Ex-CDC Director Robert Redfield believes COVID-19 came from Wuhan lab
"Post-vaccination “breakthrough” COVID-19 infections are being taken “seriously,” Dr. Anthony Fauci said Friday as federal officials expressed concern about rising coronavirus cases in the US.
“With regard to the breakthrough cases of people who have been vaccinated and ultimately have gotten infection, obviously this is something that we take seriously and follow closely,” the nation’s top infectious disease expert said during virtual White House coronavirus briefing.
Fauci’s comments come after Minnesota reported this week 89 breakthrough infections among people who have been fully vaccinated against the coronavirus.
Idaho health officials also said this week there have been fewer than 100 reported breakthrough COVID-19 cases, according to KTVB."

That’s why it’s known as the Wuhanic Plague.
“Fauci said that “one of the important things that will be done, and must be done, is to sequence the genome of the virus that’s the breakthrough virus” in order to find out whether infection was from the original virus strain or one of the COVID-19 variants.”
“It would be very important to see if they broke through with the wild-type virus, which would indicate a real diminution of immunity or whether it broke through with one of the variants, which would be much more explainable if you don’t have enough cross-reactivity,” he said.”
“...Idaho health officials also said this week there have been fewer than 100 reported breakthrough COVID-19 cases, according to KTVB.”...”

Well...duh! If only the vaccines were 100% effective instead of 95% effective. ;-)
The good news is that the vaccines were 100% effective in the trials in preventing SEVERE disease and death from COVID-19.

So why isn’t this guy doing that instead of spending every waking moment in front of TV cameras flapping his gums?
Genome testing the cases here in the USA sure would be a better use of taxpayer money than funding the creation of these killer viruses in a Wuhan lab which is what Fauci did apparently. Prove me wrong.
Fauci is an egotistical, camera-seeking joke. I didn’t post this article to relay Fauci’s opinions. I posted it because we are just starting to see data on “breakthrough” infections among the vaccinated.
Very important info which will eventually give us a clearer picture of vaccine efficacy and/or variant ability to evade vaccine.
Infectious disease experts are the “weathermen” of medical science. They’re great at modeling infections and transmission rates, but they spend most of their time covering for their mistakes.
This has been obvious since the Spring of 2020. The Chinese were genetically manipulating these Covid viruses in the Wuhan lab since 2015.
He was great in Jeremiah Johnson but not as good in Downhill Racer.

New York Times:
“In the next few months, Pfizer and Moderna are expected to release data that should indicate how often vaccinated people become infected by the virus, even if they have no symptoms. The companies have been testing participants in their vaccine trials for antibodies to a protein called N that is part of the coronavirus but not part of the vaccine. Finding those antibodies means that a vaccinated person has been infected by the virus. Some volunteers from the studies are also having their noses swabbed regularly to test for an active viral infection.”
“Another question is how effective the vaccines are in people whose immune systems have been weakened by illness or medications, said Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease expert at Vanderbilt University. Breakthrough cases might occur in those people because their bodies cannot produce a robust reaction to a vaccine.”
“And it is amazing how pervasive immunocompromise is,” Dr. Schaffner said.”
“The Illinois Department of Public Health told NBC 5 it is tracking cases of individuals who have been vaccinated and test positive for COVID-19. According to IDPH, of the more than 1.6 million people who are fully vaccinated, 217 reported a positive test more than two weeks after their last vaccine dose.”
“Having been fully vaccinated for six weeks and then to get a positive COVID test, I was shocked,” Silver said.”
“It hit me hard,” she said. “I’ve read that if someone vaccinated gets COVID, it’s usual very mild symptoms. But for two days my symptoms were not mild at all. I was in bed, very ill.”
