Reply to comment by TasteofPaste in New evidence suggests that ‘hybrid’ immunity, the result of both vaccination and a bout of COVID-19, can provide partial protection against reinfection for at least eight months. Immunity acquired by booster vaccination alone seems to fade somewhat faster. by MistWeaver80

At this point I am just resigning to the inevitability of catching COVID multiple times. Had it once, will probably get it again.

If you follow the precautions and get boosted you have very little to worry about. It’s the people who still think they can just run around with no mask, no vax, and no empathy that is biting us in the ass

You know, I'm all about science is great and so are vaccines, but I got my 4th shot (the Bivalent booster) and tested positive for covid 3 weeks later.

I am laid up for a full day after each shot (except for the first one) and then I was laid up for about 5 days after getting Covid. And this is with all my vaccinations.

I didn't die and I didn't get on a ventilator but I don't think I would have anyway. I just found that the entire experience of staying on top of my shots but still getting taken down by Covid for a couple of weeks (I was still feeling poorly after being bedridden for a week) to be disappointing for being fully vaxxed.
