Dr. Fauci explained why the mask recommendation on vaccinated people was made on Chris Hayes [View all]

Unlike the other strains, which are insignificant in the nasal passages of vaccinated people, the delta strain can remain in the nasal passages of vaccinated people, which won’t likely infect the vaccinated, but be transmitted to the non-vaccinated

I hope this is reported by the press, to shut jackasses like rand Paul’s misinformation up

Post three in this thread explained it clearer:


What he said is that if you are vaccinated and get a breakthrough infection you have enough viral load to pass it on unvaccinated people.

He did not say that if you are vaccinated you can infect other people, only if you have gotten a breakthrough infection.

Now of course since some of these people might be asymptomatic, it is still very worrisome.”
