NEW Oxford Study Finds Fully Vaccinated People With “Breakthrough” COVID Delta Infections Carry as Much Virus as the Unvaccinated

August 20, 2021

A study by the University of Oxford scientists has now found that people who contact the Delta variant of Covid-19 after being fully vaccinated carry a similar amount of the coronavirus as those who catch the disease and have not been inoculated.

The researchers stressed that vaccination still offers good protection against catching the disease in the first place, and claim that it protects against getting seriously ill with it.

The survey used real-world U.K. data and indicates, however, that vaccinated people with “breakthrough” infections could still pose a significant infection rise to those who have not been vaccinated.

So there you have it folks, the vaccinated are spreading it to the unvaccinated. We’ve been telling you this all along, and of course no one listens. I want to first thank CBS News for having the courage to publish this information and not run from it. Kudos to them for stepping up and reporting this as well.

“With Delta, infections occurring following two vaccinations had similar peak viral burden to those in unvaccinated individuals,” the study, which has not yet been peer reviewed, concludes. Viral “burden” or viral load refers to how much coronavirus-infected people carry and thus “shed,” or release into the environment around them, where it can potentially infect others.

The survey compared U.K. government data on more than 380,000 people who tested positive for the coronavirus between December and May of this year, when the first-discovered Alpha variant accounted for most of the cases in Britain, with figures for more than 350,000 people infected over the following four months, when Delta was dominant.
