I think the term "pandemic of the unvaccinated" is commonly misunderstood.

What most people think it means is a pandemic that only ravages and evolves among the unvaccinated. This is not what it means however.

What "pandemic of the unvaccinated" means instead is that the unvaccinated population is the key driver for the ongoing spread of the virus. The pandemic however will still infect all people be carried around by all people and evolve in all people. The unvaccinated are just the fuel that starts the fire. If you vaccinate everybody quick and early you can have it like e.g. Israel.




I got the virus from my vaccinated girlfriend. But now that we recovered, I am much less of a possible spreader than only vaccinated people
