I read this story yesterday about an outbreak at a Long Term Care Facility in Kentucky. There's a link in the story to the study that the CDC posted. It's a little concerning as the variant was a new one that is not on the CDC "variant of concern" list. It had some of the mutations that the other "concerning" variants have had (U.K, South Africa and Brazil). The not so great part is that out of 199 residents and workers, 46 were infected (or 23%), and of the 46 people, 22 of them were fully vaccinated, ) or 11% The infection was brought in by an unvaccinated worker.....only 56% of employees got the vaccine. 90% of the 83 residents were vaccinated. Three residents died, one was fully vaccinated, the others were not.
The authors pointed out how important it is to vaccinate health care workers and long term care residents. We're going to see breakthrough infections, and it's likely we see the efficacy in that 95-94% drop as Covid goes through the entire population.
