I don't see how any of this is relevant to my comment? I never said the vaccination doesn't work

  The vaccine massively reduces the major risks associated with COVID-19. Including the risk of transmission to others. A fact you seem to be quite pointedly ignoring. Scale and degree matter. (That relative rates have to be discussed on HN, a site nominally dedicated to fractions-of-a-percentage conversion-rate optimisations in advertising and sales funnels is ... well, it is.)

    Yes but where did I say anything to the contrary? If you don't have COVID, there is a 0% chance of you transmitting the disease. Regardless of if you've had it before or not, once you get the vaccine you now have a > 0% chance of transmitting the disease, and it is a statistically significant chance. All you're doing is posting articles that boast the proficiency and efficiency of the vaccine, which I never discounted. The focus here is that once you get the vaccine, you become a transmitter, doesn't matter that you have lower chance than someone who is unvaccinated. W.r.t someone who does not have COVID, they should take the same precautions against those who are vaccinated as they do for people who are not, and my post is pointing out the hypocrisy of the OP who seems to believe that since they are vaccinated, they are somehow safer to be around than someone who is unvaccinated, while to an unvaccinated person who does not have COVID, these two groups of people should be treated the exact same way.
