re: #131 NetworkKed

People keep saying this, and I’m not seeing evidence of it. Yes, there have been a very, VERY small number of reinfections, but that’s out of millions of documented cases.

The virus mutates, but what I’m hearing is that it’s not a fast-mutating virus, certainly not on the order of influenza or HIV. The particular proteins that vaccines are targeting are especially unlikely to mutate. Boosters, maybe, but I doubt the yearly guessing cycle of flu shots will be the model.

And if we can stomp it down with wide enough vaccination, then there will be fewer strains developing that can cause problems.

MIT said this two weeks ago based on scientific evidence.
