@notdred The thing is, I assume people who are really determined to get a booster will get one anyway, especially since the criteria of "underlying medical conditions" based on "individual benefit and risk" is both broad and self-attested. — PolitiTweet.org

@notdred Was watching the hearing and some members were leaning into the idea that vaccines are mostly about the *direct* benefit of protecting oneself from severe disease & less about transmission/protecting others. It was a nuanced discussion but still seems like a semi- paradigm shift. — PolitiTweet.org

@notdred @ptbrennan11 The other one I don't get is when people say "well, it might only provide high protection against infection/transmission for a few months". Even if that were true⁠—and it may not be⁠—curbing a winter Delta wave while we're still trying more folks vaccinated could be worthwhile. — PolitiTweet.org
