@pattydee2000 The thing is, it’s trying to make the point that being vaccinated doesn’t prevent you from getting COVID, thereby questioning the point of the vaccine. But the vaccine doesn’t prevent anything - it’s just reduces the impact on your health. (Like the flu shot.)

The vaccine does not create immunity. It creates living through case of #covid and not dying like my four dead ones.
I’ve had every vax & booster and got covid last summer while on vacay in PA. No one masks there. I made the mistake of removing mine as well. Instant covid. ER doc said if I weren’t properly vaxxed, he’d be admitting me to ICU not taking X-ray and sending me home with RX for #Paxlovid, which worked great.

I think you misunderstood what I meant. I know it doesn't. I also never risked it even after we were told we could unmask after the first series. We were told it creates immunity in the beginning, hence the vaccine passports & masks being lifted. They didn't have the time to study the LTD, bc the vaccines were on an elevated schedule. I personally understand the reasoning. Unfortunately those that don't/don't want to, are using the early info as a gotcha.

I'm really glad the vax helped you. My friend died in his early 40s bc he didn't get it. I am 100% pro vax here. I'm just pointing out that the information has changed, because it's the truth.

My husband & I are still #covidvirgins. My young & affectionate kid caught it at school, but we took precautions & it thankfully didn't spread.
We were told the vaccine created immunity, hence the lifted mask mandates after the 1st series. Which was later rightfully backtracked, but the damage was done. Just like saying masks won't help in the very beginning. Then telling people to make t-shirt masks. I understand the reasoning, but it's fuel for the #Qult.
