Herd immunity only affects me if I'm vulnerable.Well, you didn't understand how important it is to get vaccinated even if low risk (due to herd immunity).
Herd immunity is the idea that members of the population who are at significant risk if they catch the virus become statistically insulated once a significant fraction of the population has become immune/sterilized. It doesn't mean shit for an individual who is basically immune/insignificant risk anyways.
Everyone else could catch COVID infinitely and pass me COVID infinitely (which is a retarded premise on its own right) and it only starts to affect me when it starts removing conspecifics at a high enough number that either 1) my mate choice becomes limited (or by proxy my offspring/descendants) or 2) the population is bottlenecked enough that deleterious traits start fucking the gene pool and/or inbreeding coefficient rises enough to fuck future generations.
However, COVID doesn't do that. COVID doesn't get remotely close to the level of mortality needed to cause a population bottleneck; so that's all moot shit.
But wait, there's more! Even the vaccines don't actually prevent spread, they merely limit and/or lessen the likelihood. So COVID is still gonna fucking spread even if you make the otherwise non-risk groups take the vax - AND that's not taking into account that you've entered a race with viral evolution and its only a matter of time before some lineage adapts and exploits.
So please, you fucking brain-dead moron, tell me how I'm the one who doesn't know how herd immunity works.
I literally mentioned it in the first post I made in this thread.You also didn't understand what a viral-vector vaccine is.
Again, literally mentioned it in my opening post you disingenuous prick.You also didn't know that there's different types of vaccines, even just for covid.
Not anti-vax, anti-this vax.If a layman like me understands that stuff, a real biologist sure as hell would. And biologists certainly don't spout anti-vax talking points
And I'm not even *against* this vax, I'm against forcing and coercing people to take it if they don't want to.
