      Ain’t that a bitch. One virus took his body. Another took his life.

      Both are preventable through safe, effective, and widely available vaccines. Vaccinate yourselves and your children, friends.

        Currently COVID-19 is not preventable through vaccination on its own, especially not at the currently recommended once-per-year schedule, because they don’t last anywhere near that long.

          It is not preventable to get down with it, but the vaccines reduce its effects so much that even people with chronic breathing illnesses or organ transplants can handle it like a moderate flu. Mileage will vary from person to person, of course.

          Your direct point stands, but it is still a huge win for pro-vaccination.

          But the vaccine reduce the risk! That’s the most important part

        The COVID vaccine doesn’t prevent you from getting COVID. It just mitigates the symptoms. You can still get it and spread it.

            If anybody wonders how, it’s because vaccination means the immune system reduces viral load, so you spread much less virus and thus others exposed have a better chance of avoiding infection.

          And what do you think people die from? The symptoms, knucklehead.

              Just tired of the “well, actually…” comments that make no sense.

            I’m aware of that but the comment I replied to says the virus is preventable. You really think I understand how the vaccine works but not what people die from or did you just need to make a degrading comment?
