And here a fact checker is debunking a claim that the vax doesn't reduce transmission, beccause "healthcare experts" say that it does:

"This is false information," Akiko Iwasaki, a professor of immunobiology and molecular, cellular and developmental biology at Yale University, said in an email. "Vaccines provide significant protection from 'getting it' – infection – and 'spreading it' – transmission – even against the delta variant."
Back then, this was one of a number of claims about COVID that the so-called experts got wrong. And when people did ask legit questions, people like you were right there to shout them down. Sometimes asking questions get the facts to come out eventually. I know that's troubling for you to hear, but it's true. |
Not one of these statements came from Pfizer or the FDA, the
only experts involved in the clinical trials and licensing of these vaccines. Lots of people, even so-called "experts", said a lot of things including COVID could be cured by drinking bleach, sticking a lightbulb up your ass, taking Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine or that the vaccine had a microchip in it.
And yes, this did blow up in the wingnut echo chamber just 2 weeks ago and was dutifully parroted by you.
