This literally has nothing to do with the facts I posted from the CDC and the point you thought you were making.
I'm done engaging with ignorant science-deniers who believe they are smarter than the experts and who try and twist facts to fit their anti-vax agenda. Who also believe they're never going to get covid.
DONE.
The amount of willful ignorance, misinformation, purposeful DISinformation and anti-vax propaganda in this thread is shameful and should not be allowed to continue.
Again, you know nothing about me. I'm not an anti-vaxxer. I recommended to my mother that she get the vaccine, which she did.
I may not be any expert you listen to but I am an expert in risk-reward assessment. It's what I do for a living for the last almost 30 years. I continuously analyze data and make determinations before literally $100's of millions are allocated and invested. I did the same thing with Covid and in my Mother's situation determined she was better off getting vaccinated.
As for my own risk-return assessment - here's the bottom line;
My odds of reinfection are very low. If in the rare chance I do get reinfected the overwhelming odds are that my symptoms will be of lesser degree.
So my worse case scenario is I get Covid again and instead of a few weeks of no taste or smell, it's a few days.
Now - people have died after taking the vaccine. Percentage wise it's very small but people have died. People are also getting some pretty severe reactions from it.
That means, in my case if I do get the vaccine my worse case scenario is I die from it and for very little benefit.
Why the h*ll
would I get the shot? Seriously.
Now you seem like given the chance would love to strap me down and stick me with the needle without my consent. Frankly it's that kind of mentality that terrifies me much more than Covid.
