Delta appears to be breaking through vaccines at a higher rate than what we are being told.
We have groups of people being infected, despite being fully vaxxed, like TX democrats that flew to DC.
Six of them now have covid.
I would like to see more recent studies for June/July on what the numbers are. Don't start counting in December, almost nobody was vaccinated back then.

The breakthrough rate with that vaccinated group of Texas legislators DemocraticPatriot Jul 2021 #21

no vaccine has a 95% efficacy rate against Delta in terms of preventing infection Celerity Jul 2021 #23

I don't think that was CDC's goal either it was hospitalizations and deaths the vax wasn't uponit7771 Jul 2021 #27

RIGHT !!! I don't know why "breakthrough" got into the conversation looking at the fact the vaxes uponit7771 Jul 2021 #28

Breakthrough should be considered serious cases and deaths mucifer Jul 2021 #31

Most vaccines save a few have breakthrough cases I don't know why covet cases are being treated diff uponit7771 Jul 2021 #38

That tracks BETTER than what's expected, 5100 cases out of nearly 5 million vaccinated in 7 months uponit7771 Jul 2021 #29

Breakthrough infections are not a tiny percentage. LisaL Jul 2021 #25

CDC isn't tracking breakthrough in the US because vax wasn't intended to be a preventative IINM. uponit7771 Jul 2021 #30

That's just not true. LisaL Jul 2021 #33

Then the flu vaccine is worthless using that logic seeing its efficacy at prevention is only 50% on uponit7771 Jul 2021 #34

Nobody sets up to create a vaccine that doesn't prevent infection. LisaL Jul 2021 #35

Of course not, that doesn't have to be the goal from the outset though and I never read CV vaxes ... uponit7771 Jul 2021 #36

Flu vaccine is not comparable. It's well known to be hit or miss because Crunchy Frog Jul 2021 #37
