The circle of COVID. Unvaccinated better equipped to defeat looming Lamda variant

Some terrifying bullet points from this Reuters update:
* Lambda now spreading in So. America** is highly infectious and more resistant to vaccines than the original version of the virus
* Researchers found those recovering from COVID (while remaining unvaxed) have immune system antibodies that evolved, becoming more potent and better able to resist new variants
* Rockefeller Univ. reported fully-vaccinated people who never had COVID, will not get antibodies that neutralize new variants, from a 3rd dose of an mRNA vaccine
* mRNA vaccines begin to wane by the 5th month, and their antibodies show "little measurable improvement" in the ability to neutralize a broad variety of new variants
* 3 mutations in Lambda's spike protein help it resist neutralization by vaccine-induced antibodies. 2 additional mutations help make Lambda highly infectious
* Senior researcher Kei Sato of the Univ. of Tokyo, "Lambda can be a potential threat to the human society."
** One also has to wonder why the border is still wide open?

And yet China is virus free with no reported deaths even from the delta variant.

Never, ever trust the CCP.

Regardless.
I simply don't understand people who had the virus getting vaccinated.
It just boggles my mind.

I dont think they used mRNA vaccines, did they?

Y'all realize we are on our way to Omega, right? As in, the end?

I asked my doctor today about getting the vaccine and he said I should. I then told him I had covid in November and how does having it before vs getting vaccine now protect me any better.
He didn’t go into details but did mention there could be a benefit from having covid before kinda like getting the jab now.

Vaccine, no vaccine, masks, no masks. Whatever the case may be....this isn't good news. Article says these papers haven't been peer-reviewed but....yeah, not good for anyone. Less than a year and we're seeing MAJOR mutations?

It will keep going until there are no more old, fat or infirm.

At least on the first go round.

I had Covid last month. My doc said not to worry about the vaccine anytime soon. She even offered to write a letter in case I ran into any “proof of vaccination” type issues.

yeah, we dont have the data or the control group to determine if natural immunity is superior but it seems like a reasonable assumption
anyway, with lambda and delta plus, people are going to start getting anxious and begging for lockdowns again, especially if these variants can circumvent the vaccine.

I've read two theories on that, bio-engineered to mutate, or the vaccine antibodies have forced the mutations.

So far it’s been shown that natural immunity may last at least 11 months.

Biden is bringing Lambda into the US via infected illegals aliens to follow up on delta. Time to overthrow.

Who is your doctor? I need to go there
