Oh you mean to tell me that the first 6 needles they offered up did absolutely nothing for the long run? Guess we’ll just toss another 6 needles into everyone for this type of Covid too. Wonder how quickly the whole population has long term health problems due to that.
Lemme guess… you have a degree in immunology from trump university
Close. It was the school of hard knocks. Equally shitty.
I assumed it was Prager U.
Nobody got 6 doses, so you’re already strawmanning.
Second, the original vaccine was highly effective against original Covid. Then it mutated so a booster was necessary, and that was dramatically effective in the long run. Deaths fell. Hospitalizations fell. Long Covid fell. The change in those factors is what allowed life to resume.
Antivaxxers are a shitplague.
I'd prefer avoiding to contribute to the worst long term health problem. Death.
Get your vaccines people.
It'll continue to be better than the long term health problems caused by actual Covid infections.
This is not going to be different from the annual flu vaccine. None of this is unusual or surprising. Get your shots, folks.
Hey man, it’s your life, but I wouldn’t go advertising to the world if I was uneducated and gullible
Turns out the way to approach problems changes as the problem changes. Who knew?
And what's your scientific basis for thinking that?
Creationism isn't a good look.
