Not if they are 20 or already had covid.
- JumpCrisscross 5y ago> Not if they are 20 or already had covid We have inconclusive data on the protection past infection affords with respect to the Delta variant. We have decent data showing the mRNA vaccines work. We also have inconclusive but pointed data about the Delta variant being more problematic for younger people [1].

- AndrewBissell 5y agoAt this point when I see "comprehensive data is lacking" in some NYT article hyping the Covid threat I just close the tab. About a week ago they were trying to say children were dying in droves from the Delta wave in Indonesia based entirely on the testimony of one doctor who was probably confusing TB for Covid. Two weeks ago they were saying the J&J vaccine was useless against Delta based on a dodgy study that contradicted all sorts of real-world observations, like J&J's effectiveness against the South African variant.
- logicchains 5y agoWe have data from Israel that with respect to Delta, "Israelis who were vaccinated were 6.72 times more likely to get infected after the shot than after natural infection": https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/309762 https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/309762
