Man, I got to chill for a minute. Shit like this is getting me pissed. :angry: We getting to that point. A 5th shot might be even less effective agains the next one, but we ain't encouraged to do other mitigation. Stay safe out here.

From the capitulation write up:

Second, it is about the reduction in vaccine effectiveness that we are now encountering. Obviously, a breakdown of protection from transmission occurred with Omicron with “breakthroughs” in people with vaccination occurring quite commonly. That, and reinfections, were an unusual phenomenon (~1%) before Omicron. Now we are seeing people with 4 shots who are getting breakthrough infections, even at 1-2 weeks from their most recent shot, when there should be the maximal level of neutralizing antibodies induced. That’s not a good sign, relative to the 95% vaccine effectiveness we had against symptomatic infections against the ancestral, D614G, Alpha, and Delta (with a booster) strains.

But it’s worse than that. Because we have relied (and taken for granted) on vaccines to protect us from severe disease—to prevent hospitalizations and deaths. Prior to Omicron we could, with a booster, assume there was well over 90-95% vaccine effectiveness vs severe disease. It is clear, however, from multiple reports, including the UK Health Security Agency and Kaiser Permanente that this level of protection has declined to approximately 80%, particularly taking account the more rapid waning than previously seen. That represents a substantial drop-off: instead of a gap or “leak” of 5%, it is about 4-fold at 20%. And we don’t yet know how well vaccines are still holding up with the BA.2.12.2 and BA.4/BA.5 variants. Likely similar to BA.1 and BA.2 because we haven’t seen substantial increases in hospitalizations, but no data are yet available and it’s still early. Certainly those without vaccination, relying on infection-acquired immunity, and at advanced age, are at considerable risk for the Omicron subvariants because their prior exposure only led to narrow (BA.1) protection.

Bro, this country is finished. Half the mothafukkas here are rooting for the virus because they think it helps them politically.

Who are the last fucking time these shots wasn’t going to stop you from getting the virus…. For most people these vaccines would stop a super severe symptoms or dying….I’ve been saying this for the last year to you knuckleheads. And furthermore, if you have a pre-existing condition which is most of Americans you guys are just almost screwed.
Jesus fucking christ with you. You can't be this slow. You have to be fucking putting on an act or trolling. No way you actually care for yourself as an adult with your simplistic views and inability to process information. :smh:

I got receipts all over this thread talking about how the EFFECTIVENESS of these vaccines isn't what it was. Shit backed by RESEARCH and other countries moving boosters to 3 fucking months(U.S. only to 5) during the height of Omnicron. Unlike you, I don't have a political agenda. I'm just in it for facts.

Effectiveness of the vaccines means preventing SYMPTOMATIC infections, HOSPITALIZATIONS, and DEATHS. Having a fucking increase in breakthrough infections 2 weeks after the 4th shot when PEAK immunity is supposed to be present is fucking bad.

And cut the shit, the 'stop super severe symptoms and dying' narrative didn't come out until well after your man tried to declare victory last May and had people take off the masks and go around other people like shit was sweet. Scientists told them not to do that shit, but political science is undefeated out here.

And a symptomatic infection that doesn't require hospitalization can still knock someone on their ass for a week or 2. We coming up on an official recession where people will be forced to work which will turn a non-hospitalization scenario into a hospitalization one with the quickness. But hey, get back to our great downtowns(implying telecommuting must be discouraged). Your man said that, not the mean twitter man.

As for pre-existing conditions, I mentioned in April of 2020(in this thread) this would be a perfect time to focus on fitness and folks losing weight since early reports(which were later confirmed) said people overweight/obese were at high-risk of complications. Now here we are with vaccines becoming not as effective, people fat as ever, and 3 months boosters never happening in the U.S. while deemed unsustainable everywhere else. :smh:

This is what happens when Biden frightened the world into believing that vaccinating young healthy people and telling them to wear masks would stop Covid.

It was always a lie, and science has proven it. But he pushed the BS for so long that people are still believing it.

The things you need to know about Covid is that for young healthy people, the Pfizer vaccine offers ZERO protection against death. The lasted study, from Denmark showed that it gave you a marginal INCREASE in death. The science is clear, and Biden and Fauci both know it, that’s why they aren’t mandating vaccines or boosters anymore for healthy people.

What can you do to prevent getting Covid - nothing. Masks don’t work unless you wear them 24/7 (can’t even take it off for eating, showering etc.)

Your best bet is to increase your health. Lose weight, take care of any diabetes or health condition, and if you’re Black get plenty of sunlight.

If you do get Covid, and you’re health is compromised, get monoclonal antibodies immediately. Also if you can get ivermectin, take it. Don’t listen to the BS you heard in the media, a study in Brazil which followed nearly 20 million people showed it worked. Besides, it’s what saved that fat unhealthy fuck Trump (who was unvaccinated at the time).

Of course, there’s plenty in here that are unaware or unwilling to read the studies I mentioned above. To those people, continue getting boosted, and make as any memes as you want. In one year, when what I’m saying here is common knowledge, don’t pretend that “no one told you.”
