[QUOTE="HonestAbe, post: 340858, member: 25390"] I circled the important part in red for you. It doesn't mean it's not interesting, just that you shouldn't jump to conclusions until it's been peer reviewed and the results repeated. Also, if the pfizer vaccine gives you a much lower chance of getting the virus in the first place, and over time, that amount increases but it still protects you very well, that's not an argument against NOT getting it. If you have an 8% chance of getting it while vaccinated, and that chance increases by 95% that doesn't mean you have a 95% chance of getting the virus.. you get that right? It goes from being 8% to like, almost 16%. Even if that particular vaccine's efficacy against the delta variant has faded some, it's still more effective than some other vaccines AND widely accepted as being a very impressive and good result. You can only get natural immunity if you contract the virus, and contracting the virus is very dangerous. It's really that simple. Lowering your chances of getting the virus in the first place, and more importantly lowering your chances of spreading it is the best possible option. If we let the virus rampage through the unvaccinated as it is, not only will more people die, but it increases the chances of a new variant developing in the unvaccinated. To be clear, I am not a virologist, but I definitely listen to them since they've studied this stuff for many years and have a better understanding of things than you or I do. It pays to read the stuff you all link, though props for actually linking to a site that isn't a blog or social media. I can find a ton of social media posts backing up any view I want (like the earth is flat). I'm not saying social media is worthless, but if anyone is using that as the only source of their information then good luck. [/QUOTE]
