CV and mad panic behaviour

[kruddler]

Vaccinations may reduce the transmission of the Delta Variant in 2 ways: vaccinated people:

1. may be less likely to become infected, and if you’re not infected you won’t give it to anyone else.
   
2. may be less infectious if they do become infected and may therefore be less likely to infect others than unvaccinated people.
   

I think there’s some evidence to support both propositions, but I’m not informed enough to go further than that.

If either or both of the above propositions are correct, then the more people vaccinate, the less transmission there will be in the community. The odds of vaccinated and unvaccinated people being infected will then be reduced.

Any reduction in transmission rates will help to prevent Covid mutating into more dangerous variants, or at least will help to delay those mutations. More dangerous variants will be a threat to both vaccinated and unvaccinated people.

For those who have listened to Stuff You Should Know podcast, one of the 2 blokes there has got covid recently and talked about it.
He said him and about 14 other people all went out to dinner together at some resteraunt. All of them were completely vaccinated.
40% of them have since come down with COVID despite this.
Where he is they won't don't test to tell him which strain it is, but he's pretty confident it is the delta strain. His Doc is saying it appears to be only 60% effective against the delta strain.
He said he felt crap for a couple of days, and its pretty much just like the common cold. He is able to continue the podcast and he just sounds a little bit congested, but otherwise fine.


Going back to the Vikings coach refusal to get vaccinated,  i hadn't heard that yet. Do you know his name?

I'm not sure if the NFL is within their right to kick him out. But i understand why they would want too.
But riddle me this....if he has a condition where its not recommended for him to get vaccinated....is he not within his rights to take legal action? Or if he is forced to, and does, and gets a side effect from it, could he not do the same?

Dangerous ground being entered into.
