Updated Aug. 6 with CDC analysis of Kentucky (unvaccinated Kentuckians had “2.34 times the odds of reinfection<\/em>“ compared with fully vaccinated) and national analysis in Israel (vaccinated Israelis were 6.72 times more likely to get infected after the shot than after natural infection). More below.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) became one of the latest high-profile figures to get sick with Covid-19, even though he’s fully vaccinated. In a statement Monday, Graham said it feels like he has “the flu,” but is “certain” he would be worse if he hadn’t been vaccinated.<\/strong><\/p>\n While it’s impossible to know whether that’s the case, public health officials are grappling with the reality of an increasing number of fully-vaccinated Americans coming down with Covid-19 infections, getting hospitalized, and even dying of Covid. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) insists vaccination is still the best course for every eligible American. But many are asking if they have better immunity after they’re infected with the virus and recover, than if they\u2019re vaccinated.<\/strong><\/p>\n Increasingly, the answer within the data appears to be \u201dyes.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n The article included the following:<\/p>\n The article notes:<\/p>\n Unfortunately, virologists say no commonly-used test can detect with certainty whether a person is immune. A common misconception is that antibody tests can make that determination. But experts say immunity after infection or exposure often comes without a person producing<\/a> or maintaining measurable antibodies.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because of that reality, people who have had asymptomatic infections \u2014 infections where they suffered no symptoms — have no easy way to know that they’re immune. However, a growing body of evidence indicates that the millions who know they got Covid can be assured they\u2019re unlikely to suffer reinfection, for at least as long of a time period that scientists have been able to measure. Possibly far beyond.<\/strong><\/p>\n This is an experimental vaccine. Remember that when you make your decision as to whether or not you are going to receive the vaccine. Meanwhile, there is nothing wrong with washing your hands frequently.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There are still a lot of things we don’t know about Covid-19 or the Covid-19 vaccine.
