Unfortunately Delta infects a large number of vaccinated people in MA after a town held some kind of festival where indoor crowds w/o masks were frequent - the unvaccinated attendees apparently turned into super-spreaders:


As previously reported, the authors compared RT-PCR cycle threshold (Ct) values in 127 vaccinated people with breakthrough cases to 84 unvaccinated people or those with unknown vaccination status, and found them to be comparable (median 22.77 and 21.54, respectively).

Walensky specifically pointed to the high viral loads among the vaccinated in this case, suggesting that vaccinated people infected with the Delta variant can transmit the virus.

"This finding is concerning and was a pivotal discovery leading to CDC's updated mask recommendation," she said, saying it was "updated to ensure the vaccinated public would not unknowingly transmit virus to others, including their unvaccinated or immunocompromised loved ones."

Or there were a handful of pre-symptomatic vacc'ed along with the unvacc'ed that did the spreading.

My takeaway is that pending further info, all bets on presumptions and prior expectations about being home free are off. Masks and precautions.

Further death and suffering and a successful read out on V and C19. Careful what you pray for.
