This one is for @KittyWu When I opened the Laptop today I got an #Apple News notification that said "Why small number of fully vaccinated people have died of Covid-19" Was too slow to take a screenshot and it has taken a couple of searches to finally track it down. A small number of fully-vaccinated people in NSW have died of Covid-19, but it shouldn’t stop you from getting the jab or cause you to question its efficacy, experts say. As of today, 36 fully vaccinated residents have died in the state’s Delta outbreak representing around 11 per cent of overall deaths...... ......“As the proportion of the population who are vaccinated increases, the numbers of cases who are fully vaccinated will increase but this does not mean the vaccines are not working,” NSW Heath noted in the surveillance report...... .....Research fellow at Monash University’s Allergy and Clinical Immunology Laboratory, Emily Edwards, agreed, telling news.com.au that while unfortunate, “a small number of deaths will occur in the fully-vaccinated as the vaccine is not 100 per cent effective”. Actually it is only 89% effective in preventing death by Covid-19 and trending down to zero on preventing getting Covid-19.
