    In @julius terms, it was a smarmy response. Personally, I'd prefer pithy. At any rate, I was being utterly facetious.

    They're still required or kids can not attend school.

    True.
    But the other vaccines have proven to be safe & effective.
    These covid vaccines have proven to not be effective. It's still too soon to fully determine how safe they are...
    You are making an apples vs oranges comparison

    That's simply not true.

    That's not true either. Because so many people have gotten the vaccines, we have an enormous amount of safety information. Far, far more than most prescription drugs, in fact.

    More like honeycrisp vs fuji.

    Not sure how that's supposed to be a gotcha. There's no context, but I'm quite sure he wasn't saying 'hey, if you got the flu once, you are immune for life'. Nor was he saying 'it's better to get diseases than get vaccines for them'.

    That is very true for the flu. If you've already gotten the flu and tested for it, you do not need a vaccine that flu season.

    It’s interesting. I just talked to a certified internist and infectious disease specialist. He told me there is no reason for anyone to get a booster. He also said there is more potential for harm than good with boosters and he’s been very frustrated with the messaging being delivered regarding them.

    If the numbers spike in winter and the strains are more deadly and the 2nd booster is approved, I'll probably get one.
