Hey asswipe. I actually found data showing the opposite.
The vaxxed are creating new strains.
Oddball
Vaccination alone won't stop the rise of new variants and in fact could push the evolution of strains that evade their protection, researchers warned Friday.

Your must trusted news source. Chew on that.
Did you read it? They said people need to wear masks and take other steps to prevent spread until almost everyone in a population has been vaccinated.
- Of the infections, 74% occurred in fully vaccinated people who had one of the three FDA-emergency approved vaccines and 80% had symptoms
- Only four of the vaccinated people were hospitalized, two of whom had underlying conditions, and there were no deaths
However, there were just four hospitalizations and no fatalities among the fully vaccinated group, showing that the vaccines are very effective against severe disease and death.
For the
report, the team looked at COVID-19 cases linked to summer events and large gatherings in Provincetown, on Massachusetts's Cape Cod, between July 3 and July 17.
Thousands of residents and tourists flocked to the summer town for Independence Day celebrations as well as family vacations, resulting in crowded bars, restaurants, rental homes and more.
On July 10, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health began receiving reports of an increased number of cases linked to the county.
Super spreader events
'The masking recommendation was updated to ensure the vaccinated public would not unknowingly transmit virus to others, including their unvaccinated or immunocompromised loved ones.'
The documents claim the Delta variant has an R0, or is as infectious, as chickenpox or Ebola and that an infected person can spread the virus to eight or nine other people.
Meanwhile, the original strain that originated in Wuhan, China, could be passed on two or three others, making it as transmissible as the common cold.
'When you think about diseases that have an R0 of eight or nine - there aren't that many,' Walensky told
CNN on Thursday.
'I think people need to understand that we're not crying wolf here. This is serious.'
The CDC's mask guidance states that masks only need to be worn in counties with 'substantial' or 'high' transmission of the virus.
As of Friday, 73.8 percent of counties fall into one of these two categories, up from 69.3 percent the week before.
The CDC was criticized this week for updating the mask guidance without detailing the science behind it.
'Yes, CDC should release all data in a timely manner,' Dr Ali Mokdad, an epidemiologist with the University of Washington's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, told DailyMail.com on Thursday.
'In my opinion, it is criminal to sit on data during a pandemic.'
A new CDC report on Friday that fully vaccinated Americans can contract the Indian 'Delta' Covid variant more easily but are at a very low risk of severe disease, hospitalization or death.
