Yeah. I don’t get the parents point either. The vaccine doesn’t prevent catching COVID like the measles shot does, it only reduces symptoms.

Almost everyone who’s been vaccinated has ALSO caught COVID. So those of us with the vaccine have to worry about the long-term risks of both the mRNA vaccine, in addition to the long-term risks of the disease. Those who skipped the vaccine only have the theoretical long term risk from COVID to worry about.




> Those who skipped the vaccine and had only had a mild case

What about the ones that died lol?

Not everyone who gets measels gets SSPE. Not everyone who gets EBV gets MS.

We know vaccination made COVID less dangerous. Maybe those with no immunity when they caught it will all die of cancer in 5 years time?

No one knows what will happen in the future. We just have to pick out poison (where we are lucky enough to have a choice).
