CDC COVID-19 Delta variant
2021-08-10
CDC PUBLISHED FACTS

CDC statements:

The Delta variant causes more infections and spreads faster than early forms of SARS-CoV-2.

The Delta variant is more contagious than previous strains--it may cause more than two times as many infections.

Vaccination increases your odds from infection or severe infection.

Some data suggests the Delta variant might cause more severe illness than previous strains in unvaccinated persons.

2 non-USA studies concluded patients infected with the Delta variant were more likely to be hospitalized than patients infected with previous strains.

Unvaccinated people remain the greatest concern but breakthrough infections do happen, but less often than infections in unvaccinated people.

Fully vaccinated people with breakthrough infections, can transmit the Delta variant to others.

CDC is continuing to assess data on the percentages of fully vaccinated people with breakthrough infections and numbers that were able to transmit the virus to others.

SIDE NOTE: Early external non-CDC study data placed the fully vaccinated people with breakthrough infections at between about 0.14# to 0.16#. However, recent deeper studies due to the increased number of infections are claiming much higher numbers and percentages.For instance, data from the U.K. suggests the Pfizer vaccine is 88% effective at preventing symptomatic COVID-19 from the delta variant after two doses. Which is a a 12% GAP.

CDC admits that a percentage of fully vaccinated people with Delta variant breakthrough infections can spread the virus to others. But the greater risk of transmission is still among unvaccinated people who are more likely to contract, and therefore transmit the Covid-19 DELTA variant.

CDC makes it very clear in noting, vaccinated people appear to be infectious for a shorter period.

In contrast,
The Delta variant seems to produce the same high amount of virus in both unvaccinated and fully vaccinated people. However, like other variants, the amount of virus produced by Delta breakthrough infections in fully vaccinated people also goes down faster than infections in unvaccinated people. This means fully vaccinated people are likely infectious for less time than unvaccinated people.

#8  Dale same here. We lost a family member to the spike protein vaccine.

By the way, God doesn't hate you. I don't know what Grom is thinking.

#7  Dale, I am sorry for your loss.

I also regret there is no information (Publicly) regarding acquired natural immunity from the CDC.

#6  I have lost several friends who admonished others to get the jab. They claimed no ill effects. 70's and now dead. Two others in the hospital now and it doesn't look good.

VAERS received 6,207 reports of death (0.0018% of doses) among people who got a vaccine, in the entire USA.

And several of these 6,207/USA happen to be Dale's friends. Dale, I feel for you - somebody up there must really hate you.

#5  I have lost several friends who admonished others to get the jab. They claimed no ill effects. 70's and now dead. Two others in the hospital now and it doesn't look good. Their children shamed them. A doctor and a Virologist who were not getting the vaccine, did to shut up the kids. A daughter called her mother three times a day stressing she get vac. Well her and her husband three days later were very ill with high fevers. No booster for her as a result. Media can no longer be trusted. They say 5 boosters will be required to be truly vaxed.

#1  About those CDC numbers, according to CNN via Townhall:

More than 99.99% of people [in the U.S.] who are fully vaccinated against Covid-19 have not had a breakthrough case resulting in hospitalization or death, according to a CNN analysis of data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

As of Aug. 2, more than 164 million people in the United States were fully vaccinated against Covid-19, according to the CDC. Fewer than 0.001% of those individuals — 1,507 people — died and fewer than 0.005% — 7,101 people — were hospitalized with Covid-19.

CDC last published data on breakthrough cases through July 26. These latest figures include 938 additional severe breakthrough cases — 862 additional hospitalizations and 244 additional deaths — reported over that seven-day period. The CDC does not provide more detail about the timing of the breakthrough cases.

About three-quarters (74%) of all reported breakthrough cases were among seniors age 65 or older. Of the roughly 1,500 people who died, one in five passed away from something other than Covid-19 even though they had a breakthrough case of the virus, according to the CDC.


So breakthrough cases are primarily an exceedingly rare problem of the unhealthy elderly — the same people who were the vast majority of those who got horribly sick and died of the thing among the unvaccinated.
