Using my logic, nobody gets a green pass unless their fully compliant with all their 6 month booster shoots for the rest of their lives.

But your "logic" is not based on science, which says that for most of the population vaccines as recommended right now continue to offer enough protection even after 10 months of the first inoculations. This completely contradicts your conclusions. You are not following the science just misrepresenting what the science says. This is very clear in the information provided in this same article.

Having access to a computer can make you an expert in virology and vaccines according to some experts here.

Some follows blindly the science and accept blindly everything what the science is saying.

Some follows logical human intellect.

Everybody can choose...

Some follows logical human intellect.

As long as "logical human intellect" do not actually mean "what I like and is convenient for me, even if it can be proved false". Science in escence is just the method to find out what is actually happening controlling for well known sources of error so the results are much more likely to be true.

Everybody can choose...

That always applies, you can choose to follow what professionals trained in researching things have found out, or what your personal experience full of biases tells you. The first option is much more likely to be correct, but not everybody have the actual disposition to accept when something they want to believe may not be true according to the evidence.

For non-experts, i.e. most of us, the only way to know anything about virology and vaccines is to read and follow and trust the opinions of actual experts. Not the opinions of anyone with a computer, which is what most who reject the opinions of experts seem to prefer to do.

Exactly, anybody can easily see what the experts have to say about something even without being one, trying to contradict them based only on your personal opinion is what would mean trying to pretend to be one.

Science is using logical human intellect.

Accepting blindly what " science is saying" is not science

The EU?

Aren't they just a bunch of brown bag bureaucrats?

If the science shows that 3 shots is better than 2 than the definition of fully vaccinated must therefore be changed from 2 to 3.

why flu vaccine is a yearly shot.

Follow the science, it's the only way.

yep its the safest way

far better than the pseudoscience practiced by a minority of the population
