The last 4 items (number 1-4) were aimed at ard's very aggressive response not you BCred. The comment about personal attacks is sarcasm, again aimed at ard.
"The risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection in fully vaccinated people cannot be completely eliminated as long as there is continued community transmission of the virus. Early data suggest infections in fully vaccinated persons are more commonly observed with the Delta variant than with other SARS-CoV-2 variants. However, data show fully vaccinated persons are less likely than unvaccinated persons to acquire SARS-CoV-2, and infections with the Delta variant in fully vaccinated persons are associated with less severe clinical outcomes.
Infections with the Delta variant in vaccinated persons potentially have reduced transmissibility than infections in unvaccinated persons, although additional studies are needed."

There are literally thousands of medicines recalled every year that carry FDA approvals because new studies are finding that they are directly linked to cancer. And all of these were deemed safe by the scientists when they hit the market, even with extensive laboratory research so excuse me for not trusting the FDA and the government that backs it.
The vaccine doesn't stop one from getting COVID or transmitting it to others so its moot to say "The vaccine does reduce transmission rates. If one doesn't have COVID they can't infect others."
Let me pose this question: If you are vaccinated and I am as well, I contract the virus and pass it to you, what is the outcome for you?
Similarly: If you are vaccinated and I am NOT, I contract the virus and pass it to you, with is the outcome for you?
