The vaccines were not intended only to stop severe disease.  They were intended to stop the spread of Covid.  Please go back and read the news around the time the vaccines were released.  Some examples included Biden and the CDC saying we would not need to mask anymore after being vaccinated.  CDC guidance also allowed a person exposed to Covid to avoid quarantine if they were vaccinated.

The rhetoric changed once it became apparent vaccinated people were still getting infected with and spreading Covid.  This is one of the reasons so many people are skeptical of the CDC and vaccine manufacturers now.  They narrative keeps changing.

The narrative keeps changing because yes, science and public health evolves. The vaccines work against severe disease and death and if you can't see that, I can't help you. Quit waiting to be spoon fed everything and open your eyes. It's a big world out there. I don't care what people were saying about COVID two years ago. Things have evolved. Keep up. [/quote]

Yes, things "evolve". That's why it was unfortunate that at the time vaccines came out they were sold as "very effective at preventing infection" for which they turned out not to be as effective as originally thought. However, at the time if you dared utter any statement contrary to a perfect "infection effectiveness" narrative. Twiiter, Facebook, etc would immediately slap your statement as "misinformation". Hence the skepticism at any pronouncements deemed "definitive" - that's not science - that's ideology/belief[/quote]
