Is catching Covid now better than more vaccine?

Is catching Covid now better than more vaccine?

There are marked differences in your immune system after a natural infection with coronavirus and after vaccination.

Which is better?

Even asking the question bordered on heresy a year ago, when catching Covid for the first time could be deadly, especially for the elderly or people already in poor health.

Now, we’re no longer starting with zero immunity as the overwhelming majority of people have either been vaccinated or have already caught the virus.

It is now a serious question that has implications for whether children should ever be vaccinated. And whether we use the virus or booster shots to top up immunity in adults. Both have become contentious issues.

Independent Canadian MP blasts Trudeau’s COVID-19 jab mandate as a ‘criminal’ election ploy

Independent Canadian MP Derek Sloan has called Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s politicization of COVID-19 vaccines as a “criminal” election ploy.

“It’s clear that the Liberals will say or do anything to win a few votes and Justin Trudeau just a few months ago called vaccine passports a divisive issue. It is clear that they are willing to turn on a dime to anything, to gain them power,” Sloan told LifeSiteNews.

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the department of health will pick up the tab and says the new program “addresses a longstanding gap in Canada’s national immunization programming by providing a timely, no-fault financial support mechanism for all people in Canada, in rare instances where they are seriously and permanently injured performing a public good, being immunized.”

‘Seems like using the nuclear option’: Canadians who don’t want the jab decry COVID-19 vaccine mandates

TORONTO — Canada’s largest banks are the latest industry to announce mandatory vaccine policies this week, following the government’s announcement that federally regulated industries will require staff to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

Ottawa’s vaccine mandate has been met with mixed reviews by the public, with some feeling that workplace safety is better served if all employees are vaccinated and others decrying the perceived infringement on personal rights.

Others were concerned about accommodations provided for those who cannot get a COVID-19 vaccine due to medical reasons.

Alabama doctor pledges to stop treating unvaccinated patients

Valentine planned on mailing a letter to his patients about his decision. He posted the letter online, the newspaper reported.

“We do not yet have any great treatments for severe disease, but we do have great prevention with vaccines. Unfortunately, many have declined to take the vaccine, and some end up severely ill or dead. I cannot and will not force anyone to take the vaccine, but I also cannot continue to watch my patients suffer and die from an eminently preventable disease,” the letter stated, according to the newspaper. “Therefore, as of October 1st, 2021, I will no longer see patients that have not been vaccinated against COVID-19. If you wish to keep me as your physician, documentation of your vaccination will suffice. If you wish to choose another physician, we will be happy to transfer your records.”

This lying bastard needs to have his license revoked.

Mixed dose woes: Some Canadian cruise ship workers lost out on jobs due to their mixed vaccines

Several countries don’t recognize people with mixed doses as being fully vaccinated.

That’s the general position in the United States where the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) currently doesn’t condone mixing COVID-19 vaccines.
