Isn't that what vaccines do, prepare out immune systems to fight pathogens? I mean a vaccine isn't like a rain coat or a pair of galoshes.

Well the average MAGA hat type doesn't know shit outside of their life in the Lazy Boy, their six-pack of PBR, and their big screen TV watching the NFL.

But the alt-right conservative leadership, civil and political in this country know it good and goddamn well...but lie about it every day anyway.

To put it even more clearly, they prepare our immune system to fight infections. You must be infected for the antibodies to have anything to do

I stand corrected. " fight infections"

Pisses me of when I hear the liars & deniers accuse the "Left" of politicizing the response to the virus when it was their dear dear leader, the former occupier of the Oval Office, who politicized it from the get go.

Yep, and totally self-interested politicization at that.

What you said didn't need correction. I just want to emphasize the word infection because it makes totally clear what vaccines do, and don't do. They fight infection, usually keeping it at a non-serious level, often keeping it so low you never notice a symptom. But they don't do a thing to keep a few viruses from getting up your nose and infecting you in the first place. If unmasked, vaccinated people get infected just as easily as anyone else.
