This is exactly what I am trying to understand.

If someone CHOOSES not to take the vaccine, why does that even matter?

If you are vaccinated you can catch and spread the virus. If you are unvaccinated, you can catch and spread the virus.

Should we mandate diets for overweight people? Should we mandate an exercise program? This would definitely "save more lives" than the Covid shots!

At this point, Im curious to hear what you guys think the actual purpose of the Covid vaccine is.

Your right, but at this point it doesn’t matter. And no one should be rounded up.

the real question is, why aren’t more people asking this question?

Definitely not less likely. Less severe yes.

That’s what I’m seeing, vaxxed are spreading it more with less symptoms. But honestly no one around my area even cares, they are just dealing with it if they get it.

Funny how the interwebs work - it wasn't behind a paywall when I saw it a few days ago.

Anyways, here's a snippet

The Delta variant of the Covid-19 virus appears to be breaking through the protection vaccines provide at a higher rate than previous strains, a Wall Street Journal analysis found, though infections among the fully inoculated remain a tiny fraction of overall cases, and symptoms tend to be milder.U.S. states counted at least 193,204 so-called breakthrough cases among vaccinated people between Jan. 1 and early August, according to data that health departments in 44 states and Washington, D.C., provided to the Journal. The figure represents 0.1% of the more than 136 million fully vaccinated people in those states and the capital.

Its good see airline pilots are still too penny-pinching to buy a newspaper. I used to appealed to see captains walking they the cabin trying to scarf up papers, magazines. Then, bring a Mickie DL’s bag back to the hotel for dinner.
