Why are so many vaccinated people get Covid-19 lately? Several factors when playing, starting with the emergence of an omicron variant that is very contagious.
Omicron is more likely to infect people, even if it doesn’t make them very sick, and the surge coincides with the holiday trip season in many places.
People might mistakenly think the Covid-19 vaccine will fully block infection, but shots are mainly designed to prevent severe diseases, said Louis Mansky, a viral researcher at the University of Minnesota.
And the vaccine is still doing their work on the front, especially for people who get an amplifier.
Two doses of Pfizer-Bionontech or Moderna vaccines or one dose of Johnson & Johnson vaccine still offer strong protection against serious illness from Omicron.
While the initial dose was not too good at blocking omicron infection, booster – especially with the Pfizer and Moderna vaccine – revput antibodies to help fend off infection.
Omicron appears to replicate far more efficient than the previous variant.
And if infected people have a high virus burden, it is likely they will forward it to others, especially those who are not vaccinated.
People who are vaccinated who get more viruses likely to have mild symptoms, if any, because shooting triggers some defense in your immune system, making it more difficult for Omicron to pass everything.
Suggestions for safe remain unchanged.
The doctor said to wear a mask in the room, avoid the crowd and get vaccinated and encouraged.
Even though shots will not always make you not catch the virus, they will make it more likely you stay alive and get out of the hospital.
