Clearly then, you misunderstood what you were reading.? Not ambiguous at all.? Here's the statement:?

Clearly you don't know what ambiguous means.

Definition:?(of language) open to more than one interpretation; having a double meaning.??

1) Merck clearly stated that their results were specific to their own vaccine candidates.
2) They very clearly stated that the Phase 1 clinical studies of their own candidates generated an immune response inferior to those seen following natural infection.
3) They very clearly stated that the Phase 1 clinical studies generated an immune response inferior to OTHER?SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 vaccines.??

Here is is again.? No double meanings.? They definitely did not "issue a rather ambiguous statement implying that natural immunity may be just as good."? As in "they put out a general statement that natural immunity is as good as getting vaccinated?"?

Not even close to what they said.? You either chose to purposefully misrepresent what they said, you ignorantly repeated what you read on Facebook (and then lied here), or you truly didn't comprehend what you read.? What are you taking to improve your comprehension?? Maybe double it.??

In these studies, both V590 and V591 were generally well tolerated, but the immune responses were inferior to those seen following natural infection and those reported for other SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 vaccines.

Facebook users have claimed that pharmaceutical company Merck has said it is better to catch COVID-19 and recover naturally than it is to get vaccinated. This is false. It is a misrepresentation of a statement from Merck.??

The company’s statement about an inferior response compared to a natural immunity referred only to tests on its own two vaccine candidates.?It was not advising against delivery of other COVID-19 vaccines. As it noted in its statement, other candidate vaccines have led to recipients showing a stronger immune response. ~Reuters

What is surprising is the number of informants posting here that apparently did not even get an annual flu shot at their local Walgreens. Go figure.

Thing is that companies have been trying to develop a vaccine for the common cold (which is also a coronavirus) for decades without success.? Everyone getting the jabs now are guinea pigs.? I'll be content with being the last in line.

Let the caterwauling begin.
