Cruise ship with all passengers and crew required to be v******ted have positive tests.

I've yet to see a report counting the number of individuals who have died from a breakthrough infection.
The report is here:
https://www.cdc.gov/v*****es/c****-**/health-departments/breakthrough-cases.htmlData reported as of September 27, 2021; here is a summary:
Total v******ted in US - over 183,000,000
Non-fatal hospitalizations from breakthrough infections - 16,889, of whom 11,653 (69%) were age 65 and over
Deaths from breakthrough infections - 5226, of whom 4491 (89%) were age 65 and over
Among the v******ted, 99.99% have not had a severe breakthrough case of C****-** as of 9/27/2021.

Looking at "Deaths from breakthrough infections," I'm supposing nearly all these deaths involved one or more existing vulnerabilities in tandem with the breakthrough infection.
The Chinese k**ler v***s strikes harder at individuals with certain conditions: old-age, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, chronic illness, and so forth.
The public medical reports omit mention of these conditions.

P****r scientists say natural antibodies are better than v*****es.
- Natural immunity confers more diverse antibodies, against several proteins on the v***s, rather than just against the spike protein.
- Natural immunity antibodies appear to last longer than v*****e-induced antibodies, which decline more rapidly, especially in the elderly.
- However, data also show that natural immunity antibodies do decline over time.
- Furthermore,
not everyone who survives C***d develops natural immunity.
- Studies have shown that up to 20-25% of people who survive C****-** fail to develop adequate natural immunity:
https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/27/9/21-1042_article https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33614814/- Giving a single m**A injection to those with natural immunity boosts antibody levels, as Triple G points out.
We should recognize natural immunity as valid protection when it is present, and we need a rapid, reliable test for immunity and stop using proof of v******tion as a surrogate for immunity.

Those false positive tests on The View were very convenient don't ya think? Just so happened they were on a day when our VPOTUS was to be interviewed. Everyone knows how well she does with those. The fewer people asking questions the better.
Breakthrough cases, why don't we give them a name that fits, like "These damn v*****es don't work"?
V*****es aren't 100% effective, but they lessen the chances that you will catch c***d, and if you get a breakthrough case they lessen the chances that you will get seriously ill or die. Those damn v*****es DO, in fact, work. You don't understand that yet?

False positive test results can occur (as two of the moderators of The View found out).
Breakthrough cases can occur.
V******tion is protective but not a panacea.
No test, no treatment, is ever 100%.
Why masking and social distancing should not be dismissed.
Perhaps a cruise, where close contact with folks from outside one's "bubble" may occur, is not necessarily a good idea at this time.
People are not all the same and your mileage may vary.

Add to your list: f**e v******tion cards now exist.
Some people have made up their minds against the v*****e for the Chinese k**ler v***s. Appealing to reason or recent history will not persuade them to submit to v******tion.
Given so, I hope herd immunity will happen despite the v*****e hold-outs.

I’m hearing good reports on blood titer tests as reassurance of antibody levels. My brother’s test showed the need for a booster and his wife’s results were so high, they wanted her blood! They had the P****r v******tions at the same time.

One thing you don't seem to understand. I have had C***D according to my doctor. I had "0" symptoms and would have never known I had been infected until my blood test revealed natural antibodies. With these natural antibodies comes protection from the v***s, including the delta variant, proven by multiple studies. That's something those that have received the double v*****e can't say. With natural antibodies I see no reason to inject chemicals into my body to protect me from something I'm already protected from.
Just listening to your rant, and logic, I'm guessing you wear 3 pair of underwear just in case you s**t your pants.

I'm required to have a blood test every 6 months, all is good.

I understand that you may have natural antibodies as a result of getting the disease, although my understanding is that the amount of such antibodies can vary significantly from person to person who has been infected. I also understand that it is not clear yet how long those antibodies last beyond 6 months. So unless your antibody levels are periodically being tested your really have little idea how protected you are. That is why it is recommended that you get v******ted. This recommendation does not come from me, but is from the scientific community that specializes in c***d and the v*****e. 185 million Americans are fully v******ted with no significant adverse reactions.

Due to having no thyroid function, I am required to get blood tests every 6 months, and request that antibodies be checked at the same time. Natural antibodies can be identified by a simple blood test, those who receive the the v******tion and have never had C***D do not have that luxury and have to take the word of someone else that they are protected. Even the FDA recommends anyone v******ted not get an antibodies test. If you can't be tested for an antibody, how do you know you're protected? Oh I forgot F***i told you so.
