It’s probably true. Vaccinations tend to make the disease milder.

A friend of mine and a ski buddy - a doctor in New Jersey - got sick with CoViD and spent the last 2 weeks in a hospital. Yesterday he became worse and was transferred to an ICU. Last I heard, he had to be intubated and put on a vent.

He is 73, a very healthy, athletic man. At his age, he still goes on a few ski trips every year. He’s in a really good shape. Not vaccinated. I’m not sure why, but he mistrusted the vaccinations from the very beginning.

I think that at his age the risk / reward ratio of vaccination is clearly in favor of doing it. There is no way to know for sure whether it would have helped him personally - but the data suggests it could have.
