 @453ca0c7 @30ce86c6 When we were babies, we got vaccinated against diptheria, whooping cough and tetanus.  A bit older, polio and measles.  Anybody complaining about covid vaccines - like being a 'pure blood' for not having had a covid shot - is just being silly.  j

And, as an #ActuallyAutistic person, I have to say - they don't cause it.  200 genes say it's not caused by the jab. 
 @fb6393a7 @453ca0c7 @30ce86c6 100% agree.

But: Polio vaccine removed polio from the developed world. 

Covid vaccines are "better than nothing". 

I caught Covid twice, each time < 5 months after the last shot. Caring for a sick child is just too much virus load. And I retained permanent damage from the first infection, so it does only statistically protect you from bad outcomes.

Yes, everyone ought to get their shots. But it's not the 10-years-full-immunity vaccine we hoped for. 

Mask up! 
 @925dd857 many vaccines require regular boosters - I get mine on the recommended schedule
