Prevents serious illness, yes. Slows transmission……well does it? By how much? The government have been very sure to advise us that vaccinated people can still catch and transmit the virus.

Those who are not vaccinated will carry the virus for a longer period of time and giving it more of a chance to mutate.

Why will they carry it for longer?

SA for example has a 42% vaccination rate and that is now so dunno what it was pre the new variant and look what spawned there.

What appears to be fairly high (I don’t have any data) transmissible strain, that results in a “mild” infection.

As far as I am aware the more people vaccinated the less chance of mutations

Again, I would have agreed but all I’ve been told by U.K. Gov and by pundits on the tv is that the vaccines are very good at preventing serious illness but you can still catch and transmit.

and it only takes one to be as bad as delta dodge the vaccines and kill more and a lot of us will be stuffed then

According to the vaccine manufacturer’s it’s unlikely a strain will evolve that can’t edit a vaccine for.

I won’t be avoiding them, and nor will many many people, therefore they remain a transmission hotbed, but not as bad as shops.
