Notwithstanding the fact there's some evidence the vaccines don't protect as well against long COVID as previously suggested[1], if this is the case and large numbers of people are eager to boost every 4-6 months out of fear they might get long COVID if they don't, you don't need to remind everyone to "get your booster!"
We should be able to have discussions about the virus and vaccines without gratuitous PSAs.

- GhettoComputers 5y agoSure, feel free to post the hospitalization rates of delta positive non vaccinated people. What is their delta hospital admissions in comparison? Lets compare those rates. Many people who got covid didn't go to the hospital, didn't die and were asymptomatic, so that statistic you posted is mostly noise. Most people who take the vaccine don't want to get covid at all.
