Targeting the spike protein (as part of the overall virus) literally attacks the virus preventing it from infecting cells and thus reduce both the spread of the disease and its symptoms. Not sure why you are saying it only acts on symptoms?!
I asked in good faith. If you have arguments, present them. Otherwise don’t presume to know how much I read or I understand on this subject.
Targetting the spike protein means your immune system creates antibodies which attack the spike protein - it literally does not mean the antibodies produced attack the virus itself - only the spike protein.
The spike protein is what produces a lot of the adverse reactions when people contract the disease - or when people consent to the medical treatments designed only to reduce symptoms.
Seriously, this information is out there, and your understanding of this subject seems rather different from mine.
The spike protein is part of the virus itself, on its outer layer, used to "unlock" and enter cells during the infection process. I don't see how it can be possible to attack the spike without attacking the virus.
This is my current understanding of the subject. I will try to educate myself further, accepting that I may be misinformed, but I seriously doubt it. At this point I rather believe you are the misinformed one, belief sustained by your refusal to provide any links supporting your position.
