The Pandemic has made us really look at who we are & where we go from here.

What’s going on is that people who are not vaccinated are building up immunity by getting sick. What we’re seeing is that being vaccinated or getting sick does not provide perfect protection, or even long-lasting protection against getting ill again. We’re probably going to see a larger fraction of people who get COVID being those who are vaccinated. 

The flip side is that the vaccines are still really effective against serious illness and hospitalization. For example, recent data from New York State suggests that people who are vaccinated are 20 times less likely to be hospitalized. Vaccines aren’t going to protect you forever against getting sick, but they will protect you from getting really sick.                                                                   Johns Hopkins School of Public Health
