Great definition. That you used for one thing (infections) but not for another (deaths).
Newsflash - looking up a word in the dictionary doesn’t make you smart.
Why are you deleting the responses to this where I further correct and embarrass you
“Vaccines Prevent Covid”…Incorrect statement, obviously based on the definition of the word above
And if you are talking about deaths
A. You should have said it
B. It is not correct…You should say “helps prevent”…“curbs”…“reduces”
Got it?
Class is dismissed idiot
I deleted responses that don’t have a point.
Congratulations on being able to look up the definition of a word you used wrong.
Proud of you.
The point was continuing to correct you
You are destroyed int his argument…you used “prevent” incorrectly, the definition above clearly shows this
I never used the word, moron. You did.
Then I handed your ass to you when you tried to say it applies to infections and not deaths.
Revisionist history from the board bratty cunt
You changed the story, not me. I just pointed out another in a long line of uneducated comments by you.
Story been same since beginning cunt…
Pure comedy this cunt keeps drawing this out…Hold that L and move on moron
It’s called the English language
It is called the English language.
And you know very few words or meanings in the English language.
Especially the word “prevention.”
I just realized calling you a cockroach is insulting to cockroaches.
You can tell a man has zero balls when they can’t admit they’re wrong.
It’s not incorrect, they just can’t prevent 100%. And with newer strains, their prevention is much weaker. (But still worthwhile.)
No…Please refer to the definition above. Thanks.
I used the word properly. Vaccines can prevent some infections, but they can’t prevent all of them.
Now he adds the word “some”…As you morons continue to further my point.
Try to say it without adding words…Thought so
And no it never “prevented” any of them…Worked better against some than the more recent variants
Come on Skeeter… It’s like a fourth quarter prevent defense. You know you call it a prevent but it can get through.
Let’s start calling the vaccine “the Donofrio “
Lol
Now he adds the word “moron.”
Dude, when people talk, they use words. Keep up.
Yes, it did prevent some of them.
Some changes the initial statement clearly
Of course it did. “Some” is a qualifier.
They have to back the claim down because they know the vaccine is not very good at stopping transmission. It’s just not. Everyone knows that.
The word “prevent” was not a good word to use.
Curtail
Minimize
Reduce
Cut down
Decrease
Lessen
Diminish
All of these would have been much more defensible terms. So now they need to get to this 
by using qualifiers on “prevent.”
Tell Qkeeter that. He used the word.
I love how y’all are going after a vaccine that has clearly saved lives. It’s also odd that y’all credit Trump for getting the vaccine out so quickly………very odd spot to be in.
Hard to know how many lives it’s saved. I honestly don’t know. Don’t care who was responsible for the vaccine either.
