Leaving aside the linked study is looking at vaccine effectiveness WRT infection rather than transmission, ... Low effectiveness still agrees with the point made above about reducing chances of spread and transmission. A reduction is still a reduction, even if is not a 100% total and full stop. | ||

> A reduction is still a reduction, even if is not a 100% total and full stop The advice I was given from our family doctor was that having had an utterly mild case of (actual) Covid, as I had (two separate times!), during the pandemic, was significantly better in protecting against both future infection - and subsequent transmission - than any protection I could have gained by vaccination. YMMV. I suspect this is down to those who have had mild Covid pre-vaccination and those who have not. Some of us didn't even know we had had Covid until afterwards, others think the vaccine saved them from an untimely death/hospitalisation. | ||
