I'm hearing a lot of people say that even if you get the vaccine, you can still get covid. Is that true?

95% effective does not mean 100% effective.

If you're vaccinated, it's rare to get it. If you get it, it's likely to be mild or completely asymptomatic. Basically no one who's been vaccinated has died.

    More than 99% of people who die from COVID are unvaccinated.

  > Basically no one who's been vaccinated has died. Somebody dying 15 minutes after receiving the so-called vaccine is quite a coincidence. The problem is twofold. Anybody who died while having Covid was diagnosed as a Covid death, even if they already had terminal cancer or was involved with a fatal accident. Anybody who died after receiving a covid vaccine is treated as if the vaccine had no effect on their health. There needs to be a transparent audit on how these number came about. Autopsies need to be released as well. The opponents of the vaccines see glaring contradictions & obvious manipulation of the data. https://www.bitchute.com/video/MLl3YTV70iYC/ https://www.bitchute.com/video/MLl3YTV70iYC/ The other major issue is that vaccine manufacturers & pushers are exempt from legal liability. They could introduce a genocidal poison & no court of law would be able to touch them.

That's true for every vaccine against any disease. There is always a chance that the vaccine could fail or wear off for a variety of reasons. Historically this usually happens at a very low rate, but occasionally the probability of failure becomes large enough to recommend booster shots. A major source of problems in vaccine-relate discussions is using binary language. Immunity is not a binary true/false state! Vaccines do not change a Boolean state, they greatly reduce the probability of getting the disease.

yes, I got the vaccine and then COVID afterwards. Outside of losing taste and smell for ~3 days, it was completely asymptomatic though

Yes, people who get the vaccine can get covid, but the illness is heavily mitigated and death rate is reduced to almost zero. Anecdotally (and I'm not a doctor) it seems that with the vaccine, immune system reacts to the initial infection in your nose and prevents it from spreading to your lungs and blood vessels (which causes a lot of damage there e.g. for some relatives who got covid last year), but you still may get some local symptoms around nose and (AFAIK) can infect others because of that.
