protection against infections,” Pfizer CEO Bourla said. “But then two months later, what used to be very strong in hospitalization also went down. And I think this is what everybody’s worried about.”
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky: “Our vaccines are working exceptionally well … but what they can’t do anymore is prevent transmission.”
“Omicron, with its extraordinary, unprecedented degree of efficiency of transmissibility, will ultimately find just about everybody,” Dr. Anthony Fauci told J. Stephen Morrison, senior vice president of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. “Those who have been vaccinated … and boosted would get exposed. Some, maybe a lot of them, will get infected but will very likely, with some exceptions, do reasonably well in the sense of not having hospitalization and death.”
It's time to stop saying that the experimental vaccines help stop transmission, especially with regards to Omicron, which is the dominant strain.
