I'm putting something out here based purely on common sense - would love to hear everybody's thoughts on why I might be right or wrong. :-)
All the info in today's ticker suggests that mutations/escape variants caused by the vaccines will mostly be based on changes in the S part, since that is what the vaxxes are focusing on.
I.e. unvaxxed people with a regular immune system should not be worse off if they get infected with one of those escaped mutations, since the N part should still be sufficiently similar for our immune system to effectively deal with the new variant and then have some sound immunity.
(Yes, I know there are cases of 'shit happens' where otherwise healthy people get severely sick, but let's ignore these for a second - we could as well be hit by a bus tomorrow, couldn't we?)
So, effectively, these supposed new variants might or might not make the vaxxed people more sick, but they shouldn't be much of a change for unvaxxed people in terms of danger.
Am I getting this right?
