Because it's not a vaccine?

mama used to take my temperature in my butt, so my preference is to get my vaccine using a turkey baster.

i will take both jabs in one shot.

Of course its a vaccine. No vaccine in the world, ever, in the history of mankind, has had a 100% protective effect. Most vaccines are considered to be doing pretty well to have a 90% effectiveness, and even then, there are people for whom it never takes.

Due to a medical condition I have, I am considered at high risk of Hepatitis B. (One of my medications can reactivate the Hep B virus if it is in my system.) So in the last three years, I've been vaccinated against Hep B twice, and in both cases, the vaccine's protective effect has lasted less than a year. It normally lasts for a minimum of ten years.

Vaccines aren't magic.

Don't worry the CDC has reconfigured the PCR threshold rates for breakthrough cases so pretty soon the manipulated "data" will show that those cases don't exist.

The 95% of the world that isn't Mordor the USA: "Who the fuck cares what the CDC does?"

You sepos need to get over yourselves, you aren't the entire world. We've got our own standards.

It's been known since the beginning what the vaccine does and does not do...

What the vaccine does do:

  • Protect against minor symptoms;

  • Allows you to travel;

What the vaccine does not do:

  • Protect against actually getting the COVID-1984;

  • Prevent infecting others with the COVID-1984 that you have caught anyway;

  • Prevent the worst symptoms, such as death;

what the vaccine does and does not do

"The vaccine". There are sixteen Covid-19 vaccines approved for use around the world, based on four completely distinct biological principles. "The" vaccine doesn't exist.

In the case of the AZ vaccine, it has been obvious since the first Oxford animal trials that that it protects against infection of the lungs and lower respiratory system, and so protects well against the worst forms of Covid pneumonia that is so often deadly. It doesn't protect nearly so well against infection of the upper respiratory tract (nasal passages), and as far as I can tell nobody has made any effort at all to investigate how well it protects against the virus spreading to other organs.

So if you are talking about the AZ vaccine, you have it completely backwards: it has a strong protective effect against the Covid pneumonia that will kill you, but only a weak effect against cold-like symptoms.
