We dont have immunity, that's the point. read the article.
Did you read the article?
Inconveniencing boomers consuming their sit-in restaurant treats until they started blockading hospitals and breaking into government buildings until those inconveniences were rolled back was "out of measure?"
I haven’t been around Lemmy for a few weeks and today is my first time seeing anyone from the Hexbear instance. I like you people.
Death is not the only negative outcome from Covid infection. When you consider the literature on Covid causing grey matter loss, prion disease, chronic vasculitis, cardiac disease, autoimmune disease, etc, you could argue death is actually one of the preferred outcomes.
Immunity isn’t an on/off switch and the virus is mutating to escape immune detection. It seems like you do not have a solid grasp on the kinetics of vaccine and viral immunity, is there a question I can answer for you or would you like some resources that might help improve your comprehension?
Jesus. Please tell me that's an extremely rare result. Because that is genuinely fucking terrifying.

this is fucking terrifying
Ah fuck haha lol ;_;

I could have gone the rest of my life without knowing that.
If you really want to scare yourself go read about FIP, which is what happens to cats when they get repeatedly infected with coronavirus.
Doing nothing was too much for you?
Bruh.
The curse of successful mitigation is skeptics will then say afterwards that 'X was no big deal, look how few people died'
Don't be one of those.
We all knew you had already drawn your conclusion that this was "fearmongering" before seeing any facts.
No one is going to logic you out of a position you didn't use logic to get into in the first place.
