I would prefer asymptomatic anytime of the day over symptomatic. If vaccinated people won’t get sick enough to be hospitalized, it will reduce fear of covid-19.
I am now 100% sure I was infected on the Carnival cruise early this year. Had a strange and unusual dry cough for a 10-12 days post-cruise. My body fought it off and I never got sick again, and continuing normal activities. Florida did not close down much at all. All my favorite seafood joints along beach on A1A highway are open. I go to Walmart and Aldi every week. I escort wife every 3 weeks for cancer treatments. I think I am immune from that mild infection in early March. So what if I am 80 years old.
The vaccine will be very effective in reducing fear of covid-19 similar to my losing fear of getting sick.
I hope you’re right about your immunity. I’m fairly certain wife and I contacted CV on a cruise back in sep 2019.
However, many think that a vaccine would allow them to return to normal. If as Fauci claimed, the vaccines would only treat the symptoms, not provide immunity, then those who take the vaccines could still spread the virus.
Look at it this way. Supposedly, you should wear a mask and practice all the protocols in the event you’re infected but asymptomatic. Then the vaccine won’t allow the lifting of the restrictions since you can still infect others. It’s the same old “wear a mask to protect others, not to protect yourself”.
