Notes
gollark: ?
gollark: Infection-based herd immunity is mostly a terrible idea for other reasons, such as tons more people getting it and dying, and massively overloaded hospitals.
gollark: Which is surely even *more* ridiculously rare than being infected twice.
gollark: I mean, yes some governments are being terrible about COVID-19 in general, that doesn't mean there's any issue with the vaccines.
gollark: I see. That seems like a stretch.
