Even if they were not vaccinated for a while, there’s always a percentage of immunity.
Sorry, but I’m not up to the fearmongering campaigns once again. The first response to Covid was totally out of measure in my opinion and they’re retrying it again.
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?
I’m extra freaked that now Covid is in endemic the deer populations because Cervid Wasting Disease is also endemic and I’m afraid they will interact somehow…
I blame the combination of how over-hyped the (real) issue of Y2K was combined with how successfully we handled it (partly because everyone was so worked up about it) leading to the (common issue for IT professionals) take away of “well nothing went wrong, why did we put all that effort into trying to stop something going wrong?” for no small part of why people weren’t as willing to try to stop/minimise Covid as they otherwise might have been (of course it was always going to be a harder sell as Y2K mostly required from the general public that they don’t have a tantrum about organisations paying professionals to fix the problem directly whereas Covid required the general public to follow the advice of the professionals in taking action in their own lives.)
Did you read the article?
I did, hence i said:

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.

Jesus. Please tell me that’s an extremely rare result. Because that is genuinely fucking terrifying.

Yeah it’s fully terrifying.

Welp, guess masks are forever now between wildfire smoke and spontaneous prion generation risk. Jfc
What’s really cool is that prion disease incubation period can be years 🙃
this is fucking terrifying
Ah fuck haha lol ;_;

Jesus fuck. : |
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.

What? 7 million people died from COVID-19. How many more would it have been without all the safety measures?

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.
