@joeinwynnewood @GreySkies @augieray Today, mRNA vaccines somewhat reduce your risk of death. The decreased odds of becoming infected due to vaccination are gone by month three, and were never grounds for confidence. See lookerstudio.google.com/embed/ (From covid19resources.ca/covid-haza under "Infections", top of the right hand column.)

With COVID, brain damage is certain once infected. Better to not get infected in the first place. Get vaccinated, but emphasise air quality and the best respirator.

First, I've had 6 vaccinations, that chart only goes to 4. Second it says nothing about the degree to which vaccination reduces the likelihood of infection in public spaces.
Lastly, your statement regarding brain damage is highly suspect. The possibility certainly exists as is the case with cardiovascular issues, but certain damage?
I very much doubt you can find a quality study that makes such a definitive conclusion.
Air quality and high quality masks? Of course.

@joeinwynnewood @GreySkies @augieray You might want to look for "COVID neuron fusion"; you might find the university press release uq.edu.au/news/article/2023/06 or the paper, science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv interesting.

(There is of course nothing to say this is the only mechanism.)

As for vaccination; those figures give the odds of infection on exposure. Where the exposure happens isn't relevant.
