#5   Can you tell what's missing?

It’s the Lancet, james, always suspect given their history. At a quick glance I see no mention of how many of the vaccinated did not have breakthrough infections — is that what you meant? I seem to recall that a study of breakthrough infections by the Israeli army showed only something like 10% of those who had previous infections subsequently tested positive for the thing, and of that 10%, something like 10% of them actually showed symptoms... or possibly actually felt ill enough to matter. Though the Israeli study was about reinfection and contagiousness among those previously infected, as I recall, not among the vaccinated as that was before vaccines had become available.

#2  An Alternate View

It is official: The biggest public health threat right now are "fully vaccinated" people, whom the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) now warns are super-spreaders polluting society with Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "variants. "Nothing the CDC did this past year helped bring the "case" count down, nor did the agency save any lives.
