18 breakthrough deaths were reported last week
More than 4,000 fully vaccinated people in Massachusetts tested positive for the coronavirus last week, a daily average of more than 600 people as breakthrough infections continue to rise each week amid the delta variant.
The rate of breakthrough infections week-over-week starting five weeks ago surged 64%, then the following week went up 20%, the next week jumped by 25%, the subsequent week increased by 20%, and in the last week climbed by 23%.
Breakthrough cases in Massachusetts are making up about one-third of the state’s overall cases. People who are unvaccinated are at a higher risk for infection and a severe case.
Overall, 23,858 fully vaxxed people have tested positive for the virus, according to new data from the state Department of Public Health on Tuesday. That’s 0.53% of the more than 4.5 million fully vaxxed people in Massachusetts.
The nearly 24,000 overall cases is an increase of 4,415 breakthrough infections from last week — or a daily average of 631 fully vaccinated people testing positive.
Last Tuesday’s report showed a rise of 3,704 breakthrough cases, a daily average of 529 fully vaxxed people testing positive.
The previous week was a jump of 3,098 infections, a daily average of 443 fully vaxxed people.
The prior week was a jump of 2,672 infections, a daily average of 382 infections.
The week before that was a rise of 2,232 breakthroughs, a daily average of 319 infections.
Breakthrough hospitalizations account for about 25% of current COVID-19 hospitalizations. Those who are unvaccinated are at a much higher risk for a severe case and hospitalization.
There have been 762 hospitalizations among fully vaccinated people in Massachusetts, which is 0.02% of those who are fully vaxxed.
The 762 total patients is a one-week increase of 111 fully vaxxed patients. The previous weekly increase was 80 fully vaxxed patients.
The state has reported 162 breakthrough deaths, or 0.004% of those who are fully vaxxed. That’s a one-week increase of 18 deaths. The previous weekly increase was 13 deaths, and the week before that was seven deaths.
Seems to be a problem with the shot if this is happening.
Yup—we are gonna be seeing a lot more of this.
The vaccines are just not working—it will get obvious soon enough...
Even the Stevie Wonders around here will be able to see it.
If the damned unvaccinated would just take the jab ... at least three of them ...
Golly. We must do more to protect the vaccinated people from the unvaccinated.
You see all those people? All the ones who take the jab? And how sick they get afterward? Yeah. We need to do more of that.
See, see! Them stupid unvaccinated people again causing the vaccinated to die!
“FOR THE LATEST ON CONvid-19 testing and treatment, visit the CDC website!” We know this must be impossible and saying things like this will only frustrate the DIC* more.
*Disaster In Chief.
Its not that the shots arent working
They are making things worse.

Our 20-something kid's company hasn't force the jab on their employees, but how long they will hold out remains a concern.
I think the data will support your view at the end of the day...
Agreed.
My analogy is Germany in the 1930s.
A lot of folks did stuff they knew was bad for themselves and others—but they felt trapped by the system.
The seasonal flu shot doesn’t guarantee that you won’t get the flu but it generally means you get a milder case.
Why should the ‘rona shot be any different?
The stats seem to confirm that.
Mass infection prevention and mass vaccination with leaky Covid-19 vaccines in the midst of the pandemic can only breed highly infectious variants.

Wait, what?
Does any of this make sense? Seriously.
I don’t get a flu shot and I don’t get the flu.
Just remember:
The objective of socialism is to make everybody equally miserable....................
i dont think i heard anyone say that those were easy choices to make
but if you care for those people that depend on you how is dying from heart failure in three years or less, doing that, in order to keep a job you could still be fired from?
form any folks it might require a lower standard of living for awhile
it also may be a time to do other things and become your own boss
But, but… Oh, never mind.
