Technically speaking, no vaccine prevents infection in the strictest sense. As your immune system isn't going to snipe the virus before it infects a single cell. What vaccines certainly can do is prevent or reduce symptoms. To retarded journalists that means "preventing infection". Alternately, by reducing symptoms to being asymptomatic, early on this was thought to prevent spread. As later learned, the high degree of virulence means it can still spread if asymptomatic as well through close contact (like kissing). This also got reduced by retarded journalists to "preventing infection".

So you can ignore reality by strawmanning science with retarded "science journalism", OR stop lying. In retardo "science journalism" speak it prevents infection. More properly, it reduces symptoms (up to asymptomatic) and therefore can reduce virulence depending on circumstances.

>We are specifically talking about FTL spooky action undetectable communication between 2 particles a trillion miles away apparently with no physical connection between them.

Being able to infer something from what you get in the mail does not entail anything like that. There is not communication trillions of miles away. It is an asinine reification fallacy by the equivalent of "ancient aliens guy" physicists being quoted in the media for clicks/views.

The ordering of vaccine first or infected first would be subject to timing effects the study explicitly states it cannot account for.

You're butthurt the total figure contradicts you and continue to lie by posting a split figure. I mean, you can try, but everyone can see how dishonest that is.
