I meant neither term actually applies literally to Covid vaccinations. Biological advantage has a specific, limited meaning, not connected to vaccination in the slightest .
Virtue signaling is crowing in public about how you're making superior choices to others. Very few, if any people get vaccinated for that purpose!
So, if I'm following correctly the implication with 90% "virtue signaling" is that the vaccines aren't really effective. That's not true in a minor way for preventing infection and egregiously wrong for preventing serious disease.
Yes, I saw that about UK and completely support moving in that direction. "Vax and chill".
