> The unvaccinated are still vectors for the infection of those who cannot be vaccinated, such as the immunocompromised
Is it actually the case that immunocompromised people cannot be vaccinated? The ones that I know have been; as far as I know, the mRNA vaccines by virtue of not being based on live virus are not dangerous to those with weakened immune systems.
Immunocompromised people can safely get the vaccine, but it might not work, leaving them still vulnerable to the virus.
In recent studies something like half of organ transplant recipients did not produce antibodies after being vaccinated, and there have been a few cases where a group of vaccinated transplant recipients caught Covid (e.g. from a vaccinated nurse who had an asymptomatic infection) and had severe symptoms including some deaths.
