Top Vaccines Vulnerable to 'Breakthrough' Infections in South Korea (Includes rankings)
The Chosun Ilbo ^

Posted on 07/22/2021 3:57:37 PM PDT by nagant

So-called "breakthrough" infections of coronavirus are still occurring among fully vaccinated people. The government on Wednesday said there were 647 breakthrough infections as of July 19 or about 12 out of every 100,000 fully vaccinated people.

But the questions is less whether people get infected and more whether they become seriously ill as a result despite being protected by the vaccine, and that has not been confirmed.

Numbers are too small in Korea to draw any useful conclusions, but so far the breakthrough infection rate for the Johnson & Johnson vaccine translates into 32 out of every 100,000 people, 14.1 for the AstraZeneca vaccine and 4.4 people for the Pfizer vaccine.

And the reason Johnson & Johnson numbers are so high seems to be that it has only been given to young people here, mostly soldiers and military reservists, according to experts.

91% at preventing severe disease, 86% reduced hospitalization for those vaccinated in Jan. compared to 88% after Jan.

for a variant that multiples at 1000x the rate of Alpha and Beta and is just as airborne, that’s really good.

There’s not much to the blog, so we can’t ask, but can assume that those vaccinated in Jan were the nation’s elderly, who have been shown to mount weaker immune response while ageing another 6 months.

“no recourse for damages”

Not true. All drug manufacturers have liability for negligence, bad practices, etc.

Go ask the Satlers. None of them forced oxycodone down a single throat.

How many lawsuits have been filed for harm allegedly caused by these COVID vaccinations? There must be thousands of lawsuits filed by now.

I think I misread your post. You’re saying they’re not responsible unless it’s mandated?
