    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…

            Yeah, sure, just ignore the links and references, pretend google doesn’t exist, pretend you haven’t read anything or watched any tv in 2 years, dude.

              Because “Google”, an antivax opinion hitpiece with a single source about efficacy (yes there are other sources about absolutely nothing to do with transmission and more about how poor antivax folks are demonized, cmon dude), and what everyone “just knows” from the last two years are magic arbiters of truth…

              Lol fuck off dude. Give me some actual sources/studies with no opinion whinging and I’ll bite.

              Until then, you’re the very thing you keep writing everything else off as, conspiratorial nonsense.

                Always amazing how committed people are to believing lies. That “Hit piece” was literally riddled with links to sources.

      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.
