Vaccinated people are just as capable of contracting and transmitting covid asymptomatically

We are well past the point where this type of divisiveness is not only toxic, it is completely unfounded.

It turns out that vaccinated people are just as capable of contracting and transmitting covid, AND they’re more likely to do so asymptomatically without even realizing it.

[The CDC] released a study that showed the Delta variant produced similar amounts of virus in vaccinated and unvaccinated people if they got infected — data that suggests vaccinated people who get a breakthrough infection could have a similar tendency to spread the virus as the unvaccinated.

“There are reports coming in that vaccinated populations have cases of infection, particularly with the delta variant,” Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, the World Health Organization’s chief scientist, said at a press briefing Monday. “The majority of these are mild or asymptomatic infections.”

I’m sorry that our politicians and public health “experts” — who claim to “follow the science” — are actually spreading misinformation that isn’t based on current science whatsoever.

I hope people will begin to think for themselves.

We should be thankful for vaccine passports

We should be thankful for the vaccine passports. The biggest threat to unvaccinated people are VACCINATED people, who are far more likely to be walking around with asymptomatic infections.

Let the self-righteous vaccinated people rule the world for a few months.

We might see them sitting in restaurants or working out at the gym and envy them for now. But soon they will start to realize that they were led astray, and that herd immunity was never even possible with these vaccines.

And we’re certainly not going to envy them when they finally begin to question what an ‘investigatory vaccine’ is, and start to ask themselves why they consented to being injected with one (or three).

And when that happens, we will show them the compassion and understanding that they never showed us.

Duke sets new campus restrictions after rise in COVID cases among vaccinated students

In the first week of classes, 304 undergraduates, 45 graduate students and 15 employees tested positive for COVID-19. All but eight of these individuals were vaccinated, and the vast majority of them are asymptomatic. A small number have minor, cold- and flu-like symptoms, and none have been hospitalized, according to the university.

The vast majority of the cases on campus in the first week of classes have been among individuals who are fully vaccinated and who are asymptomatic.

Shedding of Infectious SARS-CoV-2 Despite Vaccination when the Delta Variant is Prevalent

Notably, 68% of individuals infected despite vaccination tested positive with Ct <25, including at least 8 who were asymptomatic at the time of testing. Our data substantiate the idea that vaccinated individuals who become infected with the Delta variant may have the potential to transmit SARS-CoV-2 to others. Vaccinated individuals should continue to wear face coverings in indoor and congregate settings, while also being tested for SARS-CoV-2 if they are exposed or experience COVID-like symptoms

Most fully vaccinated people who get Covid delta infections are asymptomatic, WHO says

Covid hospitalizations are rising in some parts of the world, mostly where vaccination rates are low and the highly contagious delta variant is spreading.
