The Dr from Johns Hopkins said he otehr night that the vaccines have become obsolete. So the people who got the vaccine back in Jan/Feb are really not protected—maybe why there are breakthroughs w/the Delta (and some doctors have said the vaccines caused the Delta strain—don’t know). What I want to know is if the vaccinated are getting COVID then why do places like employers, businesses make the unvaccinated (if they are even allowed to be) wear masks and get weekly COVID testing? Why is this not the case for the vaccinated of it is not effective and they now need boosters? The unvaccinated need protection from the vaccinated just as much since the vaccinated can get COVID and spread it. Pfizer has 30% efficacy. Not a high number.

I'm not sure the vaccines caused the Delta variant, as viruses naturally mutate once the necessary hosts for the original virus starts to dwindle. Good chance those vaccinated, if they didn't have the antibodies already, have reduced the number of hosts for the original virus.

What seems to be a point of discussion is that the vaccines themselves, particularly the two-shot vaccines, might be preventing people from fighting off the delta variant. Usually, the mutations are weaker forms of the original virus, but it's possible the vaccines have left the door wide open for the variants.

And apparently Pzifer will be full FDA approved on Monday even though vaccines usually go through public discussion process and are normally required to have 50%+ efficacy before they are approved. Something doesn’t add up.
