The mandates that refuse to recognize the science of natural immunity are truly dangerous.
The disingenuousness here is tiresome.
Yes, there is some evidence that naturally-acquired immunity is stronger than vaccinated immunity.
BUT--if we're actually "following the science"-- there is also good evidence that natural- plus vaccine-immunity is stronger still,
AND that naturally-acquired immunity DOES NOT LAST and unvaccinated people are much more likely to be infected a second time than are the vaccinated.
https://www.brgeneral.org/news-blog/2021/august/unvaccinated-are-twice-as-likely-to-be-reinfecte/Now, probably all of us know people who refuse to be vaccinated, and we know that those same folks are more likely not to wear masks unless absolutely forced to and very unlikely to be tested--until/unless they show up in an emergency room. (Don't we all know people who subscribe to this "package deal" of uninvolvement with Covid-19 mediation?) So the FACT--follow the science!--is that those people who've previously been infected, but haven't been vaccinated, are more likely to be a danger to others if infected again, because they're more likely (with a mild or asymptomatic case) not to know about the re-infection--and more likely not to be wearing masks, and hence to spread all kinds of germs, including SARS-CoV-2.
