Butt the symptoms were less severe.
Just think how much more they would have suffered had they not been vaccinated.
well...from reading the article...it appears that the CDC is now hedging on that claim. The following statement appears near the bottom of the article.
“There is some evidence that being vaccinated may make illness less severe for patients who contact the virus, according to the CDC.”
As Rush always said, “words mean things,” and the words in this statement mean something very important. The CDC has no real clue whether the jab makes the illness less severe or not. There is just “some evidence” that it makes the illness less severe.
As time goes on, the “health officials” keep walking back their claims about the jab. First it would prevent covid. And if you got the jab, you could move on with life. Then it went to, “there may be a few break through cases, but it will be very mild.” Then to, “vaccinated folks can spread the disease, but they will not get bad sick.” Then it was, “vaccinated need to wear masks inside.” Then “wear masks outside.” Then “the jab won’t keep you from getting covid, but if you do, it will be mild.” And now finally...it’s “there is SOME EVIDENCE that being vaccinated MAY make illness less severe.”
And they act shocked and bewildered that some of us are skeptical and unwilling to take a vaccine that won’t stop the disease, and that there is just “some evidence” that it “may” make the disease less severe. And no one has any clue as to what the vaccine will do to a recipient in two, three or more years.
I will not subject myself to that risk.
