About 5,800 people who have been vaccinated against coronavirus have become infected anyway, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tells CNN.

Some became seriously ill and 74 people died, the CDC said. It said 396 -- 7% -- of those who got infected after they were vaccinated required hospitalization.It's the first indication from CDC of how effective the vaccine is in real life -- and the first indication the vaccines do not protect completely against severe disease and death."So far, about 5,800 breakthrough cases have been reported to CDC.

that sounds like amazingly good news to those of us who can do basic arithmetic

stop wanting covid to go on forever. you're an absolutely evil organization

A guy wore a seatbelt but died in a carcrash anyway, the DoT says

so what you're saying is that the vaccine is 99.9992% effective

Cynical headlines for clicks. 600,000. But clicks.

Holy crap CNN going all in on trying to decrease vacccine uptake. Wow. What a trash headline. I’m starting to think some folks were right when they said news outlets want this to continue for ratings. Because that shows the efficacy is high but they say it as a scare headline

You’re better than this.

Great news. A tiny fraction got the virus so it must be very effective.

rickatkagan 5,800 is probably a low number as not all infected people who were vaccinated have been reported. BUT, this proves the 95% protection rate advertised is TRUE! Finally, proof in advertising!

How about stating how effective the vaccine is and even performing better than projected efficacy numbers?

Re write your headline!!! The vaccine doesn't stop you getting the virus. It stops you getting it so bad you could be hospitalized or die. This headline smacks of FOX NEWS. disappointed

Tens of millions and only 5800? Well gosh damn! Those vaccines are working!

Holy shit it isn’t a cure 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

Well yeah its not 100% effective... like...hello? Natural selection at play here I assume?

good

In all fairness, they did say the effectiveness was around 95% so about 6K from tens of millions seems like good statistics to me

How many had issues with blood clots. Not just death, but major health issues.

I've got the cure for all of our sins...

Yes, that’s to be expected. And why it says 95% effective and not 100%
