Is this a stat that is tracked some where? It seems everyday we hear more and more about the need to vaccinate as many people as possible.

My question is who are we trying to protect at this point? My understanding is that the vaccine is very effective and even those who are infected after the vaccine have minimal symptoms (That is my understanding hence my request above).

If that is true are we trying to protect those who simply don’t want the protection for one reason or another? I say this knowing that the one age group that can’t get the vaccine has no risk at all from the virus so theoretically it is not to protect them.

10,000 have been hospitalized or died according to the other thread.

yep, and the CDC already knows that number is being underreported.

I thought that was just total positive tests, not hospitalizations and deaths.

Maybe I misinterpreted the article...

The agency noted, however, that the breakthrough number in the report is likely a substantial undercount. Going forward, the CDC is limiting the monitoring of people who have been infected while vaccinated. The agency is only sequencing a limited number of the cases, which has drawn concern from scientists.

No, 10,000 have been reported as having "breakthrough infections", which is vastly different than 10,000 hospitalizations or deaths

The NY Mets had 7 infections, yet none of the 7 even exhibited any symptoms, let alone needed hospitalization.

I saw where 230 died from the vaccine out of 150 million.
I will try to find source. Think it was testimony during senate hearing

I’m just curious what % of the 10000 were identified bc they were sick or if they were not sick but they were tested for one reason or another.

Sounds like in the Mets example they were not symptomatic but were tested any way.

Things are trending the right way in the US. I see more and more things loosening up masking for instance. Stadium capacity requirements have lifted basically everywhere.

I'll have to look for vaccinated hospitalizations. From what I've seen reported, over 90% have been unvaccinated in particular hospitals or areas, but can't recall if I've seen that grouped up into the national numbers.

There aren't a whole lot of people infected or hospitalized to begin with at this point, regardless of vaccination status.

Ya the guidance on testing asymptomatic vaccinated people is changing or was just recently changed. It is a dumb procedure.

What's basically happening is they are scraping virus out your nose that may have never entered the vaccinated person's body at all. It will go away soon.

Riddle me this Batman - If they trust the vaccine* is actually working like they say it is... why would anyone be getting tested for the ChinaVirus after being vaccinated ???

More people have died from the vaccine than from using Round Up weed killer.

VAERS had the # around 4k. 4K out of 150mil doesn’t seem too bad unless a lot of the 4K were from a low risk group (under 50 with no major health concerns).

These are deaths determined "from the vaccine"? How was that determined and what was it about the vaccine that was deemed to have killed these people?

Except the CDC only recently went with the dumbed down Covid case reporting standard. So presumably ~8000 of those 10K fell into the Yankees standard of +PCR = Covid breakthrough.

If that’s the case, why do we care so much about vaccination rate? If people want protection then get the vaccine. If people want to take their chances then it really would only be affecting them and not others around them who are concerned (bc they would have received the vaccine by now).

The vaccination rate that matters is your own.
Vaccination availability is not scarce. There is no individual monetary cost. Barriers to access are gone. So, it is a simple matter of personal choice.
