They're not binary states. Infection isn't a 0/1 either/or, just like "transmission" isn't. And the chances of getting/doing either are not binary. Same with "immunity." Not binary. Immune system is very complex.
Ever have a mild cold, or a mild case of food poisoning? Ever been immunocompromised, or near someone who is? What is their potential response to and outcome of a viral infection? Not binary.
Why are people so innumerate? Even a humanities major understands there are more than the two numbers one and zero. Concepts of percentages and probability. Why do so many people have difficulty with this?
No, it's not binary. Science is hard. Critical thinking is hard. Doing things, anything, is hard. Unfortunately for QAnon Twitter trolls and anti vax morons, viruses don’t neatly confirm to their manichean views of reality.
Viruses don’t give a **** about who you voted for, and they don’t care what you tweet.
