Doesn't giving a coronavirus vaccine to everyone increase the
chances of the virus mutating to avoid the vaccine?
Nope, it's the reverse of that, the virus can only mutate in
infected people and so the fewer that get infected, the less the
chance of it mutating.
Exactly!

So we should be using it sparingly.
Nope, we should be vaccinating as many as possible with the best
vaccines to reduce the number who get infected.
Yup. And they are nearing what they think is herd immunity in New
York. Amazing.
Dunno, nothing useful on that with

Gotta link ?
Did more looking into this. Need 70% to get to herd immunity:
It is COVID fatigue causing compromises I think, 85 to 90 percent is
better but 70 sounds more "doable" at this point in time. Not enough
IMO.

I have the same feeling -- but no evidence to back it.

I was thinking in terms of the US. But, yes, if there are mutations where
the
immunity is reduced then the idea of herd immunity goes out the window.

A relevant part:

"At this point, data is not yet clear on whether the vaccines from Moderna
and Pfizer-BioNTech, while highly effective at preventing symptomatic
disease, also stop the spread of the virus.


That part is just plain wrong.

So the words 'reduce' and 'stop' are synonyms to you?


Are you still wasting time with this troll?
