Very mild symptoms with omnicron.
Too funny hearing today that Marama Davidson could not appear at Chloes press conference today because she is "off" with covid. Wonder how many shots of this "effective" vaccine she has had?
you think a vaccines sole purpose is to prevent you getting ill?
anyway, from what i understand you are actually somewhat correct, the current generation of vaccines is less effective against the current strains of covid... I read/heard somewhere there is a new generation of vaccines in development/testing that should be ready for next winter
Well that's the whole point isn't it?
Smallpox, measles, chickenpox, etc all those vaccines typically prevent you from catching the virus and getting sick.
But with flu and covid which rapidly evolve fast, you can never get ahead with the vaccine, because by the time it's ready, it's already mutated into a new variant.
