    Why are so many vaccinated people getting COVID-19 lately? The highly contagious omicron is more likely to infect people, even if it doesn't make them very sick, and its surge coincided with the holiday travel season in many places. #ViralQuestionshttp://apne.ws/FdsbVui

        Mutation of spike proteins in Omicron not covered by vaccine spike proteins? Too scientific I guess

        Only about 30% of the population has gotten a booster.

        Neither the booster nor the vaxx stops transmission so even if 100% of the population was vaxxed it would make no difference whatsoever. The vaxx is supposed to limit severity of symptoms for the individual so how does that have any bearing on spread or variants?

        Because the vaccine is not a cure just keeps you from getting really sick

        Delta was the same but people (USA) thought they were getting only colds BECAUSE they were vaccinated and didn't even get tested. Vaccines work to prevent hospitalization or death.

        “Vaccinated people who get the virus are more likely to have mild symptoms, if any, since the shots trigger multiple defenses in your immune system, making it much more difficult for omicron to slip past them all.“
