It’s a choice between getting Covid and getting the vaccine. It’s only a matter of time before one gets Covid if one isn’t vaccinated.
The only caveat is with the delta variant and whatever next even more virulent variant comes along due to the mutations that occur as the virus continues to spread freely (due to lack of vaccines induced herd immunity), vaccinated people may get it without a booster. But So far data shows the breakthroughs are hospitalized at just a fraction of the rate as unvaccinated.
In a world where Covid wasn’t doesn’t exist, of course taking the shot makes no sense. But Covid is like getting all the proteins in the shot, plus thousands of extra ones from the live virus trying to infect all your cells.
If one is hesitant of the vaccine, one should be 1000x scared of Covid. All the concerns I’ve heard people express about the shot are 1000x more applicable to actual Covid. That’s what doesn’t make sense to me about the people concerned about the vaccine, if they evaluated Covid consistently it seems that there would be no question of whether to be vaccinated or not.
I’m legitimately confused why people with concerns about the vaccine don’t have the same concerns about Covid, but instead assume the best about Covid while assuming the worst about vaccines. Why do people do that?
