For almost two years, COVID-19 vaccine holdouts have been the objects of earnest pleading and financial inducements, of social-media shaming and truth campaigns. They’ve missed weddings, birthday celebrations and recitals, and even forfeited high-stakes athletic competitions. Until last month, they were barred from entering the United States and more than 100 other countries.
Now the unvaccinated are suddenly back in the mix. They’re dining in restaurants, rocking out at music festivals and filling the stands at sporting venues. They mingle freely in places where they used to be shunned for fear they’d seed superspreader events.
It’s as if they’re no longer hazardous to the rest of us. Or are they?
“Clearly, the unvaccinated are a threat to themselves,” said Dr. Jeffrey Shaman, an infectious disease specialist at Columbia University. As recently as August, their risk of dying of COVID-19 was six times higher than for people who were fully vaccinated and eight times higher than for people who were vaccinated and boosted, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
But, Shaman acknowledged, “the danger to the rest of us is a more debatable issue.”
The Path From Pandemic
This is the third in an occasional series of stories about the transition out of the COVID-19 pandemic and how life in the U.S. will be changed in its wake.
When public officials imposed vaccine mandates, the unvaccinated certainly appeared to pose demonstrable dangers to their communities.
State and local leaders sought not only to suppress spread of the virus, but also to prevent their healthcare systems from being overwhelmed, degrading care for all. The unvaccinated made those goals harder to achieve since they were more likely to become infected and, when they did, to require hospitalization.

As much of a danger as they’ve ever been, which is to say, NONE.
That is consistent with the science. The Shots only work against the spike protein of the Origical virus, and Omicron has a different Spike Protein. If Fauci wan't a tool of Big Pharma, he would have told us all this.
Since You've had Covid, you are immune to Covid for a while and don't need any more shots. Fauci used to say stuff like that, but a lightbulb went off in his little weasel brain and he realized there is no money in it.
If you would have received the Bivalent shot, you probably would have gotten a Strain of Covid around Feb '23, and your reaction would have been Even Worse.
Big Pharma is going to continue to lie to us, until Dems realize they have been duped, too.
Have you ever seen so many weasel words in a “scientifically-based” article?
The lying bastards.
“is a more debatable issue - certainly appeared to pose - more likely to become - remains a possibility - are sharply reduced - were believed to have been - An unknown number of Americans - though not so much the other way around - may provide - can vary based on - range in vulnerability - the role the unvaccinated could play - kind of a patchwork - changing over time, and it’s changing over space - will become indistinguishable - vaccines appear to - more likely to be - somewhat more likely to - hard to assert that - likely to remain a presence - are almost certainly - how much is hard to pinpoint - much trickier - could accelerate the emergence - some of which are bound to be - are much more likely to - that can spawn - most of them are - If it drives - become a more plausible prospect - That could be a lethal mistake”
Yes, they are dangerous. They will receive more than their fair share of Social Security and Medicare.
Totalitarians are still a danger to all of us.
Nice!
That article is political messaging. That is all.
IF you run into health problems...look into PEMF...or look now...it is intwresting
My daughter calls us the purebloods. When someone asks, tell them that. We’ve all had covid. 4 of us are over 68. No one has died. Those friends who did die, did not die of covid. They died with covid.
“As recently as August, their risk of dying of COVID-19 was six times higher than for people who were fully vaccinated and eight times higher than for people who were vaccinated and boosted, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention”...said Shaman.
According to the analysis of all the experts, I am already dead.
I can safely ignore them now!
About 2.5 Billion of the 4 billion didn't need the vaccine. They were under 50 years old and heathly.
If 0.1% (1 in 10,000) of those 2.5B had a "vacccine injury/death", that is 250,000 Young/Healthy people needlessly injured/killed. When the real numbers come out, they will be much higher than 1 in 10,000.
Its not like the vaccines actually stop people from getting Covid. Most of the 4 Billion will get Covid eventually, anyway. The healthy weren't going to be hospitalized/die. The Sooner the Healthy get/get over the disease, the faster the diesease would have gone away.
Vaccinating the healthy may have prolonged our agony.

I did take Plaxovid and the Wuhan Whooping Gleep was gone in 5 days. It’s all engineered.
This message brought ot you by Pfizer.
Do you know anyone who got vexxed that you would miss if they died?
Asking for a friend.
Yes. Many, many people.

Are the Unvaccinated Still a Danger to the Rest of Us?Only in your mind.
I think we are just getting started...the life expectancy of the US went down 3 or 4 years last year alone.
