I would be very interested in your source for saying people who are vaccinated can not spread the Virus.
I'll answer that for him---the source is the CDC. And it is based on 5,318 breakthrough cases among 85 million vaccinated for 0.008%. That number may have been recently revised to 9,000 breakthrough cases among 180 million vaccinated which would be 0.005% or 1 in 20,000 vaccinated people who could get and/or spread COVID. And none of those people died. Pretty good considering 24 people/year die from champagne corks!

So for the 99th time, I wish people would STOP posting that vaccinated individuals can get and spread COVID
