Tracking breakthrough cases will always under-report because there will be asymptomatic and low symptom cases. (Same as unvax low symptom cases are hard to track.) Vaccines are preventing hospitalizations and deaths on a massive scale. Oh, and cases too, but that data is coming from other studies that have been linked. Some faith-based chicken little types here that vaccines don't work after 6 months but data and science say otherwise. Keep watching the data. It's evolving. I agree that vaccines are preventing hospitalizations and deaths. However we should clearly define our terms here. However I cited two papers that show breakthroughs are happening at the less than severely I'll level and that the vaccine isn't a silver bullet for stopping the spread. I get two does not a pattern make, but we need to be realistic about their role. We need to stop sensationalizing the vaccines as the one stop cure and teach people how to slow the spread of illness. Say what the vaccines are good for: preventing you from getting seriously ill from the virus. It doesn't mean you can't be spreading COVID. COVID is also evolving. Delta has evolved enough to force sub-lineage changes AY.1- AY.3 and to divide them further again. But that's not my point, my point is that studies are starting to show that vaccinated persons are likely spreading COVID at higher rates than thought. And that calls for the healthcare community community to relook at the best ways to slow the spread and slow the mutations.

I always thought the vaccine was only intended to mitigate symptoms... And, if the vaccine was never intended to stop the contracting/spread of the virus, why is it labeled as a “breakthrough” if it is contracted? Just kind of seems like word manipulation to me to create a narrative about the vaccine that may not be true... Honest questions and thoughts...feel free to correct me if I’m wrong... Point 1 I was under the impression that Cuomo said in NY it's the golden bullet that will prevent deaths and stop the spread. I also know that based on the CDC's response to vaccinations and their making guidelines they had the exact same thoughts. Point 2 It's labeled as breakthrough because the mRMA vaccines were marketed as 94-95% effective from getting COVID. Breakthroughs are for those who do get COVID after a certain time period after full dosage (14 or 28 days after second ***** dependant on who you speak to). If the amount of fully vaccinated persons who contact COVID stays at 5%, well that's perfectly reasonable. It's when you start hitting double digits that the efficacy of the initial vaccine has gone down. And some may be out there to create narratives. I just want people to see facts, not just propaganda ( be it from whatever side is coming from) 1 1
Big Blitz Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 What do we know about the future of breakthrough infections and Delta? How long will the boosters last for the old and immunocompromised vs Delta? Then for the population as a whole. Can you still catch Delta if fully "boosted?"

You may get it, might not; but you can't live your life avoiding some strain of the FLU that we're all exposed to, DAILY, if we're out in normal life. SO, either accept that you might be exposed, or life your life in fear. ***** OFF if you think it's anything else.

Like all other viruses, the potential for severe illness and death depends on your personal risk profile including the presence or absence of specific co-morbidities and health issues.

Not much to disagree with here. The problem is so many people opposed to the mini-Hitlers as you call them mix their opposition to them with bad science. See Big Blitz and Timmy and many others here. Covid is serious. Vaccines make a difference. Widely used good masks make a difference too. We should not allow government to rush to control decisions unless the situation is extremely dire. In this crisis, I'd say March/April 2020 justified extreme measures. And maybe right now in Florida, Texas, Alabama you could justify measures while the hospitals struggle. Maybe.
