Vaccination is not enough by itself to stop the spread of variants, study finds
Vaccination alone won't stop the rise of new variants and in fact could push the evolution of strains that evade their protection, researchers warned Friday.

So I'll wear a mask, no problem. Will you get vaccinated since both are better than one?This is what I been saying

When I said this, people were ready to argue me up and down. I’ve said many times, vaccines shed. This means that someone who was vaccinated, can shed the virus after being vaccinated. There is proof that even previous vaccines have shed and caused a strain of the measles for example from the vaccine itself.
I don’t know who created the idea that unvaccinated people are to blame for viruses spreading but chileeeeeee, how can they spread something they didn’t contract lol

Breakthrough COVID cases: 169 fully vaccinated dead, 644 hospitalized in Illinois
More than 100 fully vaccinated people have died and 644 fully vaccinated people have been hospitalized due to COVID-19 in breakthrough cases, Illinois health officials said.www.fox32chicago.com
Government and media need to be more transparent on the breakthrough hospitalizations and deaths. They've been saying there's virtually no chance vaccinated people will be hospitalized or die, and now this.
This might still fall within the 1% outside of the 99% protection from hospitalization or death, but even so it's not comforting at all.

I said you, not everyone. If we going to keep it funky and hold each other to the same standard, let's do that. But don't try to make it one way for you and another way for others. Everyone who can do both should do both. Vaccine and mask.

I’m all for keeping it a buck and I am talking about me.
when I speak on not enough data.....it’s more personal.
so when people say not getting the vax is stupid......they are not taking many things into consideration.
