It's good that it stops severe illness and should offer a lot of peace of mind to vaccinated people in the short term, but longer term, if the vaccines only stop severe illness it's frankly a disaster.

Yes I have been thinking this too tbh. There will eventually be a varient that is totally vaccine resistant. Isn't something like that how the likes of MRSA and such started..and why doctors are reluctant to prescribe antibitotics, as all that will happen with overuse, is that it will mutate to find ways around the medication?
We realy need a vaccine that stops you getting it fullstop.
That said, they are doing the best with what they can.
