Thats not the part that was incorrect. As I said if you have a mild infection the immunity fades in most cases. It has nothing to do with what strain we are talking about, you wouldnt even be protected from the same strain.

90% of the people who are likely to wind up in a hospital are vaccinated.. yes that what matters. Most people under 50 vaccine or not will not even show up on the register if they get sick since they are unlikely to ever get sick enough to need to go get checked out.
The vaccine isnt "useless if they still get sick" because it isnt an all or nothing thing. The vaccine significantly reduces their chances of getting sick, not 100%, but significant enough to be far from useless.
@yaksha
@ex Then you will fit in just fine.
Oh my, what an idiot I am for embracing my racial heritage and learning about it.. yea soooo gayyy, LOL
@yaksha
I am a professional SCUBA diver who dives over 400 feet depths and into underwater huge cave systems... If i were scared about my health I have much bigger concerns than COVID.
@yaksha
You have to keep in mind the numbers arent likely saying what you think they are.
If 99 out of 100 unvacinated people get infected, but 10 out of 100 vaccinated people get infected, then clearly the vaccination reduces infection.
However even if the above numbers are true if an overwhelming majority of people are vaccinated then you will see **more** people in the hospital with covid that are vaccinated than unvaccinated.

@ex You do need to be a STEM professional, or student, or at the very least an enthusiast. But you dont need a diploma. Only time we require someone to prove their affiliation with STEM in some way is if your straight out blasting conspiracy theories and anti-science rhetoric, at which point we might verify, but thats pretty rare.

Well, I think I have a reason to try mastodon again. Hello, Qoto!
I'm Russian from Russia and will be writing mainly in Russian for obvious reasons, but I can understand English pretty well.
Last time I checked out this instance I thought that you need a photo of your STEM diploma as a proof for registration, lol.
@ex happy to help, reach out anytime!
The people who wind up with severe cases of the disease dont have weak immune systems. You can easily have a mild case with one infection and then a severe one later on.
@yaksha
@ex yea i think youll have to wait until they fix the problem on their end.
This dude doesnt know a thing,, he just talks out of his ass.
I am well informed on it. Notice the word "largely", are you aware of what that word means and how it is distinctly different from "only"?
@SneedsterSpeedster @yaksha
@ex that error does not effect QOTO itself as far as I know. However it likely is effecting the server you are trying to migrate from. So the bug will have to be fixed on the remote server until you can migrate your server here.
What is the remote server you are trying to migrate from, I can look into it.
@ex QOTO supports account migration. And our version isnt outdated so much as a fork. But it is compatible with mastodon vanilla.
Whats the problem?
They smell absolutely glorious, at least compared to this crowd.
