This is a good, balanced look at what is known and not yet known about the effectiveness of the vaccines, especially related to whether or not vaccinated individuals who contract Covid-19 can still transmit it to others. I appreciate the author taking the time to urge caution, through testimony from scientists, so that those who receive the vaccine don't rush back to their normal pre-pandemic routines. basically, the science/jury is still out on this issue and this article serves as a helpful reminder.

Can you still infect others after you're inoculated? Not too likely, but only time and more experience will tell. Not just a believable take, but one from people who know what they're talking about. And it addresses the question that should be on our minds: as the vaccination rollout proceeds, at what point—if any—will we get enough herd immunity to shut down transmission? Again, no black-and-white answer, as all the information we have isn't solid enough yet.
