You’re not alone. I’m in sales and I don’t suck at it. You know what never works? Calling your customer stupid.

If all of the people who refuse to get the vaccine got the vaccine the mask wearing and social distancing would go away sooner and lock downs would not be as likely to happen again. They are ones who are causing "herd immunity" to be delayed but they're the ones bitching about masks and social distancing the most. They're also the ones least likely to practice mask wearing and social distancing.
The Bethlehem Musik Fest is going on right now and I usually go with my daughter and son-in-law and was really looking forward to it this year. Now I'm thinking that won't happen this weekend with a 9 month old grandson who cannot get vaccinated yet.

US study: Moderna vaccine far better than Pfizer at preventing Delta infection
Mayo Clinic research finds both inoculations have dropped in efficacy, but Pfizer's decline has been much steeper; both remain highly effective against severe illness

A recent "scary" story circulating around the English speaking world is that vaccinated and unvaccinated people are equally contagious. That isn't true from what I can tell. Partially because the amount of time that someone who is vaccinated has enough virus in their nose to be contagious is shorter, meaning by days.
Here's the latest about breakthrough cases and Delta. I expect new info to shoe up weekly, if not more often. That's the flip side of a pandemic with scientists paying attention all over the world because cases are increasing everywhere.

Thanks for the heads up. Here are a couple other related links. The thought that comes to mind is that the study period was Jan-July 2021. The restrictions related to mask usage in MN were quite different in Jan-May compared to Jun-Jul. Does seem to be evidence that Moderna did better during the later period than Pfizer. I'll read the pre-print more carefully later.US study: Moderna vaccine far better than Pfizer at preventing Delta infection

New data suggests Pfizer and Moderna's vaccines may be less effective against Delta
A senior Biden official called the preprint study "a wakeup call."

Comparison of two highly-effective mRNA vaccines for COVID-19 during periods of Alpha and Delta variant prevalence
No, cases are not increasing everywhere...in many countries "cases" (whatever the hell that means anymore) are decreasing as are deaths. What perplexes me most is that we are having a surge in the US in the middle of summer. This goes against the normal respiratory disease pattern. I'm starting to wonder if the vaccines are the main driver of the increased "cases".A recent "scary" story circulating around the English speaking world is that vaccinated and unvaccinated people are equally contagious.

Indeed. There are always outliers in human health...the child who develops cancer, the fitness buff that has a heart attack, etc. However, if we look at this in a comprehensive matter (i.e. big picture), the view is pretty clear. Covid is most harmful for people with comorbidities: obesity, vitamin deficiency, old age, etc. For whatever reason public health officials seem to be afraid to advise the public to get healthy. Instead, they say "take the shot".
