measles, published a few months before the pandemic hit. "The underlying fallacy," Omer explained, is that a natural infection is better than a vaccine. Ze vindt wereldwijd slechts twee onderzoeken naar een NK-vaccin tegen COVID-19, die bovendien allebei nog niet van start zijn gegaan. While Vanden Bossche's ideas may be rooted in actual scientific concepts, his argument quite explicitly relies on sweeping assumptions. In verschillende video's op YouTube waarschuwt de Belgische wetenschapper Geert Vanden Bossche voor een ramp nog groter dan de coronacrisis zelf. A very similar mechanism may also apply to viruses, especially to viruses that can easily and rapidly mutate (which is, for example, the case with Coronaviruses); when the pressure exerted by the armys (read: populations) immune defense starts to threaten viral replication and transmission, the virus will take on another coat so that it can no longer be easily recognized and, therefore, attacked by the host immune system. Unless I am scientifically proven wrong, it is difficult to understand how current human interventions will prevent circulating variants from turning into a wild monster. Opleiding [ bewerken | brontekst bewerken ] Jul 4, 2022 Replying to @GVDBossche This suboptimal immune pressure exerted by large populations is now confronted with a viral variant! The role of spike protein variability inT cell immunity is likely to be elucidated in experimental studies in the next few months; a priori, the enhanced repertoire of T cell epitopes makes the loss of cytotoxic activity or recognition improbable. One answer is, why not? De statisten waren een politieke fractie tijdens de Brabantse Omwenteling, die aanhangers waren van de Staten. His LinkedIn profile lists several jobs in upper management positions, including a three-year stint as the senior program officer for vaccine discovery at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Geert Vanden Bossche, Stefan Bouckaert, C DEMUYNCK, Guy Mommens, Alex Van Zeveren (UGent) and Jean Paul Remon (UGent) ( 1992 ) AMERICAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH. Vanden Bossche beweerde enkele weken geleden dat binnen enkele weken de besmettingen zouden toenemen in de landen waar reeds massaal is gevaccineerd. Enjoy! [1] In 2018 he was elected president of the Society of International Economic Law (SIEL). All of these variants were discovered prior to any widespread vaccination program. De geschiedenis toont echter aan dat het helemaal niet gevaarlijk is om massaal te vaccineren tijdens een epidemie. As we explain below, this scenario is speculative, scientifically flawed, logically inconsistent, and belied by actual data.
