Not to be a Debbie Downer, but do we know that? My understanding is that we only know the currently approved vaccines (eventually) teach your body how to combat the virus' spike protein; no one knows whether it'll cut down on asymptomatic spreading, and the two approved vaccines are using a method never used before. AstraZeneca says their data shows a decrease in transmission for their own vaccine, but their results are (apparently) screwed up, so no one really has a clue how reliable their data is. |
Good points. Just tried to take some edge off. However it is safe to assume that the first vaccines will at least reduce the viral load with later vaccines being even more focused on it. First it's gonna be important that people actually take the vaccine and spreading doubt about it doesn't help that.

Depends how competent the leader is. The last authoritarian has been voted out partly because of the virus.

Your understanding is correct. Not sure why vivster thinks otherwise when the German news keeps repeating this same thing ad nauseum. |
Because vivster doesn't consume German news. Wouldn't even have known that there is gonna be a lockdown if someone hadn't told me personally.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
