FORREST COUNTY, Miss. (WMC) - Just one COVID-19 case is considered an outbreak in a long-term care facility because of how easily it can spread in a community setting and the high-risk residents. Mississippi health officials are announcing two new outbreaks that are all tied to breakthrough cases.

However, Thursday the Mississippi State Department of Health reported 10 additional cases of the highly infectious South African COVID-19 variant in nursing homes in Forrest and Covington counties.

In all 10 cases, everyone was fully vaccinated. Medical professionals call these breakthrough cases.

I hope people actually read the article:

“The only people who have been vaccinated that we have seen sick enough to be in the hospital, let alone the ICU setting, are those people who are immune-suppressed and can’t get a good response to the vaccine,”

...10 additional cases of the highly infectious South African COVID-19 variant in nursing homes in Forrest and Covington counties.

“The only people who have been vaccinated that we have seen sick enough to be in the hospital, let alone the ICU setting, are those people who are immune-suppressed and can’t get a good response to the vaccine,” said infectious disease expert Dr. Steve Threlkeld earlier this week.

Of the 10 breakthrough variant cases in Mississippi, a majority had minimal to no symptoms, but two required hospitalization and there was one death.

Thanks for posting that important detail...

Once again it shows that these vaccines will not protect you from catching the virus.

No vaccine will ever be effective for *everyone* who takes it.

Then it was inappropriate to give these people the vaccine. They should be treated with something like Ivermectin which binds to the spike protein on the virus rendering it inert. Ivermectin does not rely on the body’s immune response.

Won’t matter. The virus will find the cracks. Should have left vectors of the young + strong. This path the idiots in charge, they were warned, leads to many a breakthrough virus. We will end up with either a very strong virus, Chinese weapon or a AED variant. No other possibilities that I see. The vac didn’t create immunity. It created quasi antibodies.

They vaccinate people in hospice. They vaccinated a 99 year old who hadn’t eaten in a week! I know this because I’ve read VAERS reports stating that these people died following ‘vaccination’. To me, they are torturing people.

I’m not their doctor. I was just addressing the misleading ‘scare’ nature of the thread title, and suggesting that people actually read the article that Newbie posted.

Just realized, all the poor souls <60 years old dying with covid prolly had aids

I read the article and listened to the report.

Breakthrough cases are breakthrough cases...Some required hospitalization, some did not.

Not sure of your point.

[JohnBrowdie]

no one is going to read the article. it would get in the way of the fairy tale.

[Jamestown1630]

And I’m not sure of your reading comprehension skills...

Then you're not very bright. :)

Anyone seriously ill or dying ?

Or is the common cold level

And the covidiots chant in unison:

- anecdotal

- its just their time to go

- take your shot, one of us, one of us, gooble gobble, gooble gobble

[Jane Long]

Yep.

Maybe these people just need more experimental vaxxing.

Their first ones just weren’t strong enough.

🙃

Yeah, I saw that — of course they didn’t read the article. They are too busy scanning for the few one off and rejoicing in the well under 5% of cases that occur in the vaccinated to actually understand that they are simply proving the point of the efficacy of the vaccine.

As an old political science statement goes — when your opponent is destroying his own argument, get out of the way.

The only thing that truly bothers me is the glee with which they report the few and far between breakthroughs and rejoice in the nonsiubstantiated deaths as reported by VAERS, which, even if we use their numbers still is 5x LESS than fatalities related to car travel a day — so I am still waiting for them to be intellectually honest and say they will never drive again — because like the vaccine — their car can spread death. (at east according to them)
