...The current truth geoff is probably that we don't know and we need to do more studies.
sir nail (whilst i think he should stop posting anecdotal evidence) could say that the pro-vax people are guilty of all the sins of the anti vax people.
Yes, I agree that in real terms it's difficult to predict what's going to happen
with things like long-COVID sufferers, or any side-effects for those vaccinated,
or problems for the unvaccinated if or when far more virulent viral variants
develop through mutation.
I guess at least as someone fully vaccinated, I have the current science on my
side, and after nearly three years I haven't been infected (which is a point Mr
Nail avoids addressing—despite himself falling victim).

We can't deny that it IS possible the vax may sensitize the immune response and then the virus itself may cause a "different " experience.
Agreed.

It seems pretty clear that the risk of hospitalisation is less but what about other things?
The chances of being in an ICU bed in any given week if you're unvaccinated
is 60 per 1 million people, compared with 8 per 1 million people who've had
two or more doses of a vaccine.
