The Hidden Cost of COVID Vaccines: How Immune Escape Shapes the Pandemic

Geert Vanden Bossche argues that the COVID-19 mass vaccination program has unintentionally reshaped the virus in dangerous ways. Instead of stopping the pandemic, the vaccines (which were non-sterilizing, spike-based, and given during an active outbreak) created strong immune pressure that forced the virus to adapt.

Immune Escape

The vaccines did not stop infection or transmission.

This allowed the virus to “escape” the immune system by evolving new variants.

At first, this meant antibodies no longer worked well. Now, it’s also affecting T-cell responses.

Chronic Infections & Long COVID

Because vaccinated people often don’t fully clear the virus, more end up with chronic or repeated infections.

These persistent infections become breeding grounds for new “cryptic” variants.

Wastewater studies and rising long COVID cases suggest this is widespread.

Variant Evolution

Variants are converging toward forms that can better dodge immune defenses.

Initially, antibody-related immune escape led to Omicron.

Now, the concern is that T-cell–related immune escape could lead to a super-variant.

The “HIVICRON” Warning

Geert Vanden Bossche predicts the eventual emergence of a highly virulent variant (nicknamed “HIVICRON”).

This variant could use extra sugar molecules (glycans) on its spike protein to hide from the immune system.

If that happens, vaccinated populations could face rapid, severe illness with high death rates.

Unvaccinated Populations

Geert Vanden Bossche speculates that unvaccinated people may fare better because their innate immunity is still intact.

HIVICRON might be so deadly it reduces its own ability to spread, which could also limit its impact in unvaccinated groups.

Conclusion

Mass vaccination turned a short-term pandemic into a long-term “immune escape” crisis.

Instead of herd immunity, we now have a virus under constant immune pressure, pushing it toward greater infectiousness and, eventually, greater virulence.

Geert Vanden Bossche calls this a catastrophic mistake in public health policy.
