Sen. Rand Paul said he won’t get the COVID-19 vaccine because he has already had the coronavirus and believes he now has “natural immunity.”
Paul (R-Ky.), one of the first senators to test positive for the virus last March, told John Catsimatidis on his WABC 770 AM radio show that it’s a personal decision to opt-out of the vaccine.
An ophthalmologist, Paul said unless he sees evidence proving that the vaccine is more effective than having survived the virus, he won’t be getting the shot.
“Until they show me evidence that people who have already had the infection are dying in large numbers, or being hospitalized or getting very sick, I just made my own personal decision that I’m not getting vaccinated because I’ve already had the disease and I have natural immunity,” Paul said in the interview that aired Sunday.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has encouraged people who have had COVID to get vaccinated because “experts do not yet know how long you are protected from getting sick again after recovering.”

My doctors agree with Senator Paul.
And i’ve been saying the exact same thing about there not being ANY studies showing that natural antibodies being any less protective.
I keep looking.
Albeit it’s a good idea to get an IGg blood-test every 3 – 4 months, just to see your current level of antibodies.
(I know there are also “Memory ‘B’ cells”, but while there are ACTUAL antibodies adequately present, there should be NO doubt of protection.)
Apparently the pharmaceuticals (and their lackeys) consider natural antibodies bad-for-business….
p.s.
It’s quite possible that the vaccines produce a greater QUANTITY of antibodies. (But not great quality.)
Therefore, as long as a person has the natural antibodies (above the level of 14.9) they are good to go…
Here is my analogy:
If a car has a full tank of gasoline, it will not perform any better than if it had only a half-tank!
The only difference is that with a half tank, the driver might need a refill sooner….
My tank has premium. It will perform better. But the vaccine is safe. Drive on.
Mr. Paul – you’re not alone – most Americans who didn’t take it until now are not taking it anymore. too many “issues” popping up with vaccinated people like “heart muscle” problems now in young people, etc. etc.
From the beginning of this the establishment never farginned people who had the virus. I believe they fault that it is “unfair” that someone who got sick should have more leeway than a person who was “careful” and didn’t get it. Unfortunately, by this attitude they lost my goodwill.
2 members of my family took the antibody test 14 months after they had covid and have very high antibodies. I made the same decision as the senator.
He’s right that those who have anti-bodies already from Covid do not need the shot. That the CDC refuses to recognize this is so stupid and leaves people with much less respect for the CDC and sir Fauci. Nevertheless, getting the shot is a good idea as it gives an extra bit of protection.
The fact that the CDC won’t recognize that having had the virus with a positive test for anti-bodies is enough to be considered immune. In Israel they give the Green Pass to those that are vaccinated or who already had covid. One important point. Believing that you already had Covid, but never tested positive for anti-bodies means that you didn’t have it and must get the vaccine. You think you had covid and don’t want the shot, get tested!
Anyone who hasn’t tested positive for anti-bodies, even if he believes he already had covid, should definitely get vaccinated. Getting the vaccine not only protects you, but also prevents others in your family and the person next to you from getting covid.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has encouraged people who have had COVID to get vaccinated because “experts do not yet know how long you are protected from getting sick again after recovering.”
The thing is that experts do not yet know how long you are protected from getting sick again after getting the vaccine either!
You hit the nail on the head.
No need to censor my comment, you idiots.
Bill Gates’ children, families of the CDC, WHO, the educated and rich also didn’t take the covid vaccine NOR any other vaccine. Any sane person who realized from day one that coronavirus is a hoax, did not take it either. It’s only the sheeple who did.
When the Chinese invade North America in 5 years, it will be the 150,000,000 unvaccinated who will be in position to fight back.
Uh oh. I better start learning how to speak Chinese now already.
