IMPORTANT EXPLANATION to vaccine questions. @michaelmina_lab explains it all:
“why is a vaccine is a more trusted source of immunity, if already have antibodies & T-Cell response?”“How does vaccine give me more protection than some earlier immunity?” ( @dianaberrent asks) https://twitter.com/michaelmina_lab/status/1330380716232888321
2) In addition to Dr Mina’s above explanation, @VirusesImmunity also explains her rational: https://twitter.com/virusesimmunity/status/1330318287943708672
3) Further, noted earlier that the Pfizer & Moderna vaccines both showed better antibody binding & neutralization in vaccinated people in their P1 trials, than convalescent natural infected survivors.
Hence, another reason vaccine better than Scott Atlas’s “herd”. #COVID19 https://twitter.com/drericding/status/1330111548870832129

4) As @michaelmina_lab explains, vaccine is more targeted to the #SARSCoV2 receptor while natural infection has a more “choose your own adventure” what parts of virus one develops antibodies to. Targeted likely better. https://twitter.com/michaelmina_lab/status/1330383383415943169
5) The analogy @michaelmina_lab explains is that natural infection can develop non-useful antibody recognition like to a less useful “pinky toe” part. https://twitter.com/michaelmina_lab/status/1330383677851922432
