You have to regularly take tests if you aren't vaccinated, so that mechanism works in the opposite direction. We should have been seeing a higher representation in the unvaccinated even if the virus simply ignored the vaccine.
- Scandiravian 5y agoI disagree If this variant is mostly asymptomatic, but spreads rapidly, in the vaccinated population, then you would also see higher rates in the vaccinated population, given that vaccinated people only test after they are notified that they have been in contact with someone who tested positive. This gives a larger window for the virus to spread further among the vaccinated part of the population before containment.
