					<description><![CDATA[We know that Covid vaccines reduce the risk of future infection by over 200%, and also reduce the severity of infection, compared to getting the disease. The official current thinking by the CDC is that vaccines are better than natural infection for Covid-19, based on that research and other considerations.

I&#8217;m not comfortable explaining why that is the case, but I&#8217;m usually told that the actual killer coronaviruses (there are not many, most viruses of this kind are not big problems for humans) came and went too fast to &#8220;need&#8221; a vaccine.
