I feel for the people that had covid and now they are being lumped in with the unvaccinated if they choose not to get the shot on top of that.

  I've seen this objection a few times and I'm really not sure why anyone that had COVID would be all that fussed about getting the shot. We don't know how long antibodies from having already contracted it last for, so why not get the vaccine?

    "we dont know how long antibodies from having already contracted it lasts for" 1) You could say the same for the vaccine. We dont know. 2) Almost certainly no shorter than getting the vaccine. Both trigger roughly the same immune response and building of antibodies.

    If you've had COVID you are more likely to have an adverse reaction to the vaccine, it's just how the immune system reactions. If I knew I'd have 2 bad sick days to take 2 doses of a vaccine that I have already beaten.. meh.

      > If you've had COVID you are more likely to have an adverse reaction to the vaccine, it's just how the immune system reactions Can you point to anything that backs up that claim?

        Every single person I know who has had COVID had a bad reaction (I think I misused "adverse" there, apologies) and this seems to be the commonly accepted pattern. Regardless of whether or not it's true that's the perception.
