1 Some people have had the virus and shown no or very few symptoms, so how are you supposed to know if you're one of those people?
2 If you are one of those people what is the point of having a vaccine for something that does you little harm?
3 Apparently after having the vaccine you have to stay home for three weeks because you can still transmit it. So do the people that have had covid and not the vaccine now not infect other people or is it only people that are vaccinated that don't infect others?

1. you don't unless tested and if there is no reason to be tested you will not know.
2. Because it's not about the individual, it's about stopping the spread.
3. Not 100% in either case but the vaccine does grow the body's immune system and that should kill the virus but timescales are unclear. It is also unclear that people that have had it cannot get it again, a few have most have not and if they have their own body has dealt with it. eg the PM has had it twice, the second time was no where near as bad as the first.
If we knew all the above we wouldn't have so much of a problem. You don't have to stay in for three weeks, after having a vaccine.
Every stick has a right and wrong end.
‘ Apparently after having the vaccine you have to stay home for three weeks because you can still transmit it.’

Where are people getting this crap from?
//You don't have to stay in for three weeks, after having a vaccine.//

No you don't. And once again this has been an example of misleading or confusing information. The vaccine does not provide its full protection (and by that I mean whatever percentage it is said to provide) until three weeks after administration. So you should only stay in for that period if you have been doing so before vaccination (e.g. if you have been "shielding" because of vulnerability). But all those vaccinated must still adhere to the current regulations until they are lifted.
I hope Ed moves this to a more appropriate category...like Body and Soul.
or maybe we need a category for "usual newspaper rubbish"
2 If you are one of those people what is the point of having a vaccine for something that does you little harm?

Just because it is supposedly doing you no harm means nothing, you may pass it on to another person who may die from catching it.
Makes sense, NJ.
Sticky, you can still pass it on after having the vaccine.

Sticky, you can still pass it on after having the vaccine.

I know because that is what I said in my post!
1) from a test
2) so you know to isolate
3) you don't, you continue with social distancing, masks etc as before
2 If you are one of those people what is the point of having a vaccine for something that does you little harm?

a)Because you cant be sure you had it
b) because the antibodies wear off. Some people of caught it a second time
