(CNN)In one week, there were nine cases of Covid-19 in fully vaccinated members of the New York Yankees organization: one player, three coaches and five team staff. The revelation has led to questions about vaccine efficacy and fears of super-strength variant strains. But experts say these cases show the vaccine is working, and testing remains a useful tool.
A Major League Baseball spokesperson confirmed to CNN Wednesday that eight of those nine cases were asymptomatic. Each of the nine were fully vaccinated -- it had been at least 14 days since their single dose of the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine.
Dr. Costi Sifri, an infectious disease physician and hospital epidemiologist at the University of Virginia, told CNN that the news of the ballplayers is evidence that the Johnson & Johnson vaccine works.
"It's preventing serious infections in those staff and players with the Yankees," Sifri told CNN. "Those infections that occurred, the so-called breakthrough infections, importantly were for the most part mild to moderate infections."
No one in this group has ended up severely ill or in need of hospitalization. However, finding so many breakthrough cases in one spot does say something about testing.

The fact that it is not working is proof that it is working.
Catch 22
This writer must never have heard the expression - “Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining...”
Ridiculous propaganda.
XiNN.
“It’s preventing serious infections in those staff and players with the Yankees,”
I don’t think it shows that at all. You cannot logically say that hey he’s sick but it could have been worse. You have no way of knowing that. You can just as easily posit that the shots made the folks MORE susceptible to getting it. There’s no evidence for that either.
The fact that they didn’t get real sick is probably because the vast majority who get Wuhan Flu have mild symptoms anyway.
You could also say the shots were making them shed so many spikes that it looked like they were infected.
Your analysis is incorrect. It was never expected to be more than 95% effective at eliminating the disease. It WAS expected, though, of reducing the severity of the disease in all who received it.
Actually, proof their experimental drug does affect human test subjects.
Vaccines are given BEFORE the flu or “plaque” enters a population.
To give a vaccine 12 months after the flu has infected most folks is well, stupid, and provided zero efficacy.
Now, whatever is in this experimental drug that will make some people sick, kill them, or deliver some life long ailment, is a completely reasonable outcome

Are they using PCR testing on suspected breakthrough cases?
If so, nuff said.
The jab is going to kill some people; Here’s why that’s a good thing.
it will help the lying writer that the anti-American,
biowarefare-producing, royalty-driven CDC refuses
to record injuries or deaths from their murderous “vaccines”.
Yes but healthy athletes in their 20s and early 30/s have a stupidly low risk from the virus itself anyway so it’s in no way proof
So, before all the jabs were being done, asymptomatic cases were a serious threat that showed the need for the jabs - now the asymptomatic cases “prove the jabs work”.
Amazing how stupid and forgetful they think we are.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha. Idiots.
Healthy young athletes are expected to get mild infections. That’s because they have a better functioning immune system.
Please allow me to help you.
Think of the vaccine as a fat person drinking diet soda.
Can you imagine how much fatter they'd be if they were drinking real soda instead ?
