Your earlier comment: "Part of the benefit of vaccination is that it prevents spread..."

This comment: "The fact it continues to spread..."

You can't have both. Which is it?

You 100% can. It is continuing to spread, but more slowly, and less effectively thanks to vaccination. It's not binary. Vaccinations are 70-95% effective, which means that somewhere between 5 and 30 people in any group of 100 may still catch the disease. Those that do will be less sick.

We've had vaccines since 1798, this isn't rocket surgery.
