"COVID-19: Common question,
Can the fully vaccinated spread Delta?
CDC: Fully vaccinated people can spread the Delta variant;
infectious disease experts point to variant's characteristics."
THAT'S RIGHT, THE UNVACCINATED CAN STILL MAKE YOU A CARRIER OF THE VIRUS.

The most important point is that being vaccinated means you are far less likely to get seriously ill if infected. As in about 99% of the hospitalized are unvaccinated.

My understanding of it is that, if you are vaccinated you can still both catch and spread all strains of the virus. BUT, IT IS MUCH LESS LIKELY. That however will be very hard to explain to the anti -vac crowd, especially the religious fundamentalist section, since they have been trained for years to think only in terms of absolutes, good and evil, black and white, etc.

It is certainly very doubtful, that many of them have been encouraged to study probability theory, since it does not sit well with faith based teachings and belief systems. Which would not be good for the pastors, casinos, on line conspiracy theory groups, or any of the many others, who set out to exploit those failed by the education system.

@powder Yes but a vaccinated person is less likely to spread the disease, that is the point of probabilities.

@powder Well it is just possible that this virus may be quite different from all other pandemics, and will not fade when when we get near to herd immunity, as polio , smallpox and seasonal flu all do, but somehow I think that such a rare and unexplainable exception is unlikely. Especially as that here in the UK we are begining to see just the effects you would expect as herd immunity gets near.
