Does anyone Find this Strange that Prince Charles is the Latest Royal to Test Positive for Covid?

Question

***I am Sure he is Fully Vaccinated and Like some Other Royals who had Tested Positive at One Time, ONLY Hang with Vaccinated people. Any thoughts? xx

"Testing positive for COVID" is a poor phrase.

It doesn't mean you have the disease COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease, discovered in 2019).

It means that you have the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19.

Vaccination is COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT to having the virus or not.
Vaccination is a way to prevent COVID-19 or to mitigate the effects of having the COVID-19 should you get the disease.

But, it is the acquisition of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that is the real issue.

To minimize the probability of getting or spreading the SARS-CoV-2 virus, practice:
1. Social distancing
2. Mask up
3. Wash and disinfect frequently.

The more often you do these things, the less likely you are to get or spread the SARS-CoV-19 virus and, thus, the less likely you are to get or cause others to have COVID-19.

>>> This is not rocket science people (I know, I did rocket science for a living 30 years ago). Stop being an idiot. And asking stupid ill-thought-out questions like this only spreads disinformation which is even more harmful than COVID-19.

>>> Grow the fuck up and STOP IT!

I don't find it strange because maybe he was hanging out in a place which have been already visited by an carrier before. Yes a person maybe fully vaccinated but we don't know whether the person is carrier or not. Maybe that corona virus is spreaded in their palace due to carriers and maybe he touched a place which had corona virus and is not cleaned thoroughly.

My nephew called Mr and yesterday and said he has COVID again. This is his second bout with this demon. He is fully vaccinated including the booster, and still, he contracted COVID again!!

llorando · Answer

Not strange as the vaccine doesn't prevent you from getting covid, it only prevents you from getting sever covid which it's not 100% effective at doing or there would be a few cases of vaccinated people dying from covid.

loveslongnails · Answer

Ok, let's do a quick, basic explanation of how viruses work.
Covid is a virus. It mutates. All viruses mutate, evolve, adapt. When a virus jumps from an animal to human, it takes some time to adapt to its new host. Scientists early on believed this adaption would become more contagious and virulent, but it turns out that isn't the usual case according to many experts, including Dr. Mark Day, a nano researcher in the virus field. He states, I'm paraphrasing, ... the best thing for the organism is to spread more readily. So the basic rule is that viruses become more contagious, but less deadly. However, this takes time.

If you had Covid pre vaccine, then got vaxxed, it was based on the initial strain. Then you got the Delta variation, then Omicron, and it continues. Your initial vaccination offers some protection against the variants, and it's quite clear that those who were vaxxed and DO get a variant are far less likely to have severe cases, including hospitalizations.

Those who are anti-vax take great joy in pointing out "ha, they're vaxxed and they STILL got Covid" or "I know someone who was vaxxed, got Covid, and died anyway!" Yes, that's possible - possible, but much less likely. Getting into the "much less likely" category is what vaccines are about. Seasonal flu shots are a great example of that. It doesn't "guarantee" you won't get the flu, it just offers protection against known strains.

So to answer your question, no I'm not surprised when a person vaxxed against the original strain gets a 2nd, 3rd or 4th generation variant of it. What IS unusual is that they get extremely ill from it, but again, you're dealing with a virus and billions of individual immune systems and individual issues where everything you've ever done to your body comes into play.

NamerOfStars · Answer

No- why would it? Those shots DO NOT prevent you catching Covid. They DO NOT prevent you SPREADING Covid. The one and only thing they do is reduce symptoms. Symptoms, not even viral load (well, not appreciably, anyway), so you're actually MORE likely to spread it, since you're less likely to know you're sick.

Two hundred years from now, kids in history class are going to be looking back at the hysteria we've had over this disease and wondering how on Earth a people so well informed could be so panicky and stupid. Laugh at the Dutch over tulipomania? Well, they didn't have internet access in the seventeenth century; what's YOUR excuse going to be?

Shark_61695 · Answer

Nah, you go anywhere now the mask mandate has stopped and no one cares. Just left a motorway services (always a hotbed of infection due to people being from everywhere) and there was almost no one wearing a mask.

I am in favour of restrictions being lifted but common sense should dictate when mixing with lots of strangers, take precautions. I still wear a mask at the supermarket and similar places.

JamesCarrington · Answer

No. Not strange at all. The vaccine does not stop you getting Covid. Just helps stop it being bad and helps stop you passing it on. It prepares the immune system to fight an infection. Once prepared, the immune system does little until you have actually caught it.

It is not like some other vaccines, like measles, which work for life and prevent you getting it at all.

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

The vaccines don't prevent your chances of catching the virus Paris. It merely reduces the risk of dying from it.

bolverk · Answer

Not areal surprised, If he has been exposed to Covid previously it is of no surprise that he's tested positive for it now, as the natural occurring antibodies are approximately 6x to 10x more effective than antibodies from any of the current vaccines the tests could be giving a positive reaction to those antibodies and doesn't necessarily mean he has been re-infected with Covid.

AviatorTom · Answer

Not strange at all. A significant number of vaccinated people are getting COVID, and Prince Charles makes many appearances to groups of people, which means he has a high probability of being exposed to the coronavirus.

menina · Answer

I don't find this strange at all. He might be part of the "Royal Family" but he's a human being. All human beings who are alive now are at risk of getting sick with Covid.
Besides vaccines are not 100% effective, no vaccine is (for Covid or other diseases) so there's always a chance of getting the virus.

Bel88 · Answer

Yes, isn't it all rather odd that the only ones who seem to "test positive" are those who have been double-vaxxed. It's almost as though the vaccines don't actually work. Funny about that.

exitseven · Answer

Maybe it has to do with all the inbreeding that royalty has done in the last few hundred years.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

Why should it surprise me. He's only human. How is he any better than any of us, just because we choose to believe that he needs to be showered in accolades.

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

Yeah plenty people have had it twice. Whats the latest death rate in the US?  has it 900k yet?

cth2188 · Answer

Not strange at all everyone vaxxed will catch Covid -19 .. the issue is the problems behind these jabs.. I won’t touch anyone vaxxed at this point with a 9 foot pole

EnglishEuropean · Answer

Charles is Acting Queen (stop sniggering at the back) so he has to meet all kinds of people who are undoubtedly swimming with disease. So no, it doesn't surprise me at all.

red324 · Answer

Paris do you live under a rock? Lots of people with the vaccine still get it.

Likes2drive · Answer

It’s still happens to some people I guess it depends on their immunity

Dmony45 · Answer

I find it very strange indeed even though I don't care about it

Flower7 · Answer

No, not strange at all. Vaccinated people get sick too. Unfortunately…

Cherry234 · Answer

No, I'm not surprised. Anyone can get covid, even vaccinated people.

UdontNeedtoknow · Answer

Every single human on the planet has had covid by now. The "vaccine" that doesn't vaccinate only helps with the symptoms to a point and that is it. A good and strong immunity system and lots of vitamin D helps. Covid is nowhere near as deadly as the media makes it out to be. It is contagious however.

Anonymous · Answer

Well, the science told us that vaccination is 100% effective so Prince Charles is obviously anti-science if he still caught Covid. He should’ve trusted the science more.

Waldoe · Answer

vaccines are a farse... Leftists trying to control everyone and change the social order...
