But in the absence of anything better that can easily be administered very cheaply to millions a day then the current vaccine will have to do. The new pills hold some promise too! YES! This is what I've been saying for several months. FULLY Vaccinated was 91-95% *PROVEN* effective against the *ORIGINAL* Wuhan strain in early 2021. But since then the virus has mutated very significantly TWICE! So of course the vaccine won't be near as effective! It wasn't developed against Omicron! NOBODY IN AMERICA IS FULLY VACCINATED AGAINST DELTA or OMICRON, because vaccines developed specifically to battle Delta or Omicron do not exist yet, and might never. But the idiots still don't understand this.
And The first idiot was Joe Biden who said in late July you won't get covid or be hospitalized right after the UK says 40% I the hospital are vaccinated!!!
Psaki showing charts of 99% are the unvaccinated using Wahun Strain Data as the DELTA kills both unvaxed and vaxed.
