  • Probably 5-10% which was expected.
  • Most of us will likely get the highly contagious Delta variant which in fully vaccinated individuals causes symptoms similar to an allergy or common cold but does result in a positive covid test in those few who are tested. . 4 fully vaccinated members of my immediate family have had C19 positive tests in the past 3 weeks. . .I daughter tested positive when the airline tested her for the flight back to the U.S. at the end of a 1 week vacation in cancun mexico. so she was quarantined & confined to her Cancun hotel room for 9 more days until she tested negative, Her sister tested positive when she was tested before returning to her school secretary job monday. She is now quarentined with full pay for 10 days. My grandson is in medical school so he has to test periodically & he & his wife are also quarantined right now due to c-19 positive results.. This delta variant has caused a very bad case of the flu with high fevers & chills in 2 unvaccinated friends but other than quarantine for testing positive its only a minor annoyance for fully vaccinated people.
  • Even one is too many.

      i agree yes one is too many , and also some think some one dying etc is ok cause its only 1 in so many people ..they are not numbers they are humans
  • About 2%, Being vaccinated stops you catching it ,

      New account on instagram, you've broke my heart. Look in your followers.

      Sorry but Most of the delta victims who test positive now have had both their covid 19 shots;months ago. I got my moderna shots on march 1 & march 29 2021 but that doesn't protect me from this much more contagious Delta mutation thats running rampant in the center of the country right now.
    • Beat Covid, Avoid Republicans
      Try Pfizer, its better. I don't even know why they authorized Moderna. Its 1/5 as powerful.
  • It would probably be much less, if the government weren't distributing thousands of unscreened migrants across the US.
  • Some because the vaccine is not full proof.
  • There's really no way of knowing when some people are being given fake covid immunizations instead of the real thing!! https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/woman-arrested-fake-covid-19-immunization-and-vaccination-card-scheme

      These were fake "pellets" and fake cards, not fake injections. Most people getting the vaccine know very well that it is delivered via injection, not "pellets," and most people are not taking fake pellets. Of course, that doesn't account for the idiots who refuse to get the vaccine at all but think it's fine to take horse deworming medicine, which some moron on Fox claimed would work against the virus. There's really no limit to the low intelligence of Trumpkins, is there?
  • The covid vaccine wears off rapidly, depending on how you respond to it. 1 in 20 might not respond to it at all, and it might be that after 12 months, even the most robust immune systems will be as susceptible to the virus as they had been before. We don't know for sure yet, but there are plent of data that show a lot of people after 6 months have no more antibodies left.

      I can't seem to find that information. Could you post a link, please? All I'm seeing is that it drops from 90 some % to 80 some % after 6 mos. None say that they have no more antibodies left.

      Sorry I missed your comment until now. We have better data now than when I posted that comment. The antibodies we thought were responsible for immunity had a half life of about 7 days on average, which wasn't super promising. We now have identified another antibody that has a half-life of about 3-4 times that. Still, it's a shorter window of protection than a flu shot by a factor of about 5. The mainstream medical community still hasn't made a recommendation on a long-term booster schedule, because they are pretty slow to move. Still, it appears that memory cells are pretty robust, so, at least, symptoms are usually much milder after previous exposure. It's probably all pointless discussion now, I think enough people have been vaccinated or had covid already and still gotten covid (again) anyway, so we know that it's not super dangerous if you've had it before or if you've been vaccinated, typically. But yes, the immunity itself in terms of immediately fighting off a potential infection, is very short-lived, so a time of 6 months between exposures usually results in an infection. As far as how long the memory cells will work, that's still a wide-open question, since this virus has only existed for about 3 years. If you'd like to read the articles from 2020-2021 about the waning of immunity, I can dig some up. Here's one: https://www.science.org/content/article/more-people-are-getting-covid-19-twice-suggesting-immunity-wanes-quickly-some
  • 18.5% of the population. https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/covid-19-breakthrough-data Its more than that now all you sheep that lined up should be worried. Open your eyes maybe its for the best.
  • Vaccines contain tiny fragments of the disease-causing organism itself. That means that everyone who received the Covid vaccine was injected with the Covid virus itself. So who could still get Covid? Anyone who got the vaccine. With the panic that was created through the "follow-the-science" Liberal propaganda spearheaded by Anthony Fauci and the bought-and-paid-for media, the pandemic grew into a worldwide scare campaign that infected a population that didn't know any better. If you got vaccinated, you could still become infected.

      Well, that's not really how any of that works. The covid vaccine, in particular, was a totally new sort of vaccine, where messenger RNA from the virus is injected into the patient, that mRNA causes your cells to create the spike proteins found in the virus that helps your immune system identify it, you body produces the antibodies that neutralize the spike proteins, and then you have immunity. Most traditional vaccines use a neutralized virus instead of a live virus, but it totally depends on the vaccine. The reason people who got the vaccine still get covid is because the antibodies your immune system creates are very small and get filtered out of your blood by your renal system. The fewer antibodies you have, the lower your protection against the virus. Every vaccine works this way, but, for something like chicken pox, the antibodies stay in your blood stream for decades, which is a good thing, because the virus can also remain dormant in your body just as long, which is why shingles is a disease that exists. Shingles usually breaks out when someone is stressed out and their immune system doesn't work as well as it should, but you can also get full-blown chicken pox if you had it before and your antibodies fade away enough, but it generally takes an extremely long time. With covid, the process happens much more quickly. So, whether you've been vaccinated OR if you've already had covid before, it is possible to get it (again) once immunity fades enough, especially if your body is under other sorts of stress.
  • Most of the people I know who are vaccinated, and that's 99.9%, have all had it, a lot of the time more than once. Back ache, and sneezing are symptoms now as well. .
