Quit spreading misinformation. It’s been extremely well documented that the vaccines do not prevent spread whatsoever.

Would love to see your source on that.

But even if that’s true (which I have a hard time believing considering the nature of vaccines), it’s been repeatedly proven that the vaccine does dramatically reduce both symptoms and life-ending complications.

How have you managed to avoid 2-3 years of the news mentioning that? It’s why “herd immunity” isn’t a thing for this disease yet, and why it’s still a problem despite the vaccine, and no, there isn’t enough anti vaxxers to explain it. I mean, for gods sake, there was literally ad campaigns imploring people to get the vaccine because transmission occurs regardless.

LOL. Your source is an antivax hit piece, with a single quote about unknown efficacy in 2020 tied behind a whole slew of conspiracy logic.

This is supposed to be painfully obvious?

Dude…

They sure as hell do. Show your sources or GTFO.

  • The vaccine trains your immune system to generate antibodies that target the virus
  • When you get infected, those antibodies attack right away to keep the virus population low
  • With low viral load you literally have fewer viruses to spread to other people

If you’re not vaccinated (or not boosted for the correct variant) then the virus population blooms much more quickly and you get a higher viral load, meaning your coughs and sneezes are quite literally more contagious.

I started to read that article but it was a lot of charged language, and then when it got to the point about transmission it made the typical argument that they weren’t tested to see if they stopped transmission (the primary goal of the vaccination was to decrease hospitalization and death, so they didn’t test for this). I then realized how long the article was and lost interest. Can you quote the part of the article where they actually make the claim that it did not lower transmission?

Here’s a link to an actual study that claims it reduced transmission.
