At least 18 individuals in Massachusetts who were fully vaccinated against COVID-19 have died of the virus in the past week, the state’s health officials said Tuesday.

Over the past week, health officials recorded 2,500 new breakthrough COVID-19 cases, 496 of whom were admitted to the hospital, and 18 new deaths. The latest data brings the state’s total to 12,641 infections and 124 deaths involving individuals who have been fully vaccinated against the virus, according to the state Department of Public Health’s coronavirus tracker.

The figures only represent 0.01% of fully vaccinated individuals who have been hospitalized, 0.29% of those who have been infected, and 0.003% of those who have died.

Overall, the new figures put the state’s total number of confirmed coronavirus infections since the beginning of the pandemic to 690,268. The state’s total death toll is now at 17,784.

Health officials in Massachusetts continue to urge residents to get vaccinated against the virus, noting that while breakthrough cases are rising, most new infections being reported involve the unvaccinated.

"We do need to put some of these numbers in a more realistic context just so people, you know, so people don't panic, so people make the right decisions based on the actual risk," Dr. Shira Doron, an epidemiologist at Tufts Medical Center, told NBC 10 Boston.

She noted that some breakthrough hospitalizations are due to other underlying medical conditions.

"In those cases, the positive test might be old, a false positive, an asymptomatic positive, a mild infection or an infection that is contributing to the illness or death of someone sick with another primary illness but not the sole cause of it," she added.

A growing number of studies show that current COVID-19 vaccines provide strong protection against severe to critical cases of coronavirus, hospitalizations, and deaths. However, their effectiveness has fallen amid the spread of the highly contagious Delta variant.

Experts believe the decline in efficacy could be a result of waning vaccine immunity, a lapse in COVID-19 precautions, the spread of the Delta variant, or a combination of all three factors.

The most complicit in the genocide are the fuckwits calling an experimental gene therapy, for which you have no legal recourse, "the jab".

These are the biggest faggots of all and they have fallen for jew word games used to trivialize being a test monkey.

Simple common sense and a little critical thinking skills and the whole world would reject this JAB with passion. Politicians would be removed from office. The fact that so many humans lack these two things scares me more than the JAB.
