I just read something disturbing. We have logged 180 breakthrough Covid cases in the past few weeks. These are people who caught Covid despite being at least two weeks out after their second shot. There were fewer than 3k Covid cases during the same time period so it looks like about 6% of people who tested positive were fully vaxxed.
This is in an area that could be over 95% mRNA. We received a little J&J but I don't think much. The state is not saying which vaccine these people had. 60% of the eligible population is vaccinated which is about 50% of the total population.
I am just surprised the breakthrough numbers are so high. Or maybe they aren't? .05% of the vaccinated population has tested positive for Covid. That sounds better. I suspect the breakthrough case number is an underestimate, however. How many vaccinated people would think to get a test?
