The Conversation: No, vaccinated people are not ‘just as infectious’ as unvaccinated people if they get COVID
Recent studies have shown similar peak viral loads in vaccinated people who contract COVID-19 disease compared with unvaccinated people who contract COVID, raising questions around the impact that vaccination has on preventing transmission.
This article discusses the findings from recent studies on viral load and further explores the impact that vaccination has on those who experience breakthrough disease. It specifically highlights how vaccinated individuals with breakthrough disease can clear the virus faster, have lower levels of the virus overall, and therefore are less contagious.

The Conversation: COVID vaccines for 5 to 11 year old’s are inching closer. Here’s what we know so far
This week, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorised the provisional use of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine in children between the age of 5 to 11 years. Children will receive two doses of the vaccine, at a reduced dose (one-third of the adult dose) administered approximately three weeks apart.
Pfizer has submitted a partial application to Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and is currently on track to supply the remaining data over the next two weeks. Once approved, the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisations (ATAGI) will advise the government on timing the rollout.
Current data suggests a clear advantage to immunising children against COVID-19, including protecting them from severe complications associated with the Delta variant, and helping to minimise the spread of the virus amongst the more vulnerable in the community.
