A recent study on the immune effects of Pfizer’s COVID-19 mRNA vaccine has scientists raising concerns about vaccine-acquired immune deficiencies.

Vaccine-acquired immune deficiency syndrome (VAIDS) is a new colloquial term coined by researchers and health practitioners since the COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
