Time will tell.

Which is why people who got COVID can get it multiple times and immunity only lasts a few months.

Because natural immunity is "stronger".\

And all you have to do is roll the dice with a highly contagious disease that can cause disability or death! Yay!

Vaccine effectiveness is down to what, 46%?

Which doesn't change whether you have natural immunity, vaccination, or no immunity.

Would you rather have a 10% chance of severe illness or a 1% chance of severe illness?

The same is said about the flu shot that usually doesn't work, but never saw any evidence of that actually happening. If you're vulnerable I guess you don't have much to lose but if you're relatively healthy it seems like a waste.

Unless you want to reduce the risk of spreading a deadly infection to others?

That's why I originally got vaccinated but it wasn't made for the variants we're seeing. Vaccinated people can still get them and spread it.

But it's less likely. Vaccines are never 100% effective, because they rely on your immune system to function, and your immune system can fail.

You need to retain a critical eye because there's billions of dollars at stake and these companies have a history of fucking us over for less.
