It is truly a sad story. Is it true? Don't I don't know - I don't have a way to independently verify it. Unfortunately I have had a personal experience with some friends who were young and healthy dying after getting COVID. At the same time, some of the friends family members who were older had survived the infection (after a long battle with the illness). How to explain it? I don't know...
There is no easy or clear way to predict if you are going to be lucky or unlucky if you were to get infected. Additionally, it turns out that having COVID once does not prevent you from getting it again (I know people who battled it several times).
Vaccines do not confer immunity, they add a layer of protection. You can think of it as they prime your body to start beating the virus before it gets too far in the infection cycle.
BTW, there are no nano particles or metals in the US vaccines. When vaccines were initially rolled out they did list one of the ingredients as "lipid nano particles". What this means, it has a lipid envelope (quite literally a fat bubble) to contain mRNA and to help it get transported through the cell membrane. Looking back, this is probably a very unfortunate way to label things. Also, please understand, mRNA does not get inserted into your DNA and it does not modify your genes in any way. mRNA is a molecule which is used to manufacture or "print" a protein that is a component of the virus outer shell (not a protein that causes infection ether). This protein triggers immune system to produce antigens to COVID, so when a real virus comes along, your body is already familiar with the intruder and is ready to fight it before too many viral particles are spread through your body. I'm not a virologist, so I can't tell you how long this protein or the antigens remain in your body, but mRNA itself gets chopped up and destroyed by your body in about 48-72 hours. It is the same process that happens to ANY mRNA that your own body produces naturally every second of every day of your life.
In any way, please mask up, get vaccinated if you are able to and be patient. We are all in this together. Remember - E pluribus unum.
