is the vaccine beating the variants?

That is up to us if we get enough people to vaccinate then we can manage the variants 

but we are dealing with the American people 

we have way to many anti vaccine morons who are willing to die over politics.

So no i'm not that confident 

I've heard that some of the vaccines don't, yet.  

Yes. They’re up by three at halftime.

Most seem to protect against them.
