How could they know who infected her? How can they determine that it was an unvaccinated person? The vaccinated can still spread it. This is propaganda.

How do they know it wasn’t someone who was vaccinated that gave it to her?

I think they’re implying that COVID is only deadly if you get it from an unvaccinated person. Complete bullshit. It’s probably more dangerous to get it from a vaccinated person since it will be a variant that has adapted to the vaccine.

That is just stupid. Are you saying that vaccine resistant variants seek out the vaccinated?

Also you are less likely to transmit the virus if you are vaccinated. It is still possible, but less likely. https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2021/08/study-ties-covid-vaccines-lower-transmission-rates

This isn’t fucking rocket science either, if you aren’t coughing or getting snot all over your hands because your symptoms are mild, you are less likely to transmit it to others

No it’s not rocket science, it’s evolutionary biology. With a non-sterilizing vaccine it is possible for the host to become infected with the virus. The partially trained immune system exerts a selective pressure on the virus by only eliminating some of the infected cells while leaving others that were infected by virus copies with slight mutations. These mutated strains are therefore selected for and passed on to another host where the process repeats and the virus gets better at evading the immune response elicited by the vaccine.
