"A recently released yearlong study by the Lancet Infectious Diseases medical journal comparing the efficacy of COVID injections has shown that people who have received the COVID shots can be equally as infectious and are just as likely to spread the Delta variant of the virus to contacts in their household as those who have not received the shots.
In the study of 621 people in the U.K. with mild COVID-19 between Sept 13, 2020, and Sept 15, 2021, scientists found that their peak viral load was similar regardless of vaccination status. The analysis also found that 25 percent of vaccinated household contacts still contracted the virus, while 38 percent of those who had not taken the shots became infected.
In fact, the researchers noted, “Fully vaccinated individuals with breakthrough infections have peak viral load similar to unvaccinated cases and can efficiently transmit infection in household settings, including to fully vaccinated contacts.” "

@tanjaostman I'm dumbfounded that it needs stating and people still talk about how the vaccine stops them spreading covid
The vaccine was never designed for that, and never could do that, never can do that and never will be able to do that
We had a tradesman in the house literally the other day...told us he'd been vaccinated so couldn't spread the virus...
I was so baffled by the stupidity of his belief, I couldnt bother responding
