What is your definition of “effective”?
The public’s definition was “I get the shot and won’t get covid or be able to spread Covid”. I posted a compilation of our leadership saying that very thing too on this thread. Then lo and behold…we find out that not only can you can still get it, the disease is not any milder than when an unvaccinated person gets covid, and you can still spread it.
I will repeat this again because people on HN can’t see the forest through the trees. I am not antivax. I got the vaccine. What I am suggesting is the government overselling the effectiveness contributed to a public shift towards antivax attitudes.
You can put your hand over your ears and pretend it didn’t happen. You can post how “you don’t care” and don’t want a response…but that will not stop the attitude shift.
