Twelve Cattaraugus County residents who were vaccinated for COVID-19 later tested positive for the coronavirus.

Dr. Kevin D. Watkins, Cattaraugus County's director of public health, told the Board of Health Tuesday that the residents — eight women and four men — were fully vaccinated when they tested positive for COVID-19.

Two of the residents who were vaccinated and later tested positive died, although their deaths have not yet been linked to COVID-19, Watkins said.

Of the 12 who were vaccinated, three received the one-shot Johnson & Johnson, four got the Moderna vaccine and five got the Pfizer vaccine, Watkins said. Five showed symptoms of the virus and seven were asymptomatic.

Watkins said the “breakthrough” cases, which he called rare, raise the uncertainty whether fully-vaccinated individuals can be contagious to the community.

Guess they want to lock us down for another year.

95% effective means 5% not effective.  This should be no surprise.

Vaccines better your chances, not eliminate all risk.
