1/ And, one possibility is certainly that these are just crappy vaccines which give short-lived immunity and which the virus can easily mutate around. Similar, then, to flu vaccines, only worse -- kind of what you might expect given the history of attempted coronavirus vaccines.

2/ The more ominous possibility, also presaged by the history of attempts to develop vaccines against SARS, the nearest relevant target, is that escape mutants disseminated by vaxxed bodies could lead to ADE/vaccine-induced enhancement by any of a variety of related mechanisms. 
3/ The failure of the Warped Speed vaccines has important implications either way. But, the latter case -- even if it's just a "scenario" for now -- should be at the forefront of our minds, commonsensically, as animal models show it could lead to a massive die off in the vaxxed.
4/ Pretty straightforward, right? We're doing unprecedented things on a huge scale with the potential to reduce the US population to pre-Civil War levels and we're being told not to think about downside risks by the very people whose hubris caused the pandemic in the first place.
