my 2 cents about the vaccines [View all]

My family is living proof they work. During the holidays, we had 2 family members stay with us. We were vaccinated and had the boosters just 3 weeks ago as did one of our visitors. The fourth visitor who was vaxxed 6 mos ago, came with a slight cough which got worse during the week, slight fever commenced and he felt crappy. He tested positive. Never had to be hospitalized, but the real interesting part is the remaining three of us that were boosted never got symptoms or ever tested positive. We tested twice the week after we parted company. We sat with a symptomatic person for a week, playing board games, talking around the table, etc. It was obvious to us, boosters work! We are in our mid 60's. Just had to give cudos to the scientists that spent their life learning how to develop vaccines to save our lives.
