Something about the term “ novel” continues to elude some people.
More than a year in and endless variants, science continued to learn about COVID- 19.
There is no certainty of the duration of resistance any vaccine provides against COVID and all variants.
There is no certainty of the duration of immunity associated with a prior infection.
That Trump and wife were quietly vaccinated in early January, just 3 months after being infected with COVID, is meaningful.
Say it isn't true. Trump was vaccinated? No way that can be the case. After all his supporters tell us here again and again and again that Covid-19 is an overblown hoax, and that THEY won't ever get the vaccine.
He's paid big bucks to run his goofy a$$ Mouth and people are eating it up.
More chit is known than a year ago.
Does not mean science knows everything about COVID and it variants and durability of immunity/ resistance to infection.
A year ago, Trump told the public we don’t need a vaccine. It would just go away by April. This public statement contradicted what Trump disclosed to Bob Woodward in taped interviews.
There is likely no other public figure more responsible for spreading misinformation about COVID than Trump.
74 year old Trump was infected. Had he been an ordinary guy, no one would have monitored his vitals and oxygen, 24/7. He would not have been admitted to a hospital out of an abundance of caution. Trump’s condition would have been substantially more deteriorated and likely required a vent.
Ordinary guy would not have received a powerful experimental cocktail under the “ compassionate care” umbrella.
When Trump was discharged, he told people to not worry about COVID. Tens of millions listened and ignored CDC recommendation to not gather over the protracted holiday period. No surprise COVID surged and the US crossed the 500,000 fatality mark.
The Trump Admin made sure it and Congress had the opportunity to be vaccinated, regardless of age or health, before healthcare professionals and the most vulnerable populations.
In the meantime, Trump and wife were quietly vaccinated in early January, just 3 months after having been infected.
Can you just once start a thread that has information to back up your opinionated statement? A credible source wouldn't hurt either.
Quote:
The risks of SARS-CoV-2 infection in fully vaccinated people cannot be completely eliminated as long as there is continued community transmission of the virus. Vaccinated people could potentially still get COVID-19 and spread it to others. However, the benefits of relaxing some measures such as quarantine requirements and reducing social isolation may outweigh the residual risk of fully vaccinated people becoming ill with COVID-19 or transmitting the virus to others.
Guidance for fully vaccinated people is available and will continue to be updated as more information becomes available.

At this point it's more helpful to listen to the CDC guidelines than Dr. Fauci. They're an agency, he's one person who seems to have elevated COVID 19 infection exclusively over any other concerns we might have. If our ONE SINGULAR GOAL was to avoid COVID infection, and there were zero other concerns like the economy, our relationships, our mental health, Dr. Fauci would be the one to listen to. The reality is, it's a balancing act, so we need to heed the advice of a more balanced perspective, like the CDC.
