RE: Seychelles, the most-vaccinated place on Earth, is being overwhelmed by Covid-19

pretending the "vaccines" are stopping transmission of SarsCoV2 at this point is ridiculous.

It was said all plain and clearly before the mass vaccination campaigns started, that we do not know weather the vaccines would stop transmission or not - we only knew that the vaccines would stop people from becoming ill. It has also been said over and over again that getting the vaccine is no guarantee against becoming ill. Now at least the statistics from Israel looks very promising - they have mostly been using the Pfizer vaccine. Of course, I have no clue if the numbers are to be trusted or not, but I see no reason not to trust them. Statistics from the UK, where the Astra Zeneca vaccine has been largely used, doesn't look that good at the moment - the curve is flat. But they have started opening up the society, the numbers would probably be growing if it wasn't for the vaccinations.

In Norway the authorities have stopped using Astra Zeneca, as the risk is considered greater than the benefit (for Norwegians in Norway, anyway - considering that the risk of catching Covid is relatively low in Norway, and everyone will get offered the Pfizer vaccine within the next months, it's no point taking a more risky vaccine).
