I'm a little perplexed by this, whilst the vaccines offer better than imagined results against hospitalization, severe illness and deaths. The figures for reduction in transmission i believe are (for example Astrazeneca) somewhere between a forty and sixty percent reduction.

Now, up against the old 'kent' variant w is one thing, but compared to the delta/indian variant with it's significantly increased transmission capabilities makes me wonder if this really is a good idea.
