You seem confused. The vaccine does prevent infection to oneself (in 95% of cases). As to whether it prevents you from passing on the virus to unvaccinated people - well that's still being researched so we don't know whether it does or doesn't.

French cheese can be much stinkier than Danish cheese. Sometimes to the point where you have to chain it down!

Yes, but a substantial amount of that trade is via the land borders with Canada & Mexico, which are essentially still closed. Getting those 2 countries vaccinated will be of financial benefit to the US without a doubt.

Finding a vaccine for the "Common Cold" is not that simple. The common cold is a generic term we all use. It is **not** a *single virus*, but a term we use when we get certain symptoms caused by different rhinovirus or adenovirus strains . There are over 200 variants of the "common cold" in circulation at any one time. COVID is a **specific virus** so all we have to do is find the **specific key** (vaccine) to unlock it. Since there are so many variants of the "Common Cold" we need to develop the equivalent of a **master key** to unlock it. Make sense now?

Yes, bad reporting with incomplete context. The *fully vaccinated protection* refers to the individual who has been vaccinated. Dahl-Regis' statement regarding *research still going on*, refers to transmission of the virus by those who have been vaccinated. Two very different things. The main article in today's Tribune states it correctly

Good point. His non-vaccinated customers could still leave with their COVID dessert, served up by other COVID carrying customers.

But like Moncur said to you, it doesn't have to be about politics. Let it be Birdie, and try and enjoy a non-political life - who knows you might enjoy it !
