May 14, 2021 -- The New York Yankees have reported eight “vaccine breakthrough” cases, in which a person tests positive for COVID-19 after being fully vaccinated, including shortstop Gleyber Torres.

Torres had COVID in December. The decision to not play him was made on the advice of the Joint COVID-19 Health and Safety Committee, which is composed of one MLB representative, one representative from the players association, and two doctors.the CDC says “This means that while people who have been vaccinated are much less likely to get sick, it may still happen…There also is some evidence that vaccination may make illness less severe in people who get vaccinated but still get sick.”

The Yankees are among five MLB teams to vaccinate more than 85% of its Tier 1 staff, defined as players and staff having direct contact with players.
