you're trying to establish a communication with an obese villageboy that works in a local pharmacy cleaning tubes, who's immune system barely keeps up with the diet and lifestyle he has, which is why he was amongst first jumping on to a vaccine thinking it will do him good.
type of person to wear a mask while walking outdoor // rolling in his mart cart
last year in january he called mandatory masks and lockdowns a conspiracy theories until they happened. now he's denying he ever doubted them.
no point, for real^^
i wrote a whole paragraph of facts related to covid being overhyped by media causing ppl to panic over nothing, he grabbed onto 1 thing which he pulled out of context and said "i cant answer all you wrote", while he answered nothing^^
Time to start paying fanclub dues.

yeah, i am sure we have had a billion infections easily since the official numbers are nowhere near whats really happening
having your statement in mind makes additional vaccinations just a money grab for big pharma and to get rid of the ridiculous mumber of ordered shots
i hope you are right, because that means game over for panic mongerers
Boosters were always a possibility. It's unlikely we will need 4, 5, 6 shots to maintain immunity though.
If we get rid of most of Covid, but immunity starts waning after 1-2 years without a booster, then we will start seeing spikes in cases again. The biggest concern has been that Covid immunity doesn't last, which isn't unexpected. There's a lot of diseases that you don't keep full immunity to for life.
Panic mongerers were right though. New York had to bus in thousands of extra in medical staff to meet demand, California was actively turning away dieing patients, and hospitals all across the country were calling in backup reserves in the form of people who hadn't done an ER shift in ten years, or hadn't treated an adult patient in years. And this was after massive masking, lockdowns, and social distancing.
Looking in hindsight, there is absolutely no doubt that without lockdowns, distancing, and masking early in the pandemic the entire world's healthcare system would have crashed all at once.
Unfortunately this doesn't really tell us anything we didn't already know. The best way to deal with an easily transmissible virus is to socially distance, do contact tracing, and implement mass testing to quickly identify and isolate infected individuals. The countries that did this didn't have to do nearly as harsh lockdowns. Then, only when it's clear those things aren't possible (such as Trump refusing testing materials and methods, refusing to allocate money to testing and contact tracing, etc.) that you lock down.
There's also a wealth of evidence that lockdowns had a strong impact on mitigating the virus. Dozens and dozens of peer reviewed articles making apples to apples comparisons to similar regions all shows it.
