To The Daily Sun,
In response, again, to a letter from Mr. Earle earlier this week, I must correct him one more time.
1. Vaccines are defined as "A preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases. Vaccines are usually administered through needle injections, but some can be administered by mouth or sprayed into the nose." (CDC.gov)
2. Vaccines do not always eliminate a disease. Sometimes they even have to be given multiple times as with influenza. The vaccine must be altered or adapted to keep up with variants. Vaccines teach the body to recognize a disease quickly and fight it more easily. This explains why many people who, like you, are fully vaccinated catch a disease like Sars-CoV-2 and recover. Without a vaccine, someone may or may not be able to fight the disease.
3. Those not fully vaccinated against Sars-CoV-s were four times more likely to test positive for the disease and 15 times more likely to die of the disease than those who are fully vaccinated. (CDC.gov data for November)

AMEN!
It's time the press and media hammer home these people who continue to spin conspiracy driven nonsense about vaccines, how many times do we need to hear about anti-vaccine advocates dying of COVID, no matter how many people that continue to rail against the vaccine, it is clear that what driven the high COVID rates and deaths in the United States are the people who refuse to take the vaccine.
In the United States the Unvaccinated are the main drivers of what's keeping this Pandemic thriving and causing everyone's, including themselves to have to deal with restrictions in our lives.
