Sorry, I'm not suggesting that vaccines don't have a positive impact on hospitilzations/deaths for a person who has already had covid, just that its quite marginal, especially for younger populations. I'm reasonably young with young children who already had exposure, it concerned me that the messaging did not seem to be very nuanced regarding the relative risks by age and prior exposure. It very much felt like my children were going to be force vaccinated with a drug that would not benefit them. I do believe if people were not voicing their concerns we would have seen that come to pass. I struggle to see the conspiratorial thinking involved here.
- civilized 5y agoI see what you're saying. My son got the vaccine because he had no prior exposure as far as we know. The other one is too young and my understanding (from NYT) is that the companies are really struggling to show effectiveness below age 5. Personally we experienced little pressure to get our kids vaxxed but I don't know what your experience was like.
