I'm getting my third shot Saturday. I've become somewhat pessimistic. I think there's a fair chance many of us are asystematic carriers and don't know it yet. | |||

https://www.npr.org/2021/11/28...s-are-rising-quickly Like variations on the trolley problem, this isn't fundamentally different than the issue of ICU bed allocation, which I raised a while ago. I recall several people here disagreeing with my views. My views have not changed.[/QUOTE] The same issue I discussed (and agree with you on). Triaging on the basis of probabilistic outcomes is always a nightmare situation. When the endangered person had a distinct choice about protective measures (and refused), though, to me it does tilt the scales quite a bit. **** Sorry, got a bit bolluxed up on quotations...

I tend to agree but apparently there is debate about whether vaccines will be a panacea with many thinking naturally aquired immunity is superior. | |||

Antibody response to vaccine blows natural immunity out of the water. But it's more complicated than that: https://www.rockefeller.edu/ne...dy-responses-emerge/ From what I understand, you're most protected if you have been both vaccinated and had the virus. And managed to survive the virus.

It's been hard to find breakthrough data. Some states are tracking it (NY seems to be doing a great job). Most others, not so much. There's a company called Truveta that's doing some interesting analysis of real medical data with respect to COVID. From their recent (beginning of November) findings about breakthrough cases in 1.7 million vaccinated individuals. Obviously everyone is lumped in here, so we don't know (and probably can't) who was taking super precautions and who had gone back to living life as normal.
https://www.healthcareitnews.c...ays-new-truveta-data edit: Here's the whole report from Truveta: https://www.truveta.com/the-fi...a-platform-covid-19/ Their numbers are actually not that far off from what NY is seeing. https://coronavirus.health.ny....19-breakthrough-data The probability that you'll get a breakthrough case is way lower than I expected it might be.
