Hello, I've been following Dr Poland's brilliant work. Thank you for your service to science and candidness with your experience. I had an extended inflammatory response of tinnitus, as well as muscle, joint, lymph pain and fatigue after first Phyzer dose. Much resolved after weeks and months however the tinnitus has been pervasive since and hesitant to take 2nd dose as able to mask, work from home, and without significant predisposition to covid risks. Weighing risks and benefits wondered about holding out for variant specific vaccine as a better course of action at this point? Dr Poland said he personally is interested in protein vaccine given his experience and I'd felt similarly and would greatly appreciate knowing (if and when) the USA will have access to protein vaccines? Lastly, has his own tinnitus and patients tinnitus diminished or resolved? (Mine seems worse.) Thank you so much in advance. I am grateful for insight!
