Anecdotes become data at large n sizes. :) Also, if you’re theoretically vaccinated, wouldn’t that mean you don’t display symptoms if you contract the virus? Your family may have gotten omicron but the vaxx was effective and so you didn’t get sick enough to notice. That’s what the expert consensus, viz that the vaxx is effective, would predict, right?


Yes, the potential exists that some or all of us have had covid cases that were completely asymptomatic because we were vaccinated… which then just speaks to the miraculous effectiveness of these vaccines.


Agree. It’s hard to even remember any similarly successful pharmaceuticals. Maybe Lipitor or one of the recent hep c drugs, but I think Pfizer pulled in like 20 billion in the last year alone. Even more “miraculously effective” once you consider that it will be a few times a year drug rather than a “one and done.” Project Lightspeed was arguably the greatest achievement of our federal government since FDR.
