Is This Not Known?

Edit: Wow! I really only thought I’d get maybe 20 replies from PH professionals! I appreciate everyone for explaining your perspective or thoughts! And THANK YOU to all who disagreed but were respectful and tried to explain their reason, research, etc. I’d say a good 98% were respectful, I appreciate that! All the different perspectives helped a lot!

I just read an article that said, “Dr. Deborah Birx Confirms Covid vaccine was not designed to prevent against infection in shocking revelation” SO many people in the comments are freaking out about how they lied and all that. Was it really not known that the whole point of the vaccine was to help people stay out of the hospital and avoid major major sickness? Blows my mind! Maybe it’s because I’m a public health professional that this was just “common sense” to me! I guess I do see people saying the same about the flu vaccine too, so I’m guessing it is because I’m in PH or because of my biology degree. Anyway, just wanted to share with my fellow public health folk!
