It does eliminate transmission because it greatly reduces the chance of being infected in the first place.
If someone who is vaccinated does get infected then the viral load is similar but the sickness is generally not as severe and the virus tends to clear the body faster thus reducing the time spent being a disease vector.

So the FDA should just approve any drug? Willy nilly. Caveat emptor.
It’s certainly is the government job to prevent death of its citizens if possible.
Loss of tax money.

Now the question becomes, which is the lessor of the evils, the treatment or the virus? Selecting from the options to achieve the desired goal is and has been the question all along but notice, there is a serious lack of expertise regarding this, from our so called experts.

There has been a handful of death that can be attributed to the vaccine.
It is a very very small group.
The much larger group is people who have died from the virus.

Incorrect. One of the attributes of the vaccine is reduced severity and I believe infectious time. The latter is less relevant than it should be because of the CDC acceptance of a symptom-based quarantine release strategy.
Reduced severity is the major attribute in my opinion.

Excellent point.
I am good with the experiment…so be it.
Why is that point so hard to understand.
Prevention beats treatment.

Self medicating is the cause here. Someone overdosing their own self prescribed drug is hardly evidence that it is not effective
fascinating. but only 2 were mentioned. not thousands. see the games played with statistics? just like on your news ‘tainments
i asked you question earlier.

I’m not following you…
Treating sick people means they are infected, and have already had a chance to spread the virus.
Vaccinating protects some completely from infection, thus of course limiting transmission, as well as limiting and shortening any infection, which also helps to slow spread.

By the time you test positive, you likely have spread the virus already.
By the time you test positive for antibodies, you likely have spread the virus already.

Now just think of what the word eliminate means?
THE NEW DATA SAYS THAT A FULLY VACCINATED PERSON WHO EXPERIENCES A BREAKTHROUGH INFECTION CAN SPREAD THE VIRUS JUST AS MUCH AS AN UNVACCINATED PERSON. IS THIS ONLY FOR SYMPTOMATIC INFECTIONS?
