Delaying a Covid vaccine’s second dose boosts immune response

None of that is an argument against getting vaccinated against viruses that easily spread amongst the population with mild to horrific effect, mutating as it goes along.

We should be celebrating science, the discovery and advancement of vaccines, and their ability to give immunity or strong protection against diseases that have previously debilitated individuals or worse.

The fact that I have never known anyone with Polio is because of the strong global efforts to irradiate the disease from the face of the planet. Tragically the anti-science and anti-vaccine messaging has made that not possible for covid... something that's already resulted in near equal death of WWII in just over a year and will only continue.

I think that's a false dichotomy. You're saying the success of vaccine A implies success of vaccine B? That because some people wrongly argued against vaccine A, I can't argue against vaccine B (even at such an early point)?

And, by examination of evidence, everyone who has received a vaccine for covid is protected from it. Let them be free to make that choice.

"And, by examination of evidence, everyone who has received a vaccine for covid is protected from it."

Are you saying that every covid vaccine has 100 % efficacy? ("everyone", "a vaccine"). AFAIK this is not true for any extant vaccine.
