Even if they were not vaccinated for a while, there’s always a percentage of immunity.
Sorry, but I’m not up to the fearmongering campaigns once again. The first response to Covid was totally out of measure in my opinion and they’re retrying it again.
The first response to Covid was totally out of measure in my opinion
Inconveniencing boomers consuming their sit-in restaurant treats until they started blockading hospitals and breaking into government buildings until those inconveniences were rolled back was “out of measure?”
Death is not the only negative outcome from Covid infection. When you consider the literature on Covid causing grey matter loss, prion disease, chronic vasculitis, cardiac disease, autoimmune disease, etc, you could argue death is actually one of the preferred outcomes.
Immunity isn’t an on/off switch and the virus is mutating to escape immune detection. It seems like you do not have a solid grasp on the kinetics of vaccine and viral immunity, is there a question I can answer for you or would you like some resources that might help improve your comprehension?
I’m extra freaked that now Covid is endemic in the deer populations because Cervid Wasting Disease is also endemic and I’m afraid they will interact somehow…
Chicken pox? Pretty much one and done. COVID? Falls off rapidly after 3 months, whether you catch it or get the vaccine
Plus, every mutation is a dice roll on how much existing immunity will apply. It could be exactly the same as the last strain, or the old immunity might not help at all
covid exposure exacerbates my disability. my immune system freaks out and gives me months of debilitating migraines - it’s had me more or less stuck in bed for 6 months at this point. another exposure would cost me my wfh job. and that’s without infection - just exposure. pretending covid is over throws people like me under the bus.
Why are we still talking about Covid? Shouldn’t we all have a good deal of immunity against it?
We dont have immunity, that’s the point. read the article.
With so much vaccination, how does people don’t have immunity yet?
Even if they were not vaccinated for a while, there’s always a percentage of immunity. The virus itself is not that deadly as well.
Did you read the article?
I did, hence i said:

I haven’t been around Lemmy for a few weeks and today is my first time seeing anyone from the Hexbear instance. I like you people.

Jesus. Please tell me that’s an extremely rare result. Because that is genuinely fucking terrifying.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10047479/#:~:text=Current work suggests that there,prion disease%2C i.e.%2C neurodegeneration.
Yeah it’s fully terrifying.

Welp, guess masks are forever now between wildfire smoke and spontaneous prion generation risk. Jfc
Jesus fuck. : |
I could have gone the rest of my life without knowing that.
If you really want to scare yourself go read about FIP, which is what happens to cats when they get repeatedly infected with coronavirus.
Doing nothing was too much for you?
Bruh.
The curse of successful mitigation is skeptics will then say afterwards that ‘X was no big deal, look how few people died’
Don’t be one of those.

We all knew you had already drawn your conclusion that this was “fearmongering” before seeing any facts.
No one is going to logic you out of a position you didn’t use logic to get into in the first place.
I know a 25 year old who had a stroke last month because of covid complications. Sure, not deadly but… I don’t want to have a stroke either
Because immunity varies by disease.

You could try reading the article instead of spouting nonsense.

It isn’t as bad as 2020, but it isn’t as harmless as the flu. There are still going to be public health concerns.
also the flu is absolutely not harmless, we are extremely lucky that it’s seasonal (unlike covid)
[note: this is not me saying covid is not harmless, it is extremely harmful]

You seem anti-capitalist. Yet hear you are repeating far-right talking points.

I think because you seem to be agreeing with the poster who is against masking? But I’m not sure because his post is removed now.
When you said
What generates clicks?
I’m just asking because the post you were responding to got removed so I’m missing context

Thanks for the explanation. I responded to you in another comment thread about this stuff so I won’t respond again here.
It’s a symptom that old media is dying fast.
Did you just wake up from a coma?

Exactly. Old media died years ago. Welcome to new media where the news isn’t real and the only thing that matters is clicks
