Wow, no mention of long covid in the entire article. People are making a lot of assumptions about a disease with billions of people naive to it (the unvaccinated) and selective pressure from the vaccinated. I think we could all benefit from some humility.

There are still no data to prove how well the vaccines prevent long COVID, but experts generally agree that a vaccinated immune system is better prepared to fight off the virus without doing collateral damage."
- ianai 5y agoI did miss that. I still think humility and caution are warranted. The preliminary numbers for long covid in breakthrough infections were similar to the unvaccinated in the Israel report, for instance.
