How many of those do you recon had already been exposed before vaccine availability?

These people were putting their neck out almost a full year before the first shot was administeres. Chances are, many of them already acquired immunity via this route.

I wish people did not disregard natural immunity. There are quite many who do. Anyways... for how long does natural immunity last?

[jjeaff]

I don't think we know yet with much certainty. But I'll tell you this, it's a lot easier to get a vaccine booster than a natural immunity booster.

Not to mention, the body of evidence that point to the vaccines providing super-human immunity (i.e. better than natural) continues to grow.

Much of the original "natural immunity is the best" idea came from a single Israeli study.

So by this logic, would you let "front line workers" that aren't vaccinated off the hook as well, seeing that they were probably "exposed before vaccine availability" and "Chances are, many of them already acquired immunity via this route"?

That makes sense?
