I’m not the one spreading bullshit to make myself feel better about a fucking security blanket.

You're literally doing that with antivaxxing. Holy projection batman.

I think I probably agree with you about the efficacy of the vaccine, but this is a terrible reply to someone who actually provided you some kind of argument.

No, I'm really not.

I started to read that article but it was a lot of charged language, and then when it got to the point about transmission it made the typical argument that they weren't tested to see if they stopped transmission (the primary goal of the vaccination was to decrease hospitalization and death, so they didn't test for this). I then realized how long the article was and lost interest. Can you quote the part of the article where they actually make the claim that it did not lower transmission?

Here's a link to an actual study that claims it reduced transmission.
