Did you RTFA? It's about an outbreak that occurred among many, many vaccinated people, who subsequently exhibited high viral load and came down with symptomatic illness, in a state with a 74% vaccination rate. There is zero evidence that all this is occurring because the vaccination rate is at some arbitrary level less than 100%. Gibraltar and Iceland have also had outbreaks despite very high vaccination rates.
Sorry the vaccines aren't the miracle elixir they told you they were.
- WheelsAtLarge 5y agoHerd immunity is the biggest benefit of vaccines since vaccines aren't 100% effective, no vaccine is. The Smallpox vaccine is 95+ effective and loses effectiveness over time. Yet, we don't see Smallpox outbreaks. It's all related to herd immunity. The COVID vaccines have a high immunity rate but they will only stop outbreaks, if the majority of people will use them. If we don't act together, it's going to take a long time for that to happen.
