You can't vaccinate against pneumonia?
Lol, k.
- No. No you can't. Again, you really do not understand how any of this works. Pneumonia isn't even a cause, it's a symptom. I can be caused by fungi, viruses or bacteria. Saying you can vaccinate against pneumonia is like saying you can vaccinate against a runny nose. That's literally not how anything works.
  But please do keep digging.
  
  You can't vaccinate against pneumonococcal bacteria?
  You sure?

  I know you're pretending that's the only cause of pneumonia, but you're wrong. You are listing a common cause of the symptom, far from the only cause.
  Pneumonia is inflammation and fluid in your lungs caused by a bacterial, viral or fungal infection. It makes it difficult to breathe and can cause a fever and cough with yellow, green or bloody mucus. The flu, COVID-19 and pneumococcal disease are common causes of pneumonia. Treatment depends on the cause and severity of pneumonia.

  Let me guess, you know better than they do.
  
  Jesus fucking christ.
  Judt admit you were wrong about not being able to vaccinate against bacterial diseases.
  Pneumonococcal vaccine vacinates against a bacteria responsible for the vast majority of pneumonia cases. Hence, it's name.
  
  Sure, as soon as you admit you were wrong about pneumonia. Then we can both admit wrongess. But I doubt you will somehow.
