[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If vaccinated people are getting it, why the need for a vaccine passport? Seems silly at this point. [/quote]

I think this will be mostly relevant after this wave begins its decline (which based on the South African example will hopefully be in a month or so) at which point, "vaccinated" will mean 3 shots. I suspect that the data will show that while people with 3 shots can still spread the virus they do so at a lower rate than vaccinated folks. It will be even more relevant after an Omicron booster is available (estimated March 2022).

Speaking for myself, I'd feel better about going out to a restaurant etc where there's a vax mandate not only out of concern for myself (I'm younger and low risk) but out of concern for people I might spread the virus to. I want to balance my desire to eat out with my desire not to be harming public health. Some people are behaving stupidly or stubbornly by refusing to get vaccinated, no question--but I don't want them to die for their poor choice. So I  don't want to contribute in spreading the virus to them.[/quote]

**typo. meant to say: I suspect that the data will show that while people with 3 shots can still spread the virus they do so at a lower rate than UNVACCINATED folks. It will be even more relevant after an Omicron booster is available (estimated March 2022).
