Fauci: vaccine only prevents symptoms, doesn’t block the virus

At least four candidates are near the finish line in the U.S. coronavirus vaccine race, but how well they will work remains a question. A key point to note, however, is that the vaccine isn’t an end-all solution to the pandemic. That’s in large part because any inoculations developed now are focused on simply preventing symptoms from arising, rather than blocking out the virus altogether.

He is off the deep end. Of course the vaccine blocks infection. That is the entire point

So what Fauci’s telling us is that if we’re vaccinated covid can still kill us, but we’ll feel good while we’re dying.

This tells me that Fauci and Biden will certainly make a great pair. They can sit in Joe’s basement and tell each other (the same) stories over and over again. And at Easter, they can hide their own Easter Eggs.

This is misleading.

In order to get a vaccine to Emergency Use Approval (EUA) it had to meet certain pre-determined endpoints.

Operation Warp Speed was innovative in many ways. Two of them were making every manufacturer use the SAME endpoints, determined the SAME way, and allowing early termination if there was a statistically significant difference in severe illness or death.

A study to address prevention of infection, or prevention of transmission, would need to go on for much longer, while the death toll climbs.

The question about preventing infection and preventing infectivity hasn’t been answered in the negative - it just can’t be answered at all, right now.

By contrast, the utility of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for the prevention of serious illness or death, at least over four months, is answered by the data in hand.
