    The vaccinated are far less likely to spread the virus, because they’re far less to be infected by the virus. It’s that simple.
    — Xtrix

    Rofl! It's already been shown the virus load is the same for vaccinated same vaccinated.
    MondoR

    As an anti-vaxxer, I know there’s a mental block to this stuff, but I’ll repeat it again for anyone else listening: since the vaccines protect against the virus extremely well, the vaccinated do not spread the virus as much as the unvaccinated. Not even close.

    In breakthrough cases, the evidence is still out about whether the vaccinated who get infected have the same viral loads as the unvaccinated who get infected. But there’s evidence to suggest they don’t.

    Let’s try this in numbered form:

    (1) If vaccines protect against COVID infections and
    (2) you cannot transit COVID if you’re not infected, then
    (3) who is more likely to spread COVID? The vaccinated or the unvaccinated?

    Scientists do not yet know whether COVID-19 vaccinations will reduce transmission because this was not tested in the trials (here, here). Instead, they found candidate vaccines were able to prevent symptomatic and severe effects of COVID-19 (here), meaning future research would need to take this further (here). For instance, it would need to look deeper into how the vaccine works in the body – whether it prevents an individual getting infected altogether, or whether it simply stops a person becoming sick. With the latter, this could mean the virus continues to replicate in the nose and throat, and is still able to spread (here).https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-transmission-idUSKBN29N1UH

    Ha, those idiot 'scientists'. Fancy them not even being able to understand your logic, you must be some kind of genius...

    From the article you cite:

    “ verdict: Missing context. There is no conclusive evidence to claim COVID-19 vaccines do not prevent people spreading the disease. Scientists are not yet sure of how the vaccine affects transmission – and this is currently undergoing research. People are still required to follow restrictions even after vaccination to account for this uncertainty.“

    This would seem to make the (1) claim currently unsupported, yes. Until you realize that this article was last updated 8 months ago, and is originally from January.

    But keep fighting the good fight, Isaac.

    Take a look at this for something more recent:

    Woah, so the way vaccines interact with viruses has changed since January! Those damn biological facts, they just won't stay the same from one minute to the next will they?

    Yes, there's been some experiments which tentatively show the vaccine might reduce transmission. No, it's not via the playschool version of the mechanism you claimed was so 'obvious'.

    No, there has been more research since January, which the article itself said was needed.

    But keep trying.
