Only 2 'breakthrough' infections among hundreds of fully vaccinated people, new study finds

For fully vaccinated people, the risk of still getting Covid-19 -- described as"breakthrough infections" -- remains extremely low, a new study out of New York suggests.

Among 417 employees at Rockefeller University who were fully vaccinated with either the Pfizer or Moderna shots, two of them or about .5%, had breakthrough infections later, according to the study published on Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine."We have characterized bona fide examples of vaccine breakthrough manifesting as clinical symptoms," the researchers wrote in their study.

The agency said it has developed a national database of Covid-19 breakthroughs so that state health departments can report them"Vaccine breakthrough infections make up a small percentage of people who are fully vaccinated. CDC recommends that all eligible people get a COVID-19 vaccine as soon as one is available to them," the CDC said in a statement to CNN. CNN's Ben Tinker and Maggie Fox contributed to this report.

Same with the actual virus. 99% survival rate might I add.

great news. If this isn't enough for people to get vaccinated, I don't know what it is

As opposed to the odds of getting Covid-19 without a vaccine is low, the odds of those having symptoms are low, and the odds of them dying are low? Had Covid-19, apparently, no symptoms. I don't test positive, but have the antibodies.

I got it after being fully vaccinated but it was over in 48 hours.. I slept 36 of those 48 hours

If after being vaccinated, the risk isn't low, what would be the point of being vaccinated?

Even for the majority of ‘unvaccinated people’ don’t forget this folks!!

And I am glad to wear a mask! No colds or flu last winter or yet!

As long as you continually get vaccine boosters for the rest of your life, as long as you're not exposed to other covid variants, as long as you socially distance and wear your mask, as long as you follow the narrative that everything is not OK until we say it is, as long as...

Life Profit - Sign the Petition! WaiveThePatent

Each mutation needs an independent vaccine as long as the virus does not have a single form, so the vaccines are a hoax, people are still infected even after receiving all the doses. This is the reality.

the risk of getting covid is very small, even if you are not vaccinated

What was the efficacy rate for smallpox vaccine. We all have had the vaccine. Stopped it in its tracks. Tell that story.

I don't trust it

Cnn cant be trusted...and btw, this is old old news

Snh...that's 2 too many😕

So it’s over if you’re vaccinated. Unless your standard is 0% risk in which case you will soon be in an institution as you realize the risks you take on in everything you do.

No shit.

That’s because there’s not a variant that can resist it yet, I can guess there will be one by the summer. And no I won’t risk blood clots so I won’t get that vaccine 😁

But be sure to wear your mask, stay indoors, socially distant...

Good to hear but was this over an extended period?

Don't fear the innoculum weaklings You will cry like Ted Nugent.

Then take off the fucking masks

So how vaccines work. Got it. Marvelous “journalism”.

It is a pity. What a lie

lol CNN I have zero fear of this scamdemic and zero plans to take the poison jab

duh, a vaccine is never 100% effective

This would highly depend on which brand if vaccines one is getting...this is too much of a generalization..

And if there was a study that was contrary to that, wud u report it, & do so w/o a sneer? And if there was a study that was contrary to that, wud Twitter allow for u to tweet about it? Would govt take off pressure they put on mainstream & social media to censor?🤨 Censorship

If people believe this was Racist they should be very angry at the prosecutors for not including “hate crime” as one of the charges because this just proves that Chauvin was a bad police officer and this could’ve happened to a white person just as well !

Why is Biden still wearing two mask?

Shove that bogus study up your ass!
