Who hurt you? Listen, if you're hell bent on willfully increasing your risk of death/hospitalization, that's on you. The simple fact is being vaccinated drastically reduces the risk of that. Does the current vaccine work as well against Omicron as it did against prior variants? No. But does it work better than literally doing nothing? Yes. And yes, you were unlucky. The vaccines are still 70+% effective at preventing breakthrough infections based on the data we currently have. The vaccine is not ineffective. And it reduces the severity of the infection even in the case of a breakthrough. And as far as OP is concerned, there is a high likelihood that their boosted status did protect them from infection.

I am vaccinated and boosted. I MAY not want to get boosted AGAIN because it was extremely painful and made me sick for more than a day. I MAY not want to go through that again while taking into account what is happening in the FUTURE with the variants. but I may not have the right to make my own decision due to mandate fanatics > And yes, you were unlucky. The vaccines are still 70+% effective at preventing breakthrough infections based on the data we currently have. do you even know what that means? what does it mean to be '70% effective'? How long does this effectiveness last? effective against what (covid19, delta, omicron)? Are you talking about vaccinated 1, 2, or booster? I know personally 20 people who have gotten it. 15 vaccinated 5 Unvaccinated. We have been having more than 600k cases per day since the beginning of January. I'm guessing there is A LOT of break through cases in that. > And as far as OP is concerned, there is a high likelihood that their boosted status did protect them from infection. If they were sitting across from me when I was feverish from omi, they would have gotten it. keep in mind, I was infected by someone who was vaccinated.
