The first two paragraphs
Few Americans have received the latest vaccines against the coronavirus: Just over 7 percent of adults and 2 percent of children had received the shot as of Oct. 14, according to a survey presented on Thursday to scientific advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The uptake is weak even among those most at risk of severe illness. Only one in five people age 75 or older has been vaccinated, along with about 15 percent of those ages 65 to 74, according to the survey of nearly 15,000 people.
Yes. This is the case for so many people. And each reinfection is a roll of the dice. Each time people get it again, there's the risk of disability and death. Some health problems last forever. Sometimes when people get covid, it gives them a permanent condition like diabetes or a heart problem or an autoimmune disorder. The media acts like people who get covid get better, but that's not the case for everyone. We can't go back in time but at least we can try to not get it again and try to not spread it to anyone else. Best wishes to you, comrade. I hope you get better, and if not, I hope your condition does not get worse.
