As for your second question, that should be obvious if you have any reading comprehension left, whatsoever. Your first clue should be that I quoted a previous post.
To make it completely clear, in case that’s not clear enough, both links were in response to questions posed by cabmando. He asked a couple questions, I gave him links where he might find his answers.

I got the first link to come up by pasting the link into IE. No idea why Firefox won't open it. That's about the vaccination scar. Not important.
Here's the question you were "answering" with your link:

Your link explains a lot about the variants and how they occur- standard biology stuff. It does not explain how vaccinations cause mutation. I think I may not be the one with the reading comprehension problem...
By the way- from your second link:
It is important to remember that what most of these variants have in common is a more effective transmission pattern, which has been associated with a surge in infections in various areas of the world. In addition, some data suggest that increased morbidity and perhaps mortality can be associated with some of the variants. The impact on treatment and vaccines is still being determined, although preliminary data points to minimal impact on vaccine efficacy. Moreover, vaccine manufacturers have significant capabilities in the reformulation of vaccines.
We also know the transmission mode is the same as with the wild-type (unchanged) coronavirus, thus preventing infection should follow a similar public health guidance: facial coverings, social distancing, avoiding gatherings, and practicing appropriate hygiene and sanitation. These simple rules along with increased immunization and appropriate levels of testing continue to be the key pillars in our management of the pandemic.
