Doesn't giving a coronavirus vaccine to everyone increase the
chances of the virus mutating to avoid the vaccine? So we should
be using it sparingly.

Good point actually.

Nope, shows a complete misunderstanding of how viruses mutate.

Only if you take his "everyone" literally and assume that it is 100
percent effective at preventing "hosting" the virus.

Doesn't need to be anything like 100% effective at reducing
the chance of getting infected to radically reduce the number
of hosts that the virus can reproduce in. That's the only way
it can mutate, by reproducing.

Yes, it needs a host.

It seems you don't understand how viruses mutate

My original statement is completely accurate.

I didn't say it wasn't, I said the OP had a good point.

or how vaccines work.

And so is my later elaboration on that too.

The best of the covid vaccines have been shown to dramatically reduce
the rate of covid infection in the vaccinated. They don't just reduce
the rate of severe infection and death as you previously claimed in
another of your posts.

I didn't say that.

Yes you did, here it is again.

The other point is, vaccinated people can still host the virus
and spread it to others, they are just less likely to get the
serious disease outcome than the unvaccinated.

That is true,

Nope, very misleadingly stated.

the vaccines make it less likely to get serious disease, they do not make
it impossible to host the virus.

In fact they radically reduce the risk of hosting the
virus so the phucker is just plain wrong, as I said.

Thanks for clearing that up.
