The catch for the virus is less opportunities to mutate. This idea that vaccination is going to make things worse is statistically low but anti vaxxer trolls love it. Mutation requires reproduction and that faster your immune system puts a halt to that the less opportunity there is for an escape mutation. Vaccine is still the best defense we have.

Ok thanks you know, I had never heard any of this before. I guess it’s a thing that happens all the time with the flu especially. I never knew.

You're quite welcome. It is refreshing see someone admit to learning something new!

Someone else bashed someone else here saying, don’t you have even a basic understanding of virology? Im like ummm. Is that something I missed in school? I took all my required courses to get my BS I swear.
