mask the vaxxed? for what?

[anatta]

if you are vaxxed you can't pass on an infection in terms of a significant viral load.
You might cause someone to show a positive PCR test, but that is not a health hazard per se

For months and months it was "get vaxxed" -OK I did that -so why are we even contemplating mask mandates?
Next is going to be vaxx passports - WTF do I care if you are vaxed or not - if im vaxxed?

[anatta]

The amount of virus shed in a vaccinated person, should they become infected, is quite low -as their viral load is low

You probably don't, because you're a moron, but you should. Breakthrough infections are possible. They can lead to other breakthrough infections. The viral load for the Delta variant is many times more than that of the original virus. But hey, do whatever you want chump. But at all costs, avoid those Brazilian tourists who are spreading the virus all over Orlando.

illegals are spreading the virus thanks to fucking asshole biden

you fucking moron
"brteakthru infections can lead to other breakthru infections" is a pile of crap

a breakthru is just that - it's uncommon/rare and the data show it happens to people with poor immune systems
which in no way WHATSOEVER leads to other infections of people that are vaxxed
There is no cumulative or additive effects.
In fact a person with a breakthru is likely asymptomstic with a low viral load

stay away from those secret migrant dumps by the military flights from TX

Officials with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said they signed an agreement with Laughlin AFB in Del Rio last month, and have flown more than 700 immigrants from Border Patrol custody to ICE custody since June 29.

The acknowledgment comes after media reports about a leaked email in which an Air Force colonel advises Laughlin military staff to limit releasing details about the flights, which could continue into the coming months.

You most certainly can! A vaccine does not prevent you from contracting the disease. You can either get sick or be asymptomatic, but in either case, you can spread it to others.

Masks do work, especially the medical grade ones. It is utter stupidity to suggest otherwise.

How do you know?? There is no proof of any of that. But there IS proof vaxxed people can carry it.

surgical masks do not seal on the sides and the gaps and the material allow aerosol virus thru

They are effective against spreading droplets - but 90% of the cases are transmitted by aerosol
the wearer gets no protection, but it does stop droplett spread

The medical grade ones that act like a respirator are very effective

you can carry it if vaxxed -yes. The transmission is by the respiratory system . Viral loads are low when vaxxed

abstract
https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1....06.21251283v1
Beyond their substantial protection of individual vaccinees, it is hoped that the COVID-19 vaccines would reduce viral load in breakthrough infections thereby further suppress onward transmission. Here, analyzing positive SARS-CoV-2 test results following inoculation with the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine, we find that the viral load is reduced 4-fold for infections occurring 12-28 days after the first dose of vaccine. These reduced viral loads hint to lower infectiousness, further contributing to vaccine impact on virus spread.

^other studies I've read say the viral load of vaxxed can be reduce 12x to 20x. the concept is the same

https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...08.21251329v1/
estimate suggests that vaccination reduces the viral load by 1.6x to 20x in individuals who are positive for SARS-CoV-2. This estimate might improve after more individuals receive the second dose. Taken together, our findings indicate vaccination is not only important for individual’s protection but can reduce transmission.
