what happened to the last topic

Got modded for trolling. It shouldnt get modded if I dont voice an opinion about how things were reported a couple months ago compared to now.

Was just trying to say certain things were said when we opened up and said masks off. Which data now doesnt align with.

J&J has a similar issue and so now the J&J vaccine is gonna become a 2 shot.

Basically. Bottom line is some vaccinated will still get sick and can still pass it on. It reduces the risk of severe Covid tremendously. Herd immunity just isn't going to happen. The only way to really protect yourself is to be vaccinated and other measures can still help reduce spread.

It's actually a setting you can toggle otherwise blocking someone also blocks their quotes from unblocked posters

In 3 months, there's a 20% drop in efficacy. What will happen in 6 months? There's a real possibility everyone will be lining up for a booster shot every year to contend to the virus. I don't like this possibility.

The more important thing imo is whether or not it continues to be an effective means of reducing symptom severity past the "effectiveness" date. I don't care that much if I get it, I just don't want to lose my sense of taste and all that shit

the alternative is to let the virus run rampant and become deadlier. if we could have actually locked down, masked up, and done our civic duty the pandemic could have been over by now and there would barely be a need for a booster shot. unfortunately, the pandemic was politicized and idiocy allowed the pandemic to keep coursing through the world

I got Pfizer, but originally I was more interested in Moderna, but I'd heard Moderna had stronger side effects, and I had like almost zero side effects from my Pfizer shots so idk. I'll take a booster idgaf, it'll probably be no different than usual.

they would be if we compelled everyone to get vaccinated. the fact that we're never going to see a vaccination rate above 80% means we're always going to have uncontrolled spread and that means we're always going to have favorable conditions for mutation that defeat the vaccine.

that dropoff makes some sense if you understand how the immune system works. basically there's a shift from fast acting but unstable molecules towards longer lasting but slower ones. makes you more likely to have a "breakthrough" infection, but because you've still got a resistance the immune system mounts a response quickly and you end up with very light symptoms.

the reason why you have a flu shot every year isn't because you lose that immunity, its because the shot targets proteins on the virus that are highly mutable, they change fairly rapidly from generation to generation. essentially the flu vaccine is updated every year to account for that mutation. this is the same reason they might issue booster shots for covid, though less because its got a high mutation rate and more because its explosive spread = more mutations.

Why the fuck did the virus mutate and still kept it's potency? Wasn't it supposed to mutate and become weaker towards the common cold/flu?

They USUALLY do. That said, the sheer amount of mutations that are occurring worldwide made this a guarantee sooner or later.

I guess that means it's a good thing I got the Moderna one.

Although I'm expecting that we'll all have to get booster shots at this rate, regardless of which vaccine you got.
