My dad got a booster dose a few days ago. He’s very high risk with arthritis-stiffened lungs. I was surprised this was an option considering there is an open debate about boosters.

The debate is around whether the immunity boost is significant enough to be warranted for healthy people. I don't think that there's much debate that boosters help at least a little, which is important for those who are at risk.

This is the mentality we're up against. I only want to hear opinions from other people who think for themselves, and also they have to agree with me! |

On the positive side, while the woman above will never be converted (she's on a ventilator now btw), the vaxx hesitant are not a lost cause:

There's really nothing new to talk about in here these days. Get vaccinated.. You'll be fine. Don't get vaccinated... Take your chances. /end
*bonus round* Still not sold on boosters. |

People talk about the poor anti vaxxers who are being ridiculed and treated meanly, but god damn look at the shit those idiots are posting on social media. Constantly gloating that they didn't get the vaccine and how everyone that did get it are idiots, then they end up dying and crying for help.

Had to listen to an idiot while getting my hair cut Monday about how he doesn't need the vaccine because he has lifetime natural immunity because he had covid in January 2020. First off, who knows if he even had it since no tests were available then. He could have had an antibody test at some point but he didn't strike me as the type to put in the effort. And secondly, people have been infected 2 and 3 times, especially once the OG strain started mutating. And lastly, no non-facebook doctor or scientist has claimed there is lifetime immunity, especially with variants.

Even people who only had mild cases. Asymptomatic cases are still under study last I looked, though I saw at least one that was pointing to them also having at least some natural immunity. Not a case for skipping the shot. Studies have also shown that getting the shot after recovering from COVID provides better protection than just having had the vaccination alone or natural immunity alone. |
