Lots of info on this and none support natural immunity over vaccines, sorry funcouple!

Natural immunity from the coronavirus is fortunately quite strong. A vast majority of people infected produce at least some antibodies and immune cells that can fight off the infection. And the evidence so far suggests that this protection will persist for years, preventing serious illness, if not reinfection. But there is a “massive dynamic range” in that immune response, with a 200-fold difference in antibody levels.
In people who are only mildly ill, the immune protection that can prevent a second infection may wane within a few months. “Those people might benefit more from the vaccine than others would,” said Bill Hanage, an epidemiologist at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The diversity in the immune response from natural infection might be because of differences in the amount of virus to which the person was exposed.
The primary advantage of a vaccine is that it’s predictable and safe, she said. “It’s been optimally tailored to generate an effective immune response.” With a vaccine, everyone gets the same dose. “We know the dose that is being administered, and we know that that dose is effective at eliciting an immune response,” Dr. Gommerman said. “So that becomes a variable that’s taken off the table when you get the vaccine.”

‘Natural Immunity’ From Covid Is Not Safer Than a Vaccine (Published 2020)
What if you’ve already had Covid-19 — do you still need a vaccine? Experts tackle questions about vaccine immunity.

Which produces a stronger immune response: a natural infection or a vaccine?
The short answer: We don’t know. But Covid-19 vaccines have predictably prevented illness, and they are a far safer bet, experts said.The primary advantage of a vaccine is that it’s predictable and safe, she said. “It’s been optimally tailored to generate an effective immune response.” With a vaccine, everyone gets the same dose. “We know the dose that is being administered, and we know that that dose is effective at eliciting an immune response,” Dr. Gommerman said. “So that becomes a variable that’s taken off the table when you get the vaccine.”

Of course you can Einstein, COVID is a Corona virus like other cold viruses.
Pandemics happen and vaccines help
Wah, wah, wah.No...Ed, yourself and others cried to the moderators...Democracy for and by Democrats...on a Interracial sex Forum...The pathetic insecure folks that have an obsession with likes and dislikes and those that moderate the site. Those that try to silence folks for saying whatever they like is why you have crickets now on the Reasonable Political Discussion side of B2W...Case in point...
You agree to follow the rules, then you break the rules, and expect special treatment? Typical.
I'm just glad they started enforcing the rules.
The forum, is not quiet, it's perfectly peaceful now that it's been freed of ignorance.
There are rules here too, watch yourself.
Wow, there is a whole $1.93 bounty out for capturing LameBrain from the "Least Wanted List" and promptly returning him to Mexico. Lol ...

Lmao, "Freedom from Ignorance" ... priceless. Now that is the Democratic rally cry when we take back the House.

These aren’t vaccines and they weren’t properly tested. You are the test
No. It’s called an immune system. Covid isn’t like other viruses. Do you understand what a novel virus is?
Yes. It was a pandemic.
No. It wasn’t. It was all scare tactics over a virus that was completely treatable with inexpensive proven medications
You're the most UNINFORMED person I've ever read regarding the covid-19. You're doing no one a service filling the forum with this factless information. How about READING for a change.
Covid IS a virus.
The word “novel” originated from the Latin word “novus,” which means “new.” In medicine, “novel” usually refers to a virus or bacterial strain that was not previously identified. COVID-19 is a new disease, caused by the novel, or new, coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 that was not previously seen in humans.
The covid virus is NO LONGER NEW, but like many viruses it mutates, changing some of its own identifications. Think of it as a new automobile that has changes from one model year to the next but is still the same car, just different model of that car. Doctors have to stay on top of the mutations or the previous vaccines begin to lose their effectiveness and large numbers of people get sick again. Please QUIT POSTING FALSE INFORMATION, funcouple.
What in the WORLD are you smoking?
The same experts that helped suppress a legitimate scientific opinion because it didn't match there view.Lots of info on this and none support natural immunity over vaccines, sorry funcouple!

Covid IS a virus. Are you calling covid an immune system?
There IS no comparing opinions to facts, you should know that. There's a lot of difference between a scientific OPINION and a scientific FACT ... a lot of difference. The far-right are good at making statements & declarations with no proven FACTS or DATA.
A fact is a statement that can be verified or proven by observation or research1,3,5. An opinion is a belief or judgment that is based on assumptions or personal views1,2,3. A fact is objective and supported by evidence, while an opinion is subjective and not supported by evidence1,3,4,5.
PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE as people tend to take the easiest way OUT of a situation. When you give them OPINIONS as if they were FACTS it endangers the public and creates division.

I tend to think the one suppressing information is not the one with a factual opinion
Where do you get this information? Do you have a SOURCE?
That's a oxymoron ... think about what you're saying. FACTUAL OPINION There is no such thing, it is either a FACT or it is an OPINION, period.
A fact is objective and supported by evidence, while an opinion is subjective and not supported by evidence
It's no wonder MAGA followers remain confused & ignorant.
