I just hope they don't pull a Fauci and decide to announce after a while that "well, we knew that the vaccine had only 70% efficacy rate, but we said 95% so people didn't panic and were encouraged to vaccinate".

@CuluraChimera @coyote
I don't think this case is a mutation issue. The problem is, the vaccine doesn't take effect immediately anyway. Even after the booster shot, you still have to wait a decent amount of time before you can expect your immune system to be ready.

A second potential problem is that, as for any vaccine out there, there is a small percentage chance that the vaccine does nothing for you.

Mutation rate might be a problem too, but so far, from my understanding, the current mutations in the wild should not effect the efficacy of the vaccine.

@coyote
I ask because it was reported for a while that the vaccine reaches peak efficiency a good while after taking the second dose, not immediately. Can't remember what the expected time span was after that booster shot, and can't really find anything conclusive after a quick search. So not sure, but I expected there would be some protection after 1-2 weeks after the booster. So I guess he's in the 5% unlucky for whom it just doesn't work.

if you’re going to get picky about the form, then choose your bar of chocolate.

How much time passed between the second vaccine and getting corona?

Oh, ok. I tried searching for Vanadium and no reference to grapheneOS came up. :blobshrug:

2020 didn't actually end. We just tricked ourselves into thinking it's 2021. In reality we only imagined we went through 2020 summer and autumn. It's a sort of mass delusion we're going through. By my calculations, we're in fact most likely still somewhere between end-of-winter and beginning-of-spring 2020.

@IcyGrillz
I'm not aware of any browser or software called Vanadium. Do you mean Vivaldi? The settings to control what tabs it should open with are in the General Settings tab, under Startup section.
