1. William Schaffner:

   This is largely a problem when it comes to severe disease, the disease that requires hospitalization, it's among the unvaccinated. It really is pretty unusual to have a vaccinated person be hospitalized. Most of those people tend to be older and very, very frail. They never were able to respond to the vaccine, and we have the occasional immunocompromised person whose immune system also couldn't respond optimally to the vaccine, so the unvaccinated continue to be the big highway of transmission. The vaccinated, they're little side streets. Let's not get preoccupied with that. We need to get more people vaccinated.

2. Aleah Colón-Alfonso:

   ' I'm not rude, I'm just immunocompromised' was a direct quote of what I wanted to say to every person I socially distanced myself from, the phrase is essentially a shortened version of' I really don't want to be rude -- but I also really don't want to end up on a ventilator !'.

3. Anthony Fauci:

   This should not be confused with the fact that for many immunocompromised people, already a second booster shot, namely a fourth dose of an mRNA, is recommended because of what we know about their poor response to the initial regimen.

4. Amy Edwards:

   Again, even if the vaccine isn't offering full protection it is offering a lot of protection, even when they do not work as well in patients who are immunocompromised, they do provide some protection. That's why it's up to the rest of us to get vaccinated because we want to protect those people, the fragile and the elderly, and everyone else.

5. World Health Organization:

   I'm concerned about sustained transmission because it would suggest that the virus (is) establishing itself and it could move into high risk groups including children, the immunocompromised and pregnant women.
