If you keep reading about it you will understand what I am trying to tell you. Here is another article and I copy and pasted the important part again for you.

The creation of a vaccine for any new virus could also cause additional mutations.
“Let’s explain this concept a little further. Any virus will keep trying to change, so it can continue to spread. With all vaccines, the more quickly people get vaccinated the better. The slower vaccination happens, the higher the chance of having mutations in the virus and the appearance of more variants. And, as we are seeing with the delta variant, the more the virus can spread in the community.
In order to keep viruses in check, everyone must do their part by getting vaccinated, and scientists must work together around the world to track emerging variants.”

I actually posted that article yesterday.
