    Unless you think death is the only "harm" anyone can suffer, this is - like most things you post - simply factually untrue.

    0.25% of the entire US population is already dead from Covid, so 99.75% is the theoretical best you can get to even if you define "any harm" as "only death" and you assume no one else will die of Covid starting today. If you count hospitalizations or long Covid effects, your 99.XX% is already blown out of the water, even ignoring future infections.

    Do you realize the flaw in this logic?

    Covid may only cause death in 99% of cases but it does harm at a much higher percentage. Many of those who survive covid are left permanently damages. The rate of damage from covid - not just death - is much higher than from the vacinne by the way by orders of magnitude. The long term effects include heart damage, lung damage, and potential neurological damage that remains to be completely understood.

    The real question is for those who think the Vaccine is so bad, why don't you think Covid is worse?

    Not correct if you are a young person.

    So if Joe Biden told you to go and get the vaccine would you be so enthusiastic? Just trying to understand this cult like logic…

    That’s not good news it shows that social media needs to be regulated because foreign governments have manipulated a mass amount of people especially in the US. @Astrodome

    My second dose of Pfizer was in August. I guess I should call my doctor and ask about a booster? Maybe get some antibody testing done instead.

    I’m an Elon and Besos supporter
    And I got Moderna cause I did my own research on what vaccine was best
    Because our dumb government saying ‘the vaccine instead of the vaccines
    They won’t tell you that JNJ is a joke because they paid for JNJ
    It’s like the government saying John wall is as good as Kyrie
    No he’s not

    Rule of thumb is to wait 6 months. But your doctor will know what's best for you.

    If only COVID caused pre-existing conditions then we would have never needed Obama Care.

    As ignorant and foolish I think many Trump supporters are, it's not a good thing that anyone is dying of COVID. Let's not lose our humanity over our political differences here.

    I mean really, you're no different than those wackos who calls Dems, Demoncrats
