gollark: It isn't. The actual number of cases is independent of how many you know about.
gollark: I, for one, am using my atoms for nonpaperclip purposes and somewhat need them.
gollark: So you're arguing that the marginal value of a vaccine to everyone isn't great because it does not get substantially closer to eradication?
gollark: And?
gollark: The effectiveness in general scales with how many people have it and how good the vaccines are individually. We want to maximize that. So... it's sensible to reduce one factor because the other is lower?!
