Not sure why this is so hard to comprehend. Over 100 Million Americans have been vaccinated. Even if a vaccine is 99.9% effective, you are still going to have thousands of people testing positive after vaccination. So far, the only way to get nearly 100% immunity is to catch COVID. For younger people, that is probably the best way to immunity. The older (or fatter) you get, the more the balance tilts toward the vaccine being a better choice. Choose what is best for you and your family.

ABSOLUTELY! Good to see the last post (#19) in this thread contains both actual knowledge and common sense. Hope the harpies don’t attack you. ;-)
The chart below shows two values of R0 (0.5 and 0.9). Note that the dates are written DD/MM/YYYY. Lower R0, the faster the disease "dies out."
This simple model and animation shows how higher vaccination rates prevent disease spread. Note that the model shows "vaccination failures" where a vaccinated person still catches the disease: What is herd immunity?, June 11, 2012.
This story is much ado about nothing -- it's nothing but a human interest story designed to keep fear going.
You are wrong, here is one of a dozen peer reviewed proof that reinfection is not only possible it is probable.

Feel free to post a retort study showing 100% post infection immunity. Only peer reviewed science will be accepted. You won’t find any save your time.and ours with baseless opinions.
