    Your argument is based on Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc: After an event therefore because of an event. It’s a logical fallacy specifically designed for warning people that just because Event A happens and is directly followed by Event B doesn’t mean Event A caused Event B.

    Dunno why we’re explaining this though, if there was any propensity for scientific thought present here we wouldn’t be having the argument in the first place.

      You try hard to give vaccine 100% success. Even Pfizer doesn’t dare to do it.

      Indeed, fortunately, FDA has been forced to release the Pfizer &co clinical data in 8 months and not 75years (yeah yeah, limited resource )as they asked. Wait & see.

      Question: Vaccine does not prevent transmission and illness or even dead? Do you agree ? Are you still OK to sanction non-vaccinated and sane person AND even make them go bankrupt, jail or even die (not from covid)?

        Vaccine limits transmissibility of the virus by reducing viral load; imagine being so ignorant you think that a vaccine is a 100% catch all. The Non-vaccinated should get a UBI like everyone else should, they should also be staying home to reduce risk to themselves and others (limiting exposure to a virus is just a good idea in general: the vaccinated should do it to). The fact that capitalism doesn’t let them stay home and wallow in their own ignorance is not my problem. I never called for the sanctioning or removal of the unvaccinated from society.

          I agree. That was very ignorant of the director of the CDC and US Pres Biden to say it prevents infection to justify the initial push for mandates.
