On the other hand, I had the wonderful experience of catching the first virus and the delta variant. I should have been more protected than with the vaccine by itself as the data clearly showed at the time but it still hit me, a 34 year old decently fit person, almost equally as hard. I had 2-3 weeks of incredibly high fever along with a bunch of other nasty symptoms.
We’re all different. My retirement age mom has never been vaccinated (even though I wish she would have) and she’s either never caught it, which I doubt, or it was so mild she didn’t realize it.
It was approved for the prevention of Covid (the 'D' stands for disease). It was supposed to prevent you from getting Covid, regardless of severity, and it didn't.
And if we're citing anecdotal evidence. I know of no one who got anything more than flu symptoms, and for most it was mild, regardless of vaccination.
That includes obese diabetic 80s year olds. I know of no one personally who went to the ER except for a vaccinated friend who panicked.
