Do you not understand what probabilities are?

A vaccine does not eliminate your chances of getting some disease, it reduces the probabilities.

How many times does this have to be explained?

He got vaccinated in January? Your uncle probably got exposed to a variant.

I hope your uncle gets well soon.

The best performing vaccines are around 95 percent effective, and of those who do have what's known as the "breakthrough" cases and still get the virus, their cases are almost always asymptomatic to mild, so I hope that's the case in your uncle's case.

The idea of course is by vaccinating as many people as quickly as possible, the virus runs out of vectors to infect and mutations to form and eventually dies down.

I am sorry to have to tell you this but NONE of the vaccines prevent COVID. Only supposedly serious symptoms.

What does your uncle do that got him vaccinated at 54 years old with a vaccine months ago? I am 69 years old and got my vaccine months ago.
