People that got the vaccine do you regret it yet?
The vaccine was a bio weapon and I knew it from the beginning and still happily unvaccinated.

Zero regrets. The vaccine saved over ONE MILLION lives in the US in 2021 alone.

[big] the vaccines have ALREADY saved over ONE MILLION lives.[/big]
Here's the math behind the ONE MILLION SAVED number.
The data https://similarworlds.com/disease-illness/vaccines/4268857-Covid-Vaccine-effectiveness-data-from-the-US-2021 says 80% of US Covid deaths came from the 25% unvaxxed. Unvaxxed population = 83 million; vaxxed = 249 million. CDC estimate for US Covid deaths in 2021 is 460,000, so 368,000 deaths among the unvaxxed and 92,000 among the vaxxed - your basic pandemic of the unvaccinated.
That works out to a 0.44% death rate among unvaxxed, and a 0.037% death rate among the vaccinated. Please, get out your calculator and check my work!
If the death rate among vaxxed were equal to the death rate among the unvaxxed, that would have resulted in 1.1 million deaths instead of 92 thousand in 2021. Thus the vaccines have ALREADY saved OVER ONE MILLION lives in 2021 alone. That's a YUGE vaccine benefit!!!
And that's just deaths. In 2021, the vaccinated also benefit from a 5X lower infection rate, at least a 5X lower hospitalization rate, and a 5X lower 'long Covid' rate.

OK, dippyjoe, I'le bite. Link us to your evidence and your "up to date data." Oh, wait, I forgot, links and evidence are your [i][c=359E00]kryptonite[/c][/i], LOL!!!

@ElwoodBlues and you are eagerly waiting for your Darwin Award to arrive thanks to those 'life saving' jabs. You really need some up to date data. That nonsense you spew was disproven years ago.
