    Vaccine is 93% effective against alpha variant vs 88% effective against delta variant. Plus if they got the virus before getting vaccinated, then the vaccine wouldn't do anything.

    Don't worry, they're still working on new variants. They'll get the right one eventually.

    So you're now admitting that the vaccine works?

    Vaccine immunity last 3 months. Natural immunity last 8 months. So yes vaccines work, just not as well as your own immune system.

    But doesn't the vaccine induce your immunity system to build up it's defenses? Is that what natural is?
