I tend to consult credible sources of information like the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health rather than people who don't know what a vaccine is.

Quote:Vaccination is the administration of agent-specific, but relatively harmless, antigenic
components that in vaccinated individuals can induce protective immunity against the
corresponding infectious agent. In practice, the terms “vaccination” and “immunization” are
often used interchangeably.

Completely incorrect. Let's check out ocho's link . . .

Quote:Vaccination is likely to substantially reduce virus transmission by reducing the pool of people who become infected, and reducing virus levels in people who get infected.
Quote:Evidence is increasing that, not only do COVID-19 vaccines either stop you getting sick or substantially reduce the severity of your symptoms, they’re also likely to substantially reduce the chance of transmitting the virus to others.
Quote:It found immunisation with either the Pfizer or AstraZeneca vaccine reduced the chance of onward virus transmission by 40-60%. This means that if someone became infected after being vaccinated, they were only around half as likely to pass their infection on to others compared to infected people who weren’t vaccinated.
How do you think chickenpox incidence decreased by 90% after introduction of the vaccine and we achieved herd immunity if vaccines only prevents symptoms?

Three completely false statements in just two sentences. The part about altering your genetics is the stuff of conspiracy theories.

can you give me an example of another bioengineered weapon escaping a lab?
Even the US intelligence community doesn't concur with that unproven hypothesis.
