[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Vaccine doesn't prevent viral transmission.[/b] Look at data from Israel, current positive cases are skyrocketing, higher then two peaks back in Sept 2020 and Jan. Of 2021. Among the people who became positive during a outbreak in New England, viral load are the same between the vaccinated and unvaccinated. The vaccine is good to prevent people getting too sick.[/quote] Is it 100% effective at preventing infection? No. However, vaccinated people are five times less likely to become infected than vaccinated people. That's a lot. The vaccine is good at -reducing infection with SARS-CoV-2 -reducing illness from covid -reducing serious illness from covid -reducing hospitalization due to covid -reducing death due to covid[/quote] Also, - Increasing smugness by coastal liberals[/quote] Are you saying that the vaccine is good at increasing smugness by coastal liberals? Not in my experience. The vaccine may be good at inducing fury among vaccinated people towards people who refuse to get vaccinated and thereby prolong the pandemic. And it's true that, overall, vaccination rates are lower among people who don't identify as Republicans. But that's really an issue for Republicans, and the Republican Party, to address. Why aren't they strongly urging their potential voters to go get this life-saving, economy-saving vaccine?[/quote] Yes, the 72 percent of young Black New Yorkers who refuse to get vaccinated are the responsibility of the GOP. Lol.[/quote]
