>>13439679>can you guys explain this one to me with science?The argument as far as I know is:
Getting covid to acquire immunity to covid is risky because your body is basically forced to improvise and overcome. Inbetween the time it takes your body to develop antibodies and cure yourself of the virus you may suffer some collateral damage to your lungs, heart, genitals, and even brain. Some people suffer from what's been called "long covid", where they had an extremely violent response that didn't kill them, but left them in the hospital for months.
You also need to remember that these people can still catch covid again. You can catch covid multiple times. Covid antibodies only stick around for around 6, 9, maybe 12 months, so while these people might not have died the first time around; their chances of survival diminish each time.
People who get vaccinated don't have to start from square 1. They can still contract covid, but they'll demonstrate significantly less symptoms, if any, and in doing so will increase their chances of not just survival, but not suffering any long term health risks from the disease.
'Hypothetically' the idea is the vaccine person has no chance of being hospitalized while the unvaccinated person has, say a 10-13% or something, chance of being hospitalized.
