so people got two injections to try to prevent COVID, and come to find out, they didn’t work.

So now they are pushing boosters to what exactly?

Not work either?

No evidence from this that they don’t work. What seems to be the case is that immunity declines over time (as it does for natural infection).

In this study the likelihood of getting Covid doubles after 6 months. That means the vaccine goes from 95% effective to 90%.

Immunity will continue to fade, and that does mean a booster may be needed every few years, but that is normal for vaccines.

We may still avoid that. There is good evidence the vaccines also reduce severity, so you might get it, but if your immune system is primed by a vaccine it will be no worse than the common cold.
