      Does Noakes not realize that this is one of the hoariest, stupidest antivax arguments there is? I was dealing with it two decades ago.https://twitter.com/AlastairMcA30/status/1416643493502484489 …

      Allow me help! 1) The vaccine is not 100% effective. So unvaccinated people DO pose a risk to the vaccinated. 2) Some are immune-suppressed and require the rest of us to be vaxed to protect them 3) More infections = more variants. Threatens effectiveness of vaccines. /1 pic.twitter.com/6TY75MAWKT

      In fairness, the CDC effectively supports Noakes' position, with their "no masks for vaccinated" policy in basically all circumstances.

      The @CDCgov does NOT say that the unvaccinated are no threat to the vaccinated, as Noakes does.🙄

          They don't outright say that, but that's how people interpret it when the CDC basically says vaccinated people don't need to wear a mask under almost any circumstances. They also tend to think the CDC is the last word on what the science is even though many scientists disagree.

          They don't say that, but their recommended policy which has not changed even in light of the delta variant strongly implies it-

          The @CDCgov most certainly does need to change their policy position here, I agree. I don’t think that’s quite the same though, but I see the point.
