If it prevents you from getting sick, why are you worried that an unvaccinated person will infect you. You’re vaccinated, no worries

Well aware, but you said you don’t get sick, so what’s the problem.

This virus isn’t going away for a long time. If the vaccine doesn’t stop anybody from getting it, then even if everybody is vaccinated, it is still going to propagate through society.

Not necessarily. The more virus in the population increases the chances for more deadly mutations.

Didn’t we just establish that the vaccine doesn’t stop you from getting the virus? So it shouldn’t be shrinking that footprint.

The vaccine has shown to reduce the amount of virus in the population even if it's not 100%.

I don't think I ever said that I or someone else won't get sick. If you are vaccinated and get sick you're less likely to get seriously feel from it. We're lucky with the Delta variant that if you're vaccinated you're less likely to be seriously ill. We don't know what will happen with the next variant.
