Of course it was never said to give 100% protection, but it was said to give 95% protection soon after they started giving the shots to those in the health field. Even by April of 2021 they were using that number. Then slowly they told us 75% protective. Then after that, they said, well, you might get CoVid and even be able to pass it on to others, but you won’t get very sick. It took them months before they started to tell the truth, that the effectiveness waned after a few months.
You know what? I got a smallpox vaccine when I was 7 or 8. That was well over 50 years ago. I never got smallpox, and I never knew one person who got smallpox, ever in my whole life. That’s what a real vaccine does.
This shot has been a sham from the get go. I applaud Trump (an admitted germaphobe) for trying his best to get rid of regulations that stifle innovation, but this wasn’t the panacea that we were led to believe it would be.
False analogy. The original claim of ~90+ effectiveness was against the alpha variant. The virus has mutated and the predominant variant is omicron where the vaccine is far less effective. Very similar to the flu vaccine where this years vaccine would be less effective against the flu strains of days gone by.
You do realize that the small pox vaccine also loses effectiveness with the passage of time?
The principal reason no one gets small pox now is because almost everyone got the vaccine. You do realize the same attacks being made against the COVID vaccines were made against the small pox vaccines? Today it is claimed that the covid vaccines will change your dna. Yesterday, it was claimed that the small pox vaccine would turn you into a cow. Then it was claimed that the vaccine contained all sorts of noxious ingredients like bat feces. Now the anti-vaxxers claim it contains luciferase.
