And that they will prevent the appearance of mutated strains.

Or the corollary that the appearance of mutated strains is to be blamed on people being unvaccinated, either because they don’t have vaccines or don’t want them.

This phenomenon of the unvaccinated being “Petri dishes” for mutations occurs in the vaccinated as well. So let’s not spread misinformation based on a complete misunderstanding on how mutations form in the body.

Disagree? No problem, just show me the data that backs up that claim. Certainly not above having my mind changed.

Oh no, not this talking point again.

For the last time, you can spawn mutations regardless of vaccination status.
