CDC has stopped counting every 'breakthrough' Covid infection in fully vaccinated people: Experts warn agency's new method of only collecting data on patients who are hospitalized or die could miss patterns in who gets sick after their shots

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stopped counting every infection among people fully immunized with the COVID-19 vaccine who later tested positive for the virus.

So-called 'breakthrough cases' occur when people contract coronavirus at least 14 days after receiving their final dose of the vaccine.

As of April 26, 9,245 Americans out of more than 95 million fell ill with COVID-19 after being vaccinated, about 0.009 percent.

However, at the beginning of May, the CDC revealed it will no longer report all breakthroughs and instead only those that lead to hospitalization or death, as first reported by Bloomberg.

According to the CDC, nine percent of the breakthrough infections, or 835, have resulted in hospitalization and one percent, 132 people, have died.

But an expert tells DailyMail.com that now is not the time for the federal health agency to change their methods of data collection, and stress that it could lead to missing patterns in who gets sick after their shots.

In a statement, a spokeswoman from the CDC told DailyMail.com that the agency is transitioning to only reporting on specific cases 'to help maximize the quality of the data collected on cases of greatest clinical and public health importance.'

Of course it’s time to downplay infections.

The communists are in power - everything is fine citizen.

“Experts warn agency’s new method of only collecting data on patients who are hospitalized or die could miss patterns in who gets sick after their shots”

I thought that was the point of the new method.

They weren’t counting them earlier this year until there were too many to deny.

The CDC never even counted H1N1 cases, they only estimated (guessed) and settled on the MIDDLE guess between their high estimate and low estimate (and those were probably JUST symptomatic cases). They SCIENCE.

This is what counts as “settle science” these days. Keep manipulating the data and methods until you get the answer you seek.

“Fully immunized” but you can still get sick from the virus?

But the virus itself is counted as a 'case' on a positive test, using unprecedented testing protocols, even for people with no symptoms.

We’re not trying to hide anything, not in the least, we are open and transparent... even our data says so!

So just to be clear, does “breakthrough” mean the dreaded disease has “broken through” the guaranteed safe and effective vax protection wall? Is that wall as useless as the one on the southern border seems to be these days? Hard to keep up with all the lies they’re spewing these days.

Could lead to missing patterns? Could? Jeez.

With the world biggest human trial ongoing, you would think we would be watching the vaccinated like a hawk. If one had so much as the sniffles, we ought to be looking into it and tracking it.

The vaccine industry is pure evil and fraudulent

The “immunization “. Or “ antibodies “. Theories. Are nonsense

From injecting chemicals in your body that is

True immunity comes from a healthy immune system and if you ever get a certain bug you get immunity to that once you’re through having it

Kind of reminds me how they count inflation.

Facts don’t matter.

The CDC is gyrating to avoid discussion over immunization, which the 'jab' only emulates. Herd immunity has a naturally immunized population, combined with an APPROVED vaccinated population. The best test of natural immunity is a t-cell antibody test that is 'positive'. This should be the basis of an Immunity Passport, which is far more valuable than a 'vaccination' passport, as it reflects medical reality.

Wouldn’t that be included in the “patterns in who gets sick after their shots” part?
