Why would they take a covid test if they believe they are immune?

Because vaccinated people mostly don't believe they're immune. We believe we have a strong protection against infection and a stronger protection against death, but that doesn't mean immunity.

My wife and I have been fully vaccinated since May, but we've had several tests since then (so far all negative) when we learned about contact with infected people or were experiencing suspicious symptoms.

> We believe...

I'm vaccinated but had no idea I had such representation on HN, I believe you should speak for yourself sir.

If you disagree, you're wrong, because the GP comment reflects the best currently-available information. Are you OK with being wrong?

That's been the weirdest part of this whole business for me... learning just how many people simply don't care if they're wrong.

Are you serious dude relax. It’s ridiculous for someone to say “we” like every vaccinated person acts exactly the same across the whole country, much less the world.

I believe most people willing to tell just anyone their beliefs are likely dishonest, and most the honest people are less forthcoming with their beliefs, in part just to avoid potentially having to lie.

It's not the question of being right or wrong but speaking on someone's behalf. It would be enough to say "As a vaccinated person, I believe..."

Everyone is different and will have a different lifestyle/environment. It’s completely normal for someone to not have taken a test over the last 6 months.

Who says the vaccinated believe they're immune? I certainly don't.

Because vaccinated don't need to be tested. At least in my country. So beside of segregation people on two groups, there is one important question. Does our govement want more people dead because of this nonsense?

As a requirement to travel to certain places

Because they are more responsible.
