To boost or not to boost?

[Two Wings]

The reason for boosters is to maintain a level of antibodies.

how many boosters do you routinely take?

I had a tetanus booster about 6 years ago. That's been IT.

Why expect long term effects from a man made vacvine but not a man made virus?

ah, intentionally accepting the risk verses the chance of "in the wild." The virus exposure is complete ... the cv vax ... not nearly as much.

Surviving Covid is only a 99+% chance ... the spike proteins from the infection last a lot less longer than the cv vaxes ... esp with the 6 month boosters.

I'm pretty sure that's probably not a good condition. I realize you deny the spike proteins being throughout the body's systems/organs ... but even if your denial is accurate and the spike proteins are confined to the injection site, their being there pretty much continuously to keep forcing the cell-mediated response is NOT a wise long term solution.

So will the next virtue signal be "er'body gotta take their shots so we don't have to take 'em ad infinitum?" "you, non-jabber, are the reason I'm on my 8th booster!" (that's me doing like Biden but presuming the cv vaxe'd/CDC promoted outlook)

AH! so "we" was either an error or presumption.

There are several vaccines that require boosters. But with covid the influenza vacvine (due to varients) is probably the most applicable.

The thing is our body is forced to produce antibodies - whether by a man made virus or a vaccine. Both are natural redponces to a unnatural cause.

For most people the survival rate is less than 99%. More importantly is the effects of covid. We do not know all the damage covid does to the body so we shouldn't just focus on death.

completely agree ... but as you've noted from the tails side of the coin ... a greater concern about long term effects of the disease than long term effects of the jab.

I believe it came from the Wuhan lab.

Which makes the US and China liable IMHO.

Among others. The lab is known for coronavirus research and has worked with every nation involved in virology. In the end I'd place blame on China and the WHO.

I’m in reasonably good health, but am 85, so I’ll just take my chances

My whole clan caught it back in December including my Dad who was 95 at the time, and he kinda breezed through it, the fever confused him and messed with his memory for a while.

If you were vaccinated would you get a follow up booster or do you regret getting vaccinated at all or one was enough??

Don't regret getting vaccinated, but question it's effectiveness, since I contracted the virus anyhow.

I won't be getting a booster. At least, not for awhile. By the time I do, some crucial questions may have been answered..
