Is it better to be vaccinated than to be infected with Omicron? CDC Response

On December 20, the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council held a press conference to introduce the medical services for key populations. At the meeting, Wang Huaqing, chief expert of the immunization program of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that although the pathogenicity of the Omicron strain that is currently prevalent in us is weakened compared with other variant strains that have been prevalent in the past, we have also seen After being infected with Omicron, there is still a risk of severe illness and death. In addition, the proportion of people with underlying diseases will be higher. Therefore, we suggest that those who have not been vaccinated should still get vaccinated, and those who have not completed the booster vaccination should complete the booster vaccination as soon as possible, so as to reduce this risk to a relatively low level among the elderly, adults and young people. | Related reading (Financial Association)

It means that you are right, but there is no guarantee that you will not be seriously ill if you are infected. It is wrong to regard infection as epidemic prevention, otherwise why would scientists develop an inactivated virus vaccine!
