I know people who got it without the vaccine and have since gotten it multiple times (one up to 4 times!).
Rather than use anecdotes and spread misinformation, we can Google (multiple sources!) and find some studies comparing the outcomes of vaccinated and unvaccinated people.
It has been known for some time that there is slightly weaker long term immunity for 2 shots when compared to getting it without. This gets better 3 shots, and getting 3 shots and having gotten covid is actually the most durable response of all 'options'.
This is silly. Getting two shots was the "most durable" until it wasn't. There's literally no reason to believe that three shots is the holy grail, especially since we're up to four. Or is it five now?
I have had, approximately, 15 flu shots in my life.
Sure, you say, the flu changes constantly.
I think I've had something like 7 or 8 Tdap shots. The vaccine schedule on that is 3 shots two months apart, another shot a year later, then 2-3 years later, then every ~ten years after that.
Why is "You need more than one shot" such a silver bullet argument?
