If you’re vaccinated, your main risk from the Delta variant is long-haul

True. Though this is also the case with influenza and even the common cold rhinoviruses, where the main risk of the infection is not death, except in the extremely immunocompromised and elderly. It's the long-term complications. And those do happen. My own lungs are a bit underperforming, from a serious case of pneumonia from influenza as a young child. I'm not looking forward to the possibility of COVID contributing to the issue, of course. While I've sometimes compared COVID-19 in the vaccinated as somewhat like influenza in its risks, influenza itself is still out there. The last thing humanity needed was an extra one in the mix compounding all our problems. Still, while the error bars and precise risk are still vague with COVID-19, this risk equation itself is an old one, the general one of respiratory contagious illnesses, that we've dealt with for a long time.

Would love to see more mention of naturally acquired antibodies / immunity, else (as in this article) the term "unvaccinated" is overloaded in my opinion. For example, are stats around naturally immunized folks different? I imagine so..

Does every disease, injury, or ailment also have the potential for long term impacts? Are we only talking about it with COVID because of how closely we are examining it at maximal scale?

People have become obsessed with disease and risk. Wonder what caused that ;)
