Good try on that title.

At least one vaccine reduces spread.

"The vaccine developed by the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca not
only protects people from serious illness and death but also
substantially slows the transmission of the virus, according to a new
study €” a finding that underscores the importance of mass vaccination
as
a path out of the pandemic.

Researchers at the University of Oxford measured the impact on
transmission by swabbing participants every week seeking to detect
signs
of the virus. If there is no virus present, even if someone is
infected,
it cannot be spread. And they found a 67 percent reduction in positive
swabs among those vaccinated.

The results, detailed by Oxford and AstraZeneca researchers in a
manuscript that has not been peer-reviewed, found that the vaccine
could
cut transmission by nearly two-thirds."

It is interesting that we seem to be considering all of these new
vaccines equal when it is turning out they aren't. Once supply catches
up, we may be getting another round of the "good" vaccine, which ever
that one is for your particular circumstance and I still think there
will be an annual booster.

I also think "free" may go away after a while. Like any good drug
pusher, the first one is always free ;-)


So far, it seems the worst vaccine pretty much eliminates
hospitalization. I would not complain about that.

You have set your sights pretty low.

Nope, avoiding serious disease is what matters.

You are saying you are willing to get sick

Not enough to need hospitalisation, yep.

and spread the disease

You dont know that the vaccinated to that.

as long as you don't die is all we need.

Nope, he isnt saying anything like that.

I would hope they come up with a better answer

But you have always been a terminal ****wit.

and if so we will be having another round of vaccinations.

You dont know that is necessary.

That is all I said.

You have always been, and always will be
completely and utterly irrelevant. What you
might or might not have said in spades.

That also assumes the current vaccine
works on the mutations we know about

We know that they do.

and the ones we will learn about by summer.

No evidence that they wont and the new vaccines
are easy and quick to modify if they dont.
