Vaccines don't always work for everyone,but that depends on the vaccine,and the medical status of the patient. A vaccine obviously isn't going to prevent you from becoming infected if you are ALREADY infected,and sometimes you can be infected and not yet realize it.
For a personal example,I would have been a cripple and spending my juvenile years in an iron lung if I hadn't received the Polio vaccine when in the 3rd grade. As it was,I got it just in the nick of time because I was already infected when I received the vaccination,and was bedridden for weeks and it literally took me months to be able to recover to the point where I could even run a little ways,and weeks before I could even walk again.
Yes,this was when the Polio vaccine was new and my parents even had to sign a waiver in order for me to get it.
You haven't experienced horror if you weren't a VERY active small child facing the prospect of being put into an Iron Lung.
Thanks to the vaccine,if there are any iron lungs left today,they are in museums.
We aren't generally talking about the Polio Vacine, which was effective, and dates back to the '50s. There were very real reasons to fear Polio, and one of my earliest memories is standing in line to get the sugar cube version of the vaccine. SV-40 contamination is considered to be a problem, contaminating
some of the vaccines. But even that is less of a threat than polio was--and some of my classmates had had it, though none ended up in an Iron Lung. It worked, and Polio was virtually eliminated. The Smallpox vaccine worked, virtually eliminating the disease that had been the scourge of populations worldwide. Traditional vaccines are many, and most of well proven efficacy. Many objections come from the thimoserol (AKA Merthiolate) used as a preservative, or the squalenes used to boost the immune reaction (a common one was peanut oil, and note that the number of people deathly allergic to peanuts has risen sharply).
No, we are talking about a vaccine that was allegedly to prevent a disease
credited with killing relatively few (as a percentage of the population) compared to Polio. It failed in that prevention, even with boosters, and appears to have caused problems not anticipated, possibly due to contamination, possibly due to the vaccine itself, or a combination of factors. COVID treatments were little better in the Medical Establishment, and we now know that putting patients on a vent, and approved medications were dangerous or even deadly, where treatment protocols denied by the Medical Establishment were often effective, and required very few patients to be hospitalized, unlike the orthodox treatments of the Medical Establishment.
I can't argue with the post that those who received the COVID shots seem to be among the most lively proponents, even though the shots did not prevrnt the disease, nor the transmission thereof in many cases.
I'm in the 'control group' who did not get the shots, so YMMV.
