And how is it at preventing serious illness? The time of not ever getting infected has came and passed. Covid is here to stay and it is likely almost everyone will eventually come in contact with it. The goal should be too prevent serious illness and death as much as possible without lockdowns and destroying economies. There will always be covid deaths, we just have to decide how many deaths are acceptable. If people choose not to get vaccinated that is on them just as it is with the elderly that don't get the flu vaccine.

Hopefully they don't do that here until they have offered the vaccine to everyone. Society can't function if only the retired and sickly can go about daily life. You wouldn't even be able to order groceries online...unless the government going to force the elderly out of retirement and the sickly out of bed to go shopping for everyone else. I imagine everyone in lapu lapu is going to be forced to go grocery shopping in Cebu, which will make groceries store there even more crowded, decreasing the ability to social distance and increasing the chance of catching covid.

What "they" don't bother to tell us all is the Delta variant is much more communicable, but considerably weaker than the original virus. 1 in 1000 die from it.
