> The speed at which nAb resistance develops in the population increases substantially as the number of infected individuals increases, suggesting that complementary strategies to prevent SARS-CoV-2 transmission that exert specific pressure on other proteins (e.g., antiviral prophylactics) or that do not exert a specific selective pressure on the virus (e.g., high-efficiency air filtration, masking, ultraviolet air purification) are key to reducing the risk of immune escape"
So the CDC made a grave error in telling vaccinated people they could remove their masks.
- criticaltinker 5y agoThat is one way to look at the situation, but it will be a long time before we can definitively say this was a major error relative to other recommendations and actions taken. A broader perspective and perhaps a better takeaway is that to mitigate this pandemic it seems we - collectively as a society - need to focus on more sophisticated & multi-faceted strategies beyond the current mRNA vaccines, lock-downs, and masks.
