There is conflict, agayne, in the reporting by even the most reputable media outlets on COVID-19. This is from the New York Times on Dec. 19:

...only the Pfizer and Moderna shots, when reinforced by a booster, appear to have initial success at stopping infections...
...
The Pfizer and Moderna shots use the new mRNA technology, which has consistently offered the best protection against infection with every variant. 

How can that be true when on Dec. 28 the U.S., with 62% total population vaxed, overwhelmingly with Pfizer and Moderna, had more new infections than on Jan. 12 when comparatively nobody was vaxed with anything?

Two days later, in the same newspaper:

Some infectious disease experts say it is simply not possible now to stop the virus from spreading...

Preventing infection completely...is “not a winnable battle.”-Dr. Luciana Borio, a former acting chief scientist for the Food and Drug Administration.
