Thanks for stepping in, but I'm actually saying it's risk-free and I'm not going to back down from that because the research concludes the same thing, backing it up all the way. I'm not going to pretend that this is any way controversial except for the people who want to try to make it controversial. The vaccines are risk-free, which is synonymous with "safe". And among the reasons why they're safe is exactly because we're willing to take them off the shelf whenever there's even the slightest sign (which so far has always been a false alarm) of a possible risk.
The real risk is staying unvaccinated.

The order has been imposed in 11 provinces – including Beijing – after more than 120 COVID cases were reported in the last week.
Apartment blocks with active COVID clusters have been put into strict 21 day lockdowns.
At least one person has been arrested after refusing to scan a heath QR code.
Well its not 100%, and they have 120 cases in a country of over a billion. I don't think you are making the point you think you are. They’re covid-zero so will lockdown at the drop of a hat, where I am we have locked down twice over one case.I’m questioning at what level of vaccination is locking down over a handful of cases no longer justifiable (If it ever was in the first place).Chill out.

I'm just wondering if you're still claiming that myocarditis from the vaccine is completely harmless? Why say risk free instead of low risk?

The overlap in confidence intervals meant there “was no evidence” that full vaccination was any more effective in preventing Covid-19 than previous natural infection, the researchers concluded.
The study, which has not been peer reviewed, found previous infection was similarly effective at preventing symptomatic Covid-19, but did not delve into the differences between natural infection and vaccines in staving off severe disease.

That article doesn't say that previously infected individuals shouldn't additionally be vaccinated lol. There's literally no good reason not to. Having natural immunity + vaccinated immunity is obviously better than just having natural immunity.

The long term risks of vaccines are completely unknown. And the only argument against that is that it's the same with covid. But if you already had covid that doesn't matter anymore.

Regarding your second point, if we take fully vaccinated as the standard, then based off the data you linked, I understand your frustration regarding restrictions for previously infected people. One issue I see with giving full access to people with prior infection is on the "messaging side". Perhaps some people (who have not yet been infected nor vaccinated) may be brain dead enough to not get vaccinated with the thought that "oh well if I get COVID I can just do everything afterwards". From a pure data point of view though, it certainly seems unfair.
Regarding your first point, at least what I understood, is that prior infection + vaccine is better than just vaccine or just prior infection. At least at the "immune response level" (see below). In this case, I think there is certainly merit in getting vaccinated after infection. The caveat (for me), is that I'm not sure how the immune response correlates to the "society level" (i.e., infections rates, hospitalisation rates, etc.). If anyone knows about data regarding this I would be interested. That said, I think it's prudent to recommend vaccination (one dose) after infection and monitor the situation. If in say 6 months the data shows it doesn't matter, then reassess recommending the dose after infection.
For example:
On October 20 2021 02:45 JimmiC wrote:More studies coming out on getting vaccinated after having Covid. From the data it looks like it makes a big difference and should be taken 3-6 months after infection. However, it appears the second dose is unnecessary. https://ca.yahoo.com/news/natural-immunity-good-getting-vaccinated-093009241.htmlThe exact recommendations after each study seem to change a bit but overall the message consistently has been, get vaccinated, its better.

Hm.

I thought there was no point in studying long term effects of the vaccine, since it disappears in a couple of weeks top from your body. When you compare it to a drug that an individual might take over a few years, you can understand why all those worries about the long term effects of the vaccine are useless.

During this time, people who had previously recovered from Covid-19 were about 71% less likely to contract it a second time, the analysis found.
This represents about the same level of protection the study found was offered by two doses of the vaccines made by Pfizer and AstraZeneca, which have been prominently used in Europe’s inoculation drive.
Two doses of the Pfizer vaccine reduced the risk of contracting Covid-19 by around 73% compared to 62% for AstraZeneca’s vaccine.
The overlap in confidence intervals meant there “was no evidence” that full vaccination was any more effective in preventing Covid-19 than previous natural infection, the researchers concluded.
The study, which has not been peer reviewed, found previous infection was similarly effective at preventing symptomatic Covid-19, but did not delve into the differences between natural infection and vaccines in staving off severe disease.
he can take his vaccine and shove it; i will never be ok with vaccinating previously infected individuals nor ok with discriminatory, brain dead restrictions for previously infected individuals. That article doesn't say that previously infected individuals shouldn't additionally be vaccinated lol. There's literally no good reason not to. Having natural immunity + vaccinated immunity is obviously better than just having natural immunity. The long term risks of vaccines are completely unknown. And the only argument against that is that it's the same with covid. But if you already had covid that doesn't matter anymore. Also short term risks arent 0 either
For me personally, I rather have longterm effects of the vaccination than beeing short term dead or close to it

Yea seriously, crossing the street in front of your house is more dangerous than the damn vaccination yet people still use the 'NOT TOTALLY RISK FREE' bullshit to avoid the syringe. It's so frustrating.

On top of that why would anyone think, given how much worse covid is, that the unknown risk from it woukd not be worse?
Did you not fully read my post? I'm talking about people who already had covid.
