Of the 469 cases of coronavirus infection, 346 (74%) were recorded in those who were vaccinated.
Three quarters of those infected in the US state of Massachusetts have been fully vaccinated. This is evidenced by the results of a study of a sharp increase in cases of infection with the Delta coronavirus strain. This is stated in the weekly report on morbidity and mortality from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
“In July 2021, after numerous mass events in Barnstable, Massachusetts, 469 cases of COVID-19 were detected among Massachusetts residents who traveled to this city between July 3 and 17. 346 (74%) cases were recorded among fully vaccinated individuals “, – says the report ..
According to the report, testing identified the Delta strain in 90% of patients.
This report was key evidence in the CDC’s findings that those vaccinated can spread the virus, which is why the agency recommended that the wearing of masks for vaccinated people in closed public places be reinstated.
With over 162 million Americans vaccinated each week, about 35,000 people show signs of infection, according to an internal CDC document released by the media. In Massachusetts, this figure was higher.
Earlier, American doctors explained, What is the threat of Delta strain… The new type of virus is transmitted more intensely than the viruses that cause MERS, SARS, Ebola, the common cold, seasonal flu and chickenpox, and, according to the document, it is as infectious as chickenpox.
