“How do you report an “asymptomatic” case? You going to test every single person in the USA over and over?”

Is that how the CDC reported the 20 million they have already reported? I suggest they use the same methodology they had been using to date.

And I find using the total number of immunized persons as a denominator very misleading unless each and every one of the immunized has been exposed to covid. We know from the past year+ most people have not been exposed to covid during the entire pandemic.

The CDC is reporting 33,662,534 cases, those were people who volunteered to be tested or were admitted to the hospital, etc.. As a pandemic wanes less testing is done. Yes, using all immunized people “as the denominator” is misleading (to some), but the number of breakthrough cases verses the claimed efficacy of 95% is so small (0.0000118%) there is little doubt of the 95% claim holding up....there are always going to be “immunocompromised” individuals that vaccines are less effective on.
