Some experts have finally gotten the memo that this ISN'T a pandemic of the unvaccinated--by getting COVID themselves. Twelve "super responsible," "risk-averse," triple-jabbed doctors and "health experts" attended a wedding in Wisconsin and caught COVID. They've since infected at least five people, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The five people mentioned in the tweet below were at the wedding.

It's time to "stop calling this a pandemic of the unvaccinated," said Dr. Deb Furr Holden, an epidemiologist who thinks she contracted COVID at the wedding.
Two cheers for Dr. Holden for admitting this--I'd give her three if she went a little further: the mandatory vaccinations for health care workers are pointless. (The Chronicle article is paywalled, but as far as I can tell from Twitter, she has not said this.) Not only are they pointless for stopping the spread of COVID, but they're aggravating the shortage of nurses. IU Health is now asking for help from the Indiana National Guard instead of dropping their vaccine mandate, as several other large hospital systems have done. If you think only about 100 of their 36,000 employees quit because of the mandate, as they claim, I've got a covered bridge to sell you.
In another case of the vaccinated catching COVID, 17 people on the cruise ship Breakaway tested positive. Both passengers and crew were fully vaccinated. Likewise, the cruise ship Celebrity Millennium saw two passengers test positive for COVID last spring--again, everyone aboard was fully vaccinated.
These aren't isolated incidents. Over 84,000 Hoosiers have had breakthrough cases, and those are just the ones we know about. There's no systematic testing of the general public here. Despite the state presenting the data to give the impression that these are rare, breakthrough cases have made up 18% to 36% of weekly cases over the past few months. This is based on past data from official dashboards. Indiana defines a breakthrough as "any individual testing positive for COVID-19 at least 14 days after their final dose (or single-dose) vaccination."
Clearly, vaccinations are doing little or nothing to stop spread. Yet the forced vaccination fanatics keep saying that ditching the mandates is going to kill people--as if firing people wholesale won't hurt anything, and as if people should not be free to make up their own minds.
