How many times I must educate low IQ people that no vaccine can "prevent" infection? Only way to "prevent" covid infection is construct a virus proof filter in nose and throat. Mask is not virus proof. First it is not air tight on cheeks & chin. Second, virus is very small and most masks are too porous.
Only purpose of vaccines is to create antibodies. Those help fight the virus after it infects, not before.
Covid vaccines are only good until the next variant appears. Covid-19 virus has been mutating every few months. Same thing with Flu virus. It mutates every year so the flu shot is needed every year.
Just like Flu, covid will be with us for ever. Both will keep mutating and your natural resistance from previous infection is useless after it mutates.
My own case anecdote is I had 4 shots of covid vaccine starting 16 months ago. In last 16 months I have done 6 cruises, 65 visits to land restaurants, 96 visits to grocery stores, 12 visits to Home Depot, 50 visits to cancer hospital to escort my wife for treatments who is fighting stage-4 cancer for almost 4 years & 5 months, 3 visits to my doctor for routine exam, 3 visits to Quest lab for routine blood work, 2 visits to eye doctor, dozen visits to bank & post office etc etc
GUESS WHAT, NEVER GOT SICK WITH COVID!! Was it the vaccine or my natural immunity from spending 20 years in virus infested India! I will never know. My wife also had 4 jabs of covid vaccine, and enjoyed 6 cruises with me since the pandemic arrived. She never got sick with covid either. So I am leaning towards the vaccine to help our bodies kill the virus quickly after we inhale it, so symptoms never show up. We were both tested for covid before all 6 cruises at CVS pharmacy. Never positive !!!!!!
