Yeah what a shame. I never claimed that it didn't lower the chances of side effects.

This is what was claimed.

"You become a dead end to the virus." — Fauci, 2021

This was the reality

"[Vaccines against respiratory viruses produce] decidedly suboptimal protection." — Fauci, Cell Host & Microbe journal article, 2023

"The durability of protection against infection and hence transmission was relatively limited." — Fauci, 2024 congressional testimony

Anybody that questioned the religious dogma that the vaccines were super effective and that healthy people needed to get endless boosters were crucified and in many cases, fired from their jobs for refusing an unnecessary medical procedure.

I don't live in the USA, so whatever was claimed is not universal.

I would've been ok with not forcing healthy people to get vaccinated, if they agreed to not seek treatment in case they got Covid.

There are so many things that went wrong during the pandemic. You were not lied to, that means someone has intent.

The lesson was not that vaccines are bad imho. I do not live in the US, so I just find it tiresome to listen to you guys blaming everything on people. There was no right way.
