Are unvaccinated individuals the biggest, or even significant, threat to immuno compromised individuals? I think even the common cold is deadly for such unfortunate people.
- Broken_Hippo 6y agoSometimes a cold is so much worse for this group of people, sure. It can be deadly, but just as often (or more) raises the chance of complications. The diseases we tend to vaccinate against aren't the common cold, though. They are worse. So much worse. As in, they can be deadly or create lifelong complications in healthy folks. It can be a quick death sentence for compromised folks - much worse than the common cold.
- yters 6y agoI can agree it is worth vaccinating the population to protect such people.
