Very good point. Slow the spread. If you slow it to near zero we are well off.

This reminds me of someone telling me "If even vaccinated people can get Covid what's the point of me getting vaccinated?"

The answer is simple but perhaps subtle and may be hard for some people to understand and accept: To lower the risk.

You can't fully eliminate the risk but you can and should lower the risk as much as is easily possible.

There are 777k Covid deaths in the US now and I wonder why media doesn't tell us that number every day. I guess many people don't want to hear it.
