Brain-dead take. Don't be bamboozled. Read carefully, I'll emphasize the important bit for you to see how your title and the sensational headline. See if you can spot the flaw in the headline claim:

the new variant “may be more capable of causing infection in people who have previously had COVID-19 or who have received COVID-19 vaccines.”

It means people who have had jabs OR been sick might get it. This is contrasted with previous strains of the virus which were largely shrugged off by the pureblood who had been infected (as well as the jabbies who were allegedly not susceptible because of the jab). They are saying prior immunity doesn't help this time and you should be VERY AFRAID. I'm gonna need some data before I decide to be afraid, I just want to point out the claim being made in the headline is exactly wrong.

The OP headline is still accurate. Yes it omitted previously infected, but during the whole pandemic, everyone ignored all previous infection information, so why start now?
