if 90% of the under 20s have antibodies does that means natural immunity from a recent infection and then why do they also need a vaccine
They don't
Just look how many tests we do!
Would we need so many tests if there wasn't so many cases, as many with symptoms don't officially register the fact it would seem 49,000 is more likely to be the tip of an iceberg, we seem to be doing something very different to the rest of the world, why?
It would seem it is now very prevalent in younger people, luckily their parents being younger would have been some of the last to be vaccinated so the vaccine is very likely to be still protecting the parents to a reasonable level, not sure what happens as time goes on & it is still swirling around schools & their parents vaccines are nearing the 5 or 6 month time when the vaccine protection tends to weaken if booster shots aren't available.
Not sure what other countries are doing but we are more or less letting it run now, we've all been offered the vaccine so it's get back to normal and the unvaccinated can take their chance.
Can only report my own circumstances but had my second dose back in early May, son just tested positive but absolutely no effect on me.
In that case the vaccine can't be all bad, which one did you have?
AstraZeneca, having said that my 10 year old daughter didn't catch it either so I feel my son cant have been very infectious despite the positive test result.
Luckily I've had the same, just waiting for the booster dose now.
Estimated 30% of cases are asymptomatic. That's before vaccines.
I went to a footie match on the 7th Sept , full house it was ,and 2 days later had a cold that developed into a sore throat and cough that I still havent fully got rid of .
