Then these shouldn't be called vaccines.

I am aware of them, these also should not be called vaccines.

nommm-nommm | karma 4083 | avg karma 2.09 · | 2016-09-07 03:36:07+00:00

That's not what a vaccine is.

What makes them not vaccines?

We should not call them vaccines, they work totally different. These are gene treatments.

as long as vaccines are optional it should be fine. But calling them vaccines is an overstatement

Not a vaccine.

We really need to stop using the word "vaccine" for these jabs - it's completely the wrong descriptor.

bawolff | karma 19532 | avg karma 3.08 · | 2022-11-24 16:22:01

Which is not the type of vaccine the article is about.

muricula | karma 1083 | avg karma 3.55 · | 2021-04-09 22:02:38+00:00

Buddy, that's not a vaccine.

detaro | karma 40664 | avg karma 1.79 · | 2022-11-20 11:14:57

Why do you think this doesn't qualify as a "vaccine"? Calling it such seems to make some sense to me.

quaffapint | karma 1668 | avg karma 3.2 · | 2021-12-27 07:42:44

I wonder if it would be less confusing if we simply stopped referring to these as vaccines and just as shots.

dragonwriter | karma 118260 | avg karma 2.17 · | 2021-06-20 04:02:50+00:00

Vaccines are not a method of treatment.

djKianoosh | karma 554 | avg karma 1.7 · | 2018-01-27 17:47:03+00:00

it's not a vaccine, is it?

Sammi | karma 1364 | avg karma 1.86 · | 2024-05-02 16:47:13

The article isn't about that vaccine.

entropy_ | karma 732 | avg karma 3.31 · | 2012-05-22 09:19:50+00:00

There's another one that says "big pharma" so I doubt that's what's being referred to as "vaccines"

kasey_junk | karma 13439 | avg karma 2.75 · | 2015-01-22 14:44:58

Interestingly enough, this article isn't about vaccinations.

ekianjo | karma 34827 | avg karma 2.44 · | 2022-01-01 12:20:34

yeah, vaccine is marketing-speak. We should call these shots something else, because that's not what people typically understand by the word "vaccine". But that ship to fight on the name has sailed for a long time.

> Non-immunizing treatments should not be called vaccines

What do you consider immunizing?
