I'm vaccinated and think vaccines should be mandatory -- so I'm pretty extreme pro-vax -- but I do think we're mismanaging vaccines.
A lot of what we're doing seems to be analogous to an incomplete course of antibiotics.
I was pretty optimistic about vaccine+N95 masks+modest social distancing. On the other hand, mixing vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals with no protection seems like a recipe for vaccine-resistant strains.
What's interesting is the hypothesis that strains will become resistant to vaccines by becoming more virulent -- where unvaccinated people die in droves, while vaccinated ones have a "normal" infection.
