  It will never be enough for these guys. In 6 months they'll be in the comments on the next article about covid railing against the vaccine again. It's never enough with these guys, because it's not about being right or wrong, it's about having their feelings validated. They feel like the vaccine was bad, facts be damned.

"yes" ... Australian studies show a protective effect (in that the fewer people that got COVID (correlated with vaccines) the fewer got Long COVID) See Page 8: https://www.aihw.gov.au/getmedia/9592f439-9b96-4589-a55d-6b04e262e5e1/aihw-phe-318.pdf.aspx https://www.aihw.gov.au/getmedia/9592f439-9b96-4589-a55d-6b0... (2022) Australian studies in W.Australia also show: In multivariable analyses, pre-existing health conditions at the time of initial SARS-CoV-2 infection and reporting fatigue, shortness of breath, and cough 3 months post-infection were independent predictors of persistent long COVID. Age, sex, and number of COVID vaccinations were not significantly associated with persistent long COVID. which needs to be qualified with an "of course" as W.Australia (3xsize of Texas, small population) was isolated from the world and then almost the entire state got two to three rounds of vaccination at much the same time: * https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/epidemiology-and-infection/article/factors-associated-with-persistence-or-recovery-from-long-covid-6-months-postsarscov2-infection/FCCC46404097E5470DCD72D10107A29B https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/epidemiology-and-inf...
