Why was natural immunity ever given equal recognition? If they test you, confirm you have it, and you have recovered then your body would have the same learned immunity it gets from the deactivated virus in a vaccine.

are you talking about vaccines versus infections in general? you want the protection conferred by vaccines instead of infections, because that spares you the experience of the infection, which depending on the disease, could fucking harm you pretty bad. now keep in mind that it's a numbers game and you get no guarantee of freedom from infection after vaccination. you consider the average risks and outcomes.

If someone wasn't spared the experience, would you acknowledge they also have the same immunity gained from the vaccine?

A vaccine has the possibility of conferring immunity to more than one strain, as is the case with ordinary influenza for instance. More importantly, the immunity can not be said to be gained by a sufferer who has been killed by the disease. With COVID, there is the possibility of long term damage if surviving, and being infected again in the future. On the average, vaccines lessen the severity of that disease if infection has not been outright prevented.

With COVID, there is the possibility of long term damage if surviving, and being infected again in the future.

Irrelevant to whether someone who has been exposed should be granted the same rights to prove their immunity. No one thinks it's good to catch a deadly disease.

To be clear, you think getting an inactive form of a virus can confer immunity, but that contracting and recovering from the virus cannot?

Can you find a single reliable source that corroborates that?

There is research showing resistance to the virus when exposed in the past, from live and non-live exposure. There is no data supporting your statement.

The covid vaccine teaches the immune system to recognize the spike protein. It's an MRNA vaccine, not a traditional "inactive virus" vaccine.

Also, a covid vaccine gives you a paper you can use to prove it. "I've already had COVID" - anyone can say that, and plenty of selfish people are there who would because they want to get in at any cost.

Do you believe that people who have caught covid experience less long term side effects than those who have received the vaccine?

Additionally, its much harder to prove that you have had covid versus proving you have received the vaccine

Neither does the vaccine, we just went over this.

You keep avoiding a simple question: if both provide some immunity, and neither will necessarily prevent future infection, then why was only one considered a qualifying immunity?

> Also you get any possible long term side effects from going through the illness

Yes, this has already been brought up several times. It's irrelevant to the actual question: if someone has already contracted the virus and recovered, if they already have the risk of long term side effects, should their natural immunity be recognized?

Door people didn't make the rules, they were following the policies set by the vaccine mandate. Letting in visitors without vaccine documentation would get them reprimanded or fired, it was taken very seriously.

These policies never allowed natural immunity to be given the same weight, and the policymakers in congress and on corporate boards never had any scientific reason for the idea that vaccines protected you better than natural immunity. There was never any scientific literature, never any actual scientists, claiming that vaccines did anything more than natural immunity.

Medical records created by licensed physicians.

We already have a society that accepts these documents when an employer needs a doctor to verify a condition. The same for government benefits like disability than require a medical evaluation.

This has already been figured out, it's not a problem anywhere else this is done. Yet when it came to the vaccine mandate, it was decided that this would not qualify. That decision was not based on medical professionals, or scientific consensus.

If there is a check to make sure the people coming in have been immunized, showing proof of that isn't "gaming the system". No one is committing fraud or tricking anyone. Showing medical records from a physician isn't being a smart ass.

If you are convinced there's a difference, but can't point to any published medical research, you are putting politics above science.

Multiple possible reasons:

* To check if it actually was covid, or if the test/diagnosis was faulty.
* To see what strain they have antibodies against
* Collecting data on the quantity of those antibodies.

Generally there is no follow-up to test your antibodies after a covid diagnosis. They discharge patients, and tell them to contact the hospital again if further problems arise.

Healthcare providers all share a centralized medical record in the US.

These companies already accept a doctor's note to explain a leave of absence, so they already have a method to check these. Anyway, someone could print out a fake COVID card too, the problem was that no mandates allowed natural immunity to be accepted. That decision was not based on any scientific evidence, and the explanation given for how vaccines work was always that your immune system learned the same way it did from a live virus.

Because science. If you catch a virus and your body recovers from it, it is medically impossible for you not to have produced antibodies to fight off the infection.
