This is all I had to read of your comment. Vaccines have helped immensely in preventing severe cases, which is a step towards normalization. Did you want vaccines to make people immune to a rapidly spreading and adapting virus? How many flus have you had? Still not immune to them?

Zero with symptoms. Unknown amount without. I've never been tested. For all I know I'm immune to all flus.

Well, I envy you then. Every winter I get the flu that's doing the rounds at the time, except for 2020. Sometimes twice if there's a break in summer. Maybe asthmatics are weak against respiratory infections.
