Well, damn.

The outbreak was traced to an unvaccinated, symptomatic healthcare worker, who then spread the virus to 46 residents and workers at the facility, the CDC report said.

Of the 26 residents who tested positive, 18 had been fully vaccinated, the report said. Four of the 20 health care workers who tested positive were also fully vaccinated.

Three residents died in the outbreak, one of whom was fully vaccinated, the CDC said.

Moral of this story?
 
22 fully vaccinated
Proves vax don't work very well
So much for Mask work
Maybe the Fall booster will do the trick

Are you still a Covid vax resister?
49% of Republican men are.
If they were married, that wouldn't be the case. Sad.

That so many vaccinated people caught it is what is alarming.

The fully vaccinated can still get infected and spread Covid; the only saving grace is that they won't die.

And that's why masking and distancing remain in effect.

It's a shame this happened and a worker with COVID symptoms was even allowed to be on the site in the first place.
These days in some instances, one can choose which vaccine they want to receive.

Hopefully, very soon we will have Regeneron more widely available.

I don't know if they were wearing masks or not... Some of those testing positive, thankfully had been vaccinated.

An unvaccinated health care worker brought COVID-19 into an Eastern Kentucky nursing home, propagating an outbreak that infected dozens of vaccinated and unvaccinated residents last month, a new study confirms.

Gov. Andy Beshear and Kentucky Public Health Commissioner Steven Stack first announced the outbreak in March, which ultimately infected 26 residents, 20 staff and killed three people, including one resident who was fully vaccinated and two who were not.

In that facility, which hasn’t been publicly named by state officials, roughly half of the staff population chose to get the vaccine. A new report published Wednesday from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirms that an infected, symptomatic staff member brought a more transmissible COVID-19 variant into the facility that set off the outbreak.

In this nursing home at that time, more than 90% of the 83 residents had received two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, compared with only 53% of the 116 health care personnel, the study found. And of the 26 residents who tested positive, 18 were fully vaccinated, while four of the 20 staff who became infected were fully vaccinated. Six residents were hospitalized, including two who were vaccinated.

Still, though they tested positive, vaccinated people “were significantly less likely to experience symptoms or require hospitalization,” authors of the study wrote. Unvaccinated residents and staff were at least three times more likely to become infected. People with two doses of the vaccine, even when they did test positive, were 87% less likely to show symptoms, compared to those without a vaccine, which “demonstrates a strong protective effect of vaccination,” they said.

Oh, so it's due to one of the new variants, I'd missed that info and it explains why being vaccinated didn't help them.
