Thalidomide is a drug not a vaccine. Lead used to be considered safe. What’s the point here?

What's the point here? Don't you know? Does it matter if we're talking about a drug or a vaccine? It's still medicine.
No, no, no. You claimed people who previously had Covid definitely need the vaccine. Where is your data in support of that claim? Remember the rules here.
I’ll ask again: What percentage of people currently hospitalized with Covid are second-time or third-time Covid patients?
The point is medicine is not binary. Because something wasn’t safe in the past doesn’t mean medicine shouldn’t press forward. If your world view is:”There were things that were unsafe in the past therefore I don’t trust anything new to be safe” you have to do what’s right for you. But personally I would want to be vaccinated than risk being a stat.
Reduced Risk of Reinfection with SARS-CoV-2 After COVID-19...
This report describes COVID-19 reinfection among vaccinated and unvaccinated persons in Kentucky.
www.cdc.gov
You asked, you provide a citation,
“This study found that among Kentucky residents who were previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 in 2020, those who were unvaccinated against COVID-19 had significantly higher likelihood of reinfection during May and June 2021. This finding supports the CDC recommendation that all eligible persons be offered COVID-19 vaccination, regardless of previous SARS-CoV-2 infection status.”
“These findings suggest that among persons with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, full vaccination provides additional protection against reinfection. Among previously infected Kentucky residents, those who were not vaccinated were more than twice as likely to be reinfected compared with those with full vaccination. All eligible persons should be offered vaccination, including those with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, to reduce their risk for future infection.”

I asked for current hospitalization numbers. This is a five-month-old study when people were freshly vaccinated. Tells us nothing.
yes. people who previously had covid definitely need the vaccine in order to lower the transmission of covid in their communities.
it has nothing to do with the percentage of people currently hospitalized who are second or third time covid patients
you are asking for information that is irrelevant
that's because any "natural immunity" or amount of protection you get from contracting and surviving covid is not the same as vaccination
As you see on this page and the last, we’re not even allowed to talk about it. It’s a taboo subject.
no one here made any claim about how many currently hospitalized covid patients are being hospitalized for the second or third time. that is your own new obsession so if you want to find that out then look it up
Citation was provided as to why the vaccine is needed. Do as you see fit.
My world view is that if somebody comes with something, tells me it's the second coming of Christ but gives me no warranty, I say no thanks and see you later. You clearly don't understand the point here or worse you don't want to. But go ahead, mate. How many times before Covid have you taken en experimental drug? Why didn't you participate in studies and clinical trials for promising medicine before? Is there a difference between if you decide to do that, or if somebody tell you to do that?
that's fine. but if you are unwilling to be vaccinated you should stay in your home since you are a much higher risk to every person that you come in to contact with than those have decided to be vaccinated
The vaccine is approved by the FDA. It’s not experimental. And if I had a condition, such as Parkinson’s that could be improved with an experimental drug, I would be first in line.
I don’t know what warranty you require with drugs? The ability to sue? I personally don’t care if you take the vaccine or not, you are a risk to yourself and people around you….unless you are a hermit.
If it’s not experimental, why do the manufacturers need blanket immunity? Makes no sense.
Because someone who claimed the vaccinations gave them a runny nose, could sue? And these frivolous cases could clog up the court system. And avoids class action lawsuits that would result over things big and small. It was a great move to grant pharma immunity (pun intended).
Kindly support that assertion.
Aside from some EU and Israeli studies, I am finding pretty much nada on the true effect regarding natural immunity and COVID survivors. Matter of fact, the studies outside the US that have been done show results in direct opposition to the CDC assumptions.
Only one manufacturer got approval for a specific age range. The rest are experimental
