It's The Atlantic talking about how post-vaccination COVID is a very different disease compared to how it presents in unvaccinated people.

#5And the cherry on top, excess mortality due to heavy-handed mitigations and vaccine-related reactions.
This will never end unless we learn to live with it.

#6By no means am I an expert, but my understanding is that vaccines don’t go far enough. They provide B-Cell immunity, which doesn’t last permanently because newer variants have different antigens. Getting COVID after vaccination seems to be the most robust, because there is both T-Cell and B-Cell activation.

#7Wow, a barely tested technology that hasn't never been successfully used in the last decades it was developed, targeting a new virus isn't living up to its promise, how surprising!
It's time for governments to implement science-based policies, severe links with snake oil vendors and stop discriminating people on the basis of their (un)willingly participation to an ineffective drug trial.

I used to work in immunology - this is not accurate. We know that e.g. mRNA vaccines elicit quite a good T-cell immune response. e.g. for one of many studies looking at T-cell responses to the recent sars-cov-2 vaccines: https://www.cell.com/immunity/fulltext/S1074-7613(21)00308-3

#10I submitted this 21 hours ago, but I'm a member of the shadowbanned HN underclass, so I guess it was hidden from everyone.
