My aunt died of covid. Luckily she was vaccinated and triple-boostered, or it could have been worse.

Do you not understand how statistics work? She had a lower chance to die, that doesn't mean she's immune.

Yeah cause this type of vaccine doesn't provide immunity and the protection lasts a couple of months at most. Not to mention that repeated doses are started to be weakening the immune system

Wrong, wrong, and wrong. You can't just believe everything you see on the internet.

To be fair I think it was actually right, right, and wrong.

There was a recent paper published in Nature that shows this. Only observed in people who had breakthrough infections though

The vaccine doesn't provide immunity. It doesn't prevent transmission, just lowers it. This is well known. It may lower sickness severity in older population. It also only lasts 2-3 months.

Of course. I believe the Science.

Doesn't sound like you do if I'm being honest with you. Sounds like you believe the science that agrees with you.

I am a true believer in the Science.

Are you questioning my faith?

The Science Pope doesn't like to hear such heresy. Better watch out or else he'll sic the Science Inquisition on yo' aess!
