My name is Waqar Jamil, and I am a Molecular Genetic Technologist who would like to share some key points regarding why vaccination and masking must be taken more seriously.
The Canadian Medical Association Journal says their computer models replicating mixing of unvaccinated people into the broader Covid-vaccinated public have clearly demonstrated that the presence of EVEN ONE infectious unvaccinated individual in the company of the vaccinated will cause breakthrough infections in the vaccinated.

This is because many of the first-gen vaccines do not stop the person-to-person spread of the virus, and many of the first-gen vaccines have short durability. This shortcoming must be accounted for in the proper deployment of the vaccine.
Therefore it is obligatory to separate the vaccinated and unvaccinated until vaccination ubiquitously becomes law, as it already is with most other common vaccines. For example, vaccines are required for children to attend school. Similarly vaccines are required to get a job. Covid-vaccines will eventually be added to the list.
Proof of vaccination must be required by law, because mixing unvaccinated people with vaccinated people will spread Covid among both groups, the vaccinated with breakthrough infections and the unvaccinated with infections. It is important to educate everyone about this aspect of the first-gen vaccines, so that vaccinated and unvaccinated people are not mixing.
This is currently not being properly implemented which is why it is so essential to spread this knowledge, otherwise, vaccination will be of little use, other than a mitigant against the severity of the disease.
Social separatism is absolutely essential during this phase when there are still people who remain unvaccinated or their booster has lapsed, exposing them and everyone around them, in both cases. Someone who has a lapsed vaccination, or is unvaccinated, is going to cause breakthrough infections in the vaccinated. This means that the vaccinated can only safely be around other vaccinated people. Therefore such separatism must be enforced for public health.
It is important to share this message with the public before there is more spread. It's also important to remind people that the vaccines do wear off, so staying vaccinated is important, but over-vaccination can cause immune exhaustion, so staying on schedule is important with Covid vaccinations.
Imperial College London showed in one long running study that initially 11% were re-infection. After Omicron that jumped up to over 2/3, meaning that 2/3 of the people who were showing up with Omicron, were there before when they had Delta. So if that is the case, how good could natural immunity possibly be? Many people may boast that because they have already had the disease, they do not feel the need to vaccinate, but how good could the natural immunity be, or perhaps how durable could it be, if each subsequent variant is producing higher rates of re-infection? The truth is that the immunity that is generated from vaccination is often more robust. Talk to your doctor about possibly changing the type of vaccine on your next boost to get a more robust defense, as some are doing.
It's an RNA virus that rapidly mutates so immunity must be kept up. It's as simple as that. However, again, the purpose of this article is to re-iterate that the unvaccinated must not be allowed to mix with the vaccinated, and measures to assure this is enforced must be in place.
This is a geronticide if left unabated. It is animalistic to assume otherwise. It is clear that Covid causes long term brain damage, even in mild cases, pre-term birth, low birth weight, birth defects and miscarriages.

Such a virus cannot possible be taken lightly by anyone who has any sense of morality. It is immoral to downplay this virus and allow more suffering to spread, and therefore when you find that Covid is being downplayed, you must take corrective action.
This study showed that student who do not mask, are 3.6 times more likely to take the virus home and cause secondary infections.
Obviously, entire households are contracting the virus, so it must be taken much more seriously.
