The Irish Times – Jan 25, 2021
US vaccine giant Merck is discontinuing development of its two experimental Covid-19 vaccines after early trial data showed they failed to generate immune responses comparable to a natural infection or existing vaccines.
The US drug giant, known in Ireland as MSD, has a history of successfully developing vaccines, and had adopted a different strategy from rivals Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson, using a more traditional approach of focusing on shots based on weakened viruses.
Merck received interim results from its early-stage trials this month.
The results were “disappointing, and a bit of a surprise”, said Nick Kartsonis, senior vice-president of clinical research for infectious diseases and vaccines at Merck Research Laboratories.
Both shots generated fewer neutralising antibodies to halt infection than other Covid-19 vaccines, and produced inferior immune responses compared with people who had naturally contracted the coronavirus.
“We didn’t have what we needed to be able to move forward,” Mr Kartsonis said in an interview Sunday.
After evaluating the data, Merck’s senior leadership decided to discontinue the programmes and divert resources to the company’s efforts to develop Covid-19 treatments. – Bloomberg

A “virus” (really an exosome) is NOT “alive” in any sense of the word, so how can a vaccine contain a “weakened” version?
The trouble is that the fraudsters have brainwashed us all from birth to believe “germs” and “viruses” are real as the causative agents of disease, resulting in most “awake” people not realising the WHOLE THING is a complete fraud.
We need to do two things if we are ever to have real medicine.
1) – We need to accept that the entire “germ theory”, including the later “virus” add-on, has been fraudulent from it’s inception.
2) – We need to take the money out of medicine. If there were no vast profits to be made from medical fraud, there would be no incentive to LIE about “germs”, “viruses” and the claimed “effectiveness” of dangerous “vaccines”.
If they have not isolated the alleged virus,,, how would they know a person has it – the PCR is useless- OR how to make a vaccine. They could not,,, can not and is why they stopped.
