there is no herd immunity against covid without a sterilizing vaccine

Fair point. Hopefully spray vaccine and/or sterilizing vaccine will arrive one day. Anyway, a good vaccine coverage is important, and current vaccine are already effective at preventing illness/death.

they don't prevent it, they make it less likely. which is still good obviously, but long covid for vaccinated people is a massive issue. vaccinated individuals are more likely to believe the vaccine makes them immune and therefore don't need to mask.
