Don't post things that are categorically untrue.
Covid infection does not provide immunity. There is absolutely zero evidence that it does, and plenty of evidence to prove that reinfection happens.
- walterbell 5y agoThe latest UK medical data for the week of 7th Oct reports possible reinfection on page 18 as less than one percent of 5.9 million, https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1023910/Weekly_Flu_and_COVID-19_report_w40_v2.pdf#page18 https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/.... That's the upper end of the estimate. The strictest, provable numbers for reinfection, based on genetic sequencing, are under 300 cases = 0.005%. Intramuscular vaccines are explicitly stated by the CDC and manufacturers as not providing sterilizing immunity. They only provide protection via serum/blood antibodies, against serious illness. Recovery from Covid infection (of vax or unvax) provides nasal/mucosal immunity that can stop future infections in the upper respiratory tract. Future nasal vaccines may provide sterilizing immunity, but injections into the deltoid muscle do not. Other data sources on reinfection would be appreciated.
