The thing is that asymptomatic infection has never been shown to be a risk with covid so by stopping symptoms the vaccine will indeed stop the virus spreading.

The trouble is the whole justification for lockdown was that asymptomatic spreading was the main threat.

So they can't say it will stop the virus spreading because then they will have to admit they have wasted a year of everyone's life and tanked the economy for no reason.

They're not stopping the cause of the symptoms, necessarily. They could be just concealing the illness through a band-aid style masking. Which means it would make people super-spreader factories if they take the vax.

How is concealing the illness different to stopping the symptoms?

It's the same thing.

If you don't have a cough then you don't have a cough whether it's stopped or concealed. It's the coughing which spreads the virus.

No it's not. You can take a painkiller to alleviate symptoms and then die from an illness that causes that pain. The pain itself doesn't kill you, it's the underlying disease. It's just a bandaid solution and you are still contagious during this time.

It's a great way to eliminate large populations, if you were so inclined. Hidden super spreaders with their vaccine passports going everywhere to infect everybody without anybody noticing.
