I wont take it. Why do you need a vaccine for an anomaly that has a recovery rate of over 99%? I believe that I had it in late January of last year. I had all of the classic symptoms and recovered in a couple of days.
Define "recovery" - after spending two weeks or more deathly ill at home, or worse, in an ICU? You should want to go through that and tax the healthcare system because you will most likely "recover" when you don't have to? What sense does that make?
Do some research as to how this virus has affected countless lives in this country and the toll it has taken on multiple businesses and entities, the healthcare system, and the number of people it has affected long term and the misery it has caused so many families and friends. Why comment on something you know nothing about and haven't bothered to research? Serious question.
it has a survivability rate of 90-97%, age dependent, country dependent.
psysiological damage done affects ‘recovery rate’.
“Heart. Imaging tests taken months after recovery from COVID-19 have shown lasting damage to the heart muscle, even in people who experienced only mild COVID-19 symptoms. This may increase the risk of heart failure or other heart complications in the future.
Lungs. The type of pneumonia often associated with COVID-19 can cause long-standing damage to the tiny air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs. The resulting scar tissue can lead to long-term breathing problems.
Brain. Even in young people, COVID-19 can cause strokes, seizures and Guillain-Barre syndrome — a condition that causes temporary paralysis. COVID-19 may also increase the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.
pick your poison
Let’s say you did catch the virus and your natural immune system is programmed to fight the virus the next time you are infected. Let’s say in that distant future, a new variant comes along that your immune system does not recognize. Then, you get the sickness again. Also, how long does your immune system remember your first infection? What if your immune system is compromised? What if future viruses are more deadly? What we want to do is get enough people vaccinated before the present virus creates a variant that can be resistant to the vaccine as will as the natural immuneties.
I know my explanation raises more questions and might get you upset, so I turn it over to Dr. John Campbell on You Tube:

Elderly people, especially in nursing homes, need it.
