This is drivel. First, even against Delta, the vaccines remain some of the most effective vaccines ever, at preventing severe disease. Second, COVID just doesn't mutate that much considering how prevalent it is, in part due to RNA proofreading. Moreover, no, emperical evidence shows the neutralizing antibody effect of vaccines decreases the spread of variants.

> Moreover, no, emperical evidence shows the neutralizing antibody effect of vaccines decreases the spread of variants. The world started vaccinating in January - 10 months ago. You won't even begin to know the true effectiveness of the vaccine and its outcomes until at least one more year goes by ey? Then you can begin to compare year over year health outcomes in highly vaccinated groups, vs unvaccinated, in the same region (same viral seasonality profile), across age groups. I can't wait to see regional all cause mortality with accurately age (and other vars) adjusted data between the vaxxed and unvaxxed.
