If natural immunity is acceptable, what proportion of the unvaccinated-uninfected population will just take the risk? Half? More? That's on them. It's not your job to police their choices, and especially not to impose "pape

You keep claiming that 100M+ people in the US already have "superior" antibodies from a past infection, but you've provided no evidence of this. Yes I did, you must have missed it in the parent comments. https://

Then they should get antibody tests, and if their level of antibodies is high enough, we should let them do all the same things that vaccinated people can do. Nope. The default position is for people to all be able to do everything the sa

It's really hard to take you seriously when you are trying to equate a vaccine passport with locking everyone in monitored, isolated, government-run housing pods. The comparison is the only way to shake awake some people who are too

Not necessarily. Like I said in other posts, wherever vaccination requirements existed we have protocols for sharing proof of antibodies. That's all that needs to happen. If you work in a hospital or want to dorm in a college, go ahead

This is a false dilemma. It is a dishonest position to take. I can only hope you're doing it with well intentions. But the reality of the matter is that 100 million Americans had covid by now, which means they have antibodies that are

Over 100 million Americans have superior antibodies from past covid. Why would you WILLINGLY describe those like that who refuse the vaccination as unhealthy, unclean, and even dangerous? Unless you're naive and don't know history

They would reduce transmission of the virus in the same way that locking everyone in temperature-controlled air-corrected 24/7-monitored government housing pods would reduce the transmission. Maybe those pods are better, because they c
