Three studies that drew data from different U.S. regions evaluated the protective power of the vaccines. One looked at more than 600,000 virus cases in 13 states, representing about one quarter of the U.S. population, between April and July, and concluded that individuals who were not fully vaccinated were far more susceptible to infection and death from the virus.

They were 4.5 times more likely than vaccinated individuals to become infected, 10 times more likely to be hospitalized, and 11 times more likely to die from the coronavirus, the study found.

(Might need to access the article in incognito if paywalled. Though I believe it’s sourcing the numbers from this study: LINK )

So having the vaccine makes you less likely to catch COVID (not to mention the reduced hospitalization and death chances).

In response to:

You clowns are insufferable. You still can’t explain why unvaxxed people need to get the vaccine if you can still get and transmit (at the same or greater rate) the virus when vaxxed.

I’d say that unvaccinated people need to be vaccinated because vaccination reduces (though does not eliminate spread). (Again, in addition to the obvious benefits of reduced risk of hospitalization and death.)

Based on the study, a group of vaccinated individuals should be less likely to have COVID, and therefore are less likely to spread COVID. Adding unvaccinated individuals to that mix increases the chances of adding people who are more likely to catch COVID and introduce it to the group, which increases the risk of spread.

Based on the study, your bolded parenthetical appears to be false.

Of course you post propaganda from NYT. When are you folks going to finally learn the MSM and politico’s are owned and in cahoots with Big Pharma, and they’re all getting rich off government subsidized covid “relief” and vaccine funding tax dollars?

This same media is still calling a Nobel Prize winning anti-viral drug that nearly 4 billion fricking humans have been prescribed, and the WHO has on their list of global ESSENTIAL medicines, a “horse dewormer”.

How the hell are you idiots still believing anything they say?

Here is John’s Hopkins just a few weeks ago: LINK

quote:
Amesh Adalja, MD, of the Center for Health Security, answers a few questions about our evolving understanding of immunity and COVID vaccines. THE NEW DATA SAYS THAT A FULLY VACCINATED PERSON WHO EXPERIENCES A BREAKTHROUGH INFECTION CAN SPREAD THE VIRUS JUST AS MUCH AS AN UNVACCINATED PERSON.

the exact rates of breakthrough cases are unknown at this time because cases may be asymptomatic and, until recently, the CDC didn’t recommend that vaccinated people be tested following exposure. For this reason, updated guidance states that vaccinated people should resume wearing a mask in indoor public areas, especially where there is high transmission of COVID-19.

Seriously, think… why the hell are we hitting 300% higher cases and hospitalizations NOW than this time last year when magnitudes fewer people were vaxxed?

Also, explain the logic that mandates are needed if only people who choose to be unvaxxed are at risk?

If you’re vaxxed, and you truly believe the covid jab protects you, why the frick do you care if anyone else chooses to go unprotected?

Again, why are these people bypassing all medical standards of “treatment” and going 100% straight to the vaccine? And not only all in on the vaccine, but actually LYING continually about viable treatments that are consistently proving to work?

Why are doctors sending people home without prescriptions? Why are pharmacies getting bullied into not filling prescriptions?
