He's talking about transmission, you are talking about reduction of symptoms.

The vaccines don't prevent transmission. Now follow that to its logical conclusion: "we forcefully vaccinated everyone on Earth, why are we still having outbreaks?" Because... Well, you get it

After you sit down and mull over this concept for a while, vaccine mandates make absolutely no sense. Vaccine passports make absolutely no sense. Unless your goal is a slight reduction in ICU patients, forcing people to get it is a straight up violation of human rights.

"Pandemic of the unvaccinated" yeah, right. Blame the leaky vaccine, not the people who already have natural immunity.

Reducing the odds of getting covid does reduce transmission. That is what the vaccine does.

All you have to do to stop the spread of a virus is lower R below 1. The vaccine would do that if we vaccinated everyone.

> The vaccines don't prevent transmission.

People vaccinated who get infected tend to have cases that do not last as long as they do in unvaccinated people, which reduces the number of people they spread it do.

I haven't heard of a shorter duration with vaccination. Could you please post the source for this?

Thank you. Exactly.
