It's the completely cautious POV, better stated would be .


"we don't know that you can't get it again after 90 days" or even more exactly "we've seen test result with antibodies still in the body at 90 days, that's the only data we have" It's odd because it goes against my understanding of virus illness, I always thought getting the disease as the ultimate vaccination you can get, just with all the bad side effects. Polio? Measles? There was "a" person who still showed immunity to the Spanish Flu 90 years later type stuff, pretty much solved for life.

I actually think one reason for everyone getting the shot even if you've had Covid might be that we don't have accurate, consistent records of who had it and who didn't - I mean, it might be obvious that someone had it but, there wasn't an accurate scientific test for it at the time that was applied consistently across the entire population - so why not just vaccinate everyone and let that be that final consistent baseline for future studies.

I think this is a we don't know what we don't know stance. It would be common sense to me that if you could get it again, well, then you would have seen a LOT of that by now, thousands of clear-cut cases.. I saw an anecdotal study in England that out of 6000 people that had it they have ~ 50 "candidates" for people that might have gotten it again. Candidates?

tired of getting messaged all the time. The CDC site seems to be a study in obfuscation, alway taking the .001% worst case as the norm. Just explain things to me, I can take it. And yes, I plan on getting the vaccine, somehow managed at 64 and 11 months not being anything, not even 1c!!! They will open it up to everybody on my b'day, I tell you.

  That’s just the word of extreme conservatism. -- BG Hokie 03/06/2021 6:14PM

  But how is the vaccine different in that regard? -- MP4VT2004 03/05/2021 9:10PM
