Watch: Dr. Fauci Confronted About CDC’s Unverified Claims About “Breakthrough” Infections: "How can the CDC say COVID "breakthrough" infections are rare if they have no data?"

slightly misleading?

if we allow the virus to freely circulate, particularly among unvaccinated people, you give the virus a greater possibility of producing a variant that could create some trouble for our vaccines."

Those injected with the frankenshot carry just as much of a viral load as the pureblood. The former are giving the virus to each other which is what is accelerating the variants, not the unjabbed.

Not looking too good for the vaccine. From your link:

SC:
Breakthrough cases:
Hospitalizations of the breakthrough cases: 1016/11879 = 8.55%
Deaths of breakthrough cases: 298/11879 = 2.51%
https://scdhec.gov/covid19/covid-19-data/breakthrough-cases-tracking-disease-infection-after-vaccination

All cases:
Hospitalizations of all cases: 29,117/860,369 = 3.38%
Deaths of all cases: 12,570/860,369 = 1.46%

Rd later.

Stunning. I don’t see how anyone can say the vaccines are still working.

since the cdc changed the dictionary definition of VACCINE, so the jab/drug could be classified as such, question:

can/does/will that change the definition of the word DRUG also?

Actually, it looks pretty good even with age bias - 1 percentage point difference. There's no argument that older people or those with wonky immune systems die from breakthroughs (US avg age 70+). How could a captive audience not get sick when exposed repeatedly to unprotected workers who keep refreshing viral exposure loads?

To quote a MUSC Md, “”Breakthrough infections are not landing vaccinated people in the intensive care unit unless they're transplant patients or have something seriously wrong with their ability to respond to a vaccine.”

I did find this little blurb in the notes of the summation at the previous link - which doesn't help laymen at all in calculating percentages.
“§ Vaccine breakthrough cases can be in one or both of the categories listed in the table above (hospitalizations, deaths). Therefore, the number shown in the total column for hospitalizations and/or deaths may not directly equal the number of breakthrough hospitalizations plus the number of breakthrough deaths.”

The best in show for early treatment so far, at 70%, is my favorite, monoclonals, but they don't prevent and are a short-lived bandaid. Same with post-infection pills announced by Merck, et al, at 50% efficacy (for healthy people). Both are used after damage that may or may not be repairable. But the goal is to prevent as much damage as possible. Over the past 20 months of research and 9 months of widespread distribution, that goal is only being met consistently by one thing. And that's where personal risk assessment comes in.
