The vaccines work against 117. The problem is that Texas, for example, only has 13% of people with at least one shot so far so inviting a much more infectious variant to run rampant in whatever is left of the naive population is flatly gambling with peoples lives.
Ah, okay... thank you. It looks like I might have been mixing up my variants. From the CDC's website, it appears that the vaccine is most likely just as effective against the B.1.1.7 variant, but there's a little worry about the P.1 and B.1.351 variants.
