doesn't it stand to reason that if a vaccine reduces the incidence of people becoming infected, then that means there are fewer people to transmit the virus to others?

There is a limit to the number of context-free graphs that can be forgiven, though.

Can't recall if I mentioned it but the wife got it the first week of November. We isolated from one another at home, I slept on the couch for a week until she tested negative. Her symptoms were mild, just one day where she went back to bed at noon. I never got it.

this is one major thing that societies are wrestling with at the minute i think. now that we've got a good grip of how social media / the internet works, how do we weigh up and work out where the lines should be on what you can and can't say, who should be able to draw those lines, and what role major platforms should play.

the answers aren't at all clear to me personally, including what should have been done in the covid years. i'd probably lean towards letting states make some kinds of decisions about what information/misinformation can be published online myself.
