Considering that new variants are constantly evolving, what’s the point? Just like the flu, you have to get vaccinated every year and even then, you are still a carrier. It may mitigate some symptoms but ultimately, it will not stop COVID. Lockdowns don’t work, either. Ask Australia and New Zealand that. Denmark has virtually done the opposite of what those nations are doing and they are doing fine. Let the virus take its course and exhaust its host reservoirs.

Fully agree. None of the measures or mandates have any positive effect, and a 'leaky' vaccine that does not confer immunity will never stop the spread of a virus. Flattening the curve just extends it out indefinately. Anyone that has had exposure the 'virus' will develop a broad long lasting immunity even if they had no symptoms..
Even thought we are atheists you're speaking to the choir.

Even with fewer antibodies they are better than the ones you started with. I had Covid in December and was out of work a month. Later I got 2 shots of Moderna. My corporation paid me for the Moderna. Am I due a booster? Will my corporation pay me again? If they do I will get another shot.
OK, you believe this all came about too quickly and the government is up to something. Maybe my corporation is trying to get rid of me. What if the government is trying to get rid of us? Take off your red hat and put down your phone. Trust science.

"...according to federal data." Can anyone cite a source of this 'federal data'?

@creative51 Thanks you saved me the trouble.
This quote is not linked to Johns Hopkins that I can see. Perhaps you can link some supporting data. "People who have not been fully vaccinated are 6.1 times more likely to test positive for COVID-19 and 11.3 times more likely to die from the virus, according to federal data."
This is what I read. "As the COVID-19 pandemic has swept the globe, more than 4.9 million people have died from the disease worldwide, including over 738,000 Americans, according to real-time data compiled by Johns Hopkins University's Center for Systems Science and Engineering."

@creative51 Can you post a link to the extensive study data from Johns Hopkins? I am not seeing it on their site. [coronavirus.jhu.edu]
