"Being vaccinated isn't a perfect defense, but it reduces the risk to you of getting the disease, it drastically reduces the risk to you of dying from the disease or suffering long term life altering consequences from it, and it lowers the risk of you spreading it to others."
The general guidance hasn't changed. The risk to each other has gone up as Delta spreads, because it's more dangerous. There will probably be other dangerous variants given the huge breeding ground for the virus among the unvaccinated and immune compromised.
Get vaccinated, lower your risk, lower the risk to everyone around you and to the general population of the earth. (And it's incredibly harmless).
- joshuahughes 5y ago"it's incredibly harmless" The two healthy middle-aged people I know who have died within 24hrs of vaccination would beg to differ.
- dekhn 5y agoplease stop lying/distorting reality. You have absolutely zero proof that what you observed has to do with the vaccine.
- joshuahughes 5y agoI know it’s comforting to imagine that anyone who says something that you don’t like is just a troll, but I’m not here to lie, distort reality, or say things without proof. Both cases were clearly proven, but what does that matter when you obviously know the situation of my friends better than me…
- didjathinkmess 5y agoAnd then over 10000 deaths within days of the vaccine in the US alone? (CDC's own data) Those must be coincidence as well. Using that logic, there's only a few hundred COVID deaths then. Everyone else died with COVID, not because of COVID.

But you can't see these people, and say that the vaccine is "incredibly harmless"... How these people are being neglected is absolutely disgusting. I have submitted this link here and it was promptly flagged, where have written why I think that these people deserve to be thanked https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27941820 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27941820 https://www.c19vaxreactions.com/uploads/1/3/7/7/137732232/letter_initials_2.pdf https://www.c19vaxreactions.com/uploads/1/3/7/7/137732232/le...
