Does anyone have good stats to share on how vaccination impacts transmission? I’m curious.

Once a vaccinated person has a breakthrough infection they spread similarly but of course the chance to contract it is lower and the time to "virus clearance" is faster.

  Except that's not how Covid spreading actually works, and if you look at the relevant science it proves that vaccination status does not stop or slow the spread at all. It simply lowers the chances you'll experience symptoms, which renders any type of vaccine mandate as illogical and pointless. It actually shows that the vaccinated are the likely reason for the recent mass spreading...since while un-vaxxed are more likely to be in bed with symptoms away from other people while vaxxed are walking around town unknowingly spreading it to people at the grocery store. Anyone that supports vaccine mandates that take away people's livelihoods while denying this science that PROVES otherwise is an absolutely terrible human being. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8481107/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8481107/ https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.31.21261387v4 https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.31.21261387v... https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.11.12.21265796v1 https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.11.12.21265796v... https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(21)02243-1 https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(21)02243-1 https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/new-study-from-germany-confirms-higher https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/new-study-from-germany-co... https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/circ.144.suppl_1.10712 https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/circ.144.suppl_1.107...
