I recall when the first results came out and though they were good, they were never 100%. And I certainly understand that no one was able to predict the way in which variants would develop, and to what degree they would reduce the effectiveness of the vaccines. In the end, vaccines have been more about reducing hospitalizations and deaths (which they do really well) than reaching herd immunity, but how was anyone supposed to know that a year ago?

And when that number increases rathee than decreases, despite high rates of vaccination, people are confused. And the government does nothing to correct thus.
