    Looking for actual discussion here, not trying to downplay the vaccine or anything

    What is the goal at this point? Initially it was stop the spread. Obviously we want to keep as many people from dying as possible. But to completely eradicate cases seems unlikely at this point. I’ve heard discussions that we need everyone to get vaccinated to avoid mutations in the virus, though from what I’ve read it seems the normal life cycle of a virus is to mutate into less lethal, but more contagious, viruses.

    I feel like there needs to be a concentrated effort to educate people on what that goal is.

    At this point, only 14% of the truly at risk crowd (elderly) is not vaccinated. The 40% of the country that’s not vaccinated is overwhelmingly young, with their worst death rates being 1.5% of confirmed cases. How many of those unvaccinated have already had the virus is a bit of a mystery. I would assume also that the people who are especially at risk within those age groups are of those getting vaccinated (underlying health issues).

    Like, what is the impact of the case numbers climbing if the death rate is greatly reduced? Are mutations the main concern at this point?

    Got some other questions I’d like to ask to some educated people that I’ve tried getting answers to but can’t seem to find much.

    If a person is vaccinated and catches the virus, they are a lot less likely to have serious symptoms, be hospitalized, or die, and the stats back that up. But does it reduce their ability to spread the virus? If they are asymptomatic, would they still be spreading it? And also, do we know that the vaccine actually helps to prevent infection, or are infection rates lower among the vaccinated because they are less likely to develop symptoms, therefore less likely to get tested?

    The concern there being, if vaccinated people can still catch and spread it as much as unvaccinated people, then they would be a lot more likely to walk around spreading it and not know, which would still result in mutations, right?

    Only one shot for me bucko

    Wait I don’t get it, what’s the point of you getting one then?

    If you’re not getting one to fulfill a requirement by your employer or to go places (you’d need a vaccine card for that) and you’re not doing it for your own health (getting only one is pointless for that), then why even do it?

    The vaccinated people get less sick so that means less symptoms and less viral load, which means less transmissibility. I would be highly surprised once enough data is collected that this isn’t the case.

    The problem with any of those who don’t want the vaccine is there is absolutely not a single legitimate reason not to, if you have any then let me know because I have not heard a single reason that isn’t easily debunked with science or logic. I am absolutely open to discussion.

    Nah but to answer your question I think the current round of restrictions stem from all the unvaccinated people getting hospitalized and filling up the hospitals.

    No one really knows what the end goal is at this point as most of the state govts. sans the Red states are just looking towards Fauci and the CDC for guidance.

    I’m not opposed to the vaccine, I haven’t gotten it because I thought I had to wait 3 months after having COVID (which apparently isn’t the case), and I just got out of my 3 month window and have worked pretty much every day since lol. But I intend to get it, I agree that most of the anti vaccine people are running on conspiracies.

    I’m just wondering why we need the remaining 40% of people to get vaccinated, when ultimately the most at risk are almost completely taken care of, and most of the people who haven’t gotten it at this point seem unlikely to get it.

    I guess I’ve seen a lot of “you’re a s***ty person if you aren’t vaccinated” kind of discussions, where it seems like the vaccine really only protects yourself rather than others. So if it does lead to deadlier strains and mutations then that would justify that line of thinking.

    Doing some more reading and it looks like studies are finding the viral load is lower and makes the virus less transmissible. Makes sense
