Although it grieves my pedantic mind to do so, I have given below just a short rationale, rather than a paragraph or two, for each point. These are links to evidence and reasoning which refute the recurring statements made here on this thread by the conspiracy theorists about the efficacy of natural immunity, herd immunity, and recurrent vaccines.

Ps – if Covid was as ineffective at causing great harm and death as the common cold, then surely the vaccines, social distancing, etc., would be unnecessary. What am I missing?
Colds and flu's do cause great harm and death.
I would have to say that you are not so much missing anything as much as you are being mislead. You truly believe that everything so far being done has been done so with the public's greatest interest at heart. I look back and see so much done to us with that same phrase that was such a big lie that I refuse to just accept what anyone tells me. I have to check it out for myself and I do not see why it has been made such a big deal out of. If there is nothing to hide, why am I being told to shut up and role up my sleeve? Why is it so difficult to get others opinions? Why are we being censored? Read my writing.... we are being censored.
