New York City Mayor Eric Adams tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday, his office said.

City Hall said Adams will quarantine at Gracie Mansion, where he will be working remotely this week.

“This morning, Mayor Adams woke up with a raspy voice and, out of an abundance of caution, took a PCR test that has now come back positive,” Press Secretary Fabien Levy said in a statement Sunday afternoon. “At this time, the mayor has no other symptoms, but he is already isolating and will be canceling all public events for the remainder of the week.”

Adams, who is vaccinated against the coronavirus, will be working remotely while he is isolating, the statement said.

He will also “immediately,” start taking anti-viral medications, which are “offered for free to NYC residents and (Adams) encourages all New Yorkers eligible for these meds to take them as well,” Levy said.

[Kamaji]

They get that they won't get it. 

They get infected the same as the vaccinated.

They get infected the same as the vaccinated.

But the vaccinated are currently much more likely to get sick from Covid than the unvaccinated.

Wasn't he at the Gridiron Club superspreader event?

I don't recall having a raspy voice as a Covid symptom.  Out of precaution, he took a test that probably would have come up positive two weeks ago, since the jabs he took protect the virus from the body's natural immune system.  Meanwhile, no one is offering him an antibody test to see if his body is fighting off Covid.  So if he just has a cold, he will still be carrying around those coated SARS- 2 viri around next week.

He will also “immediately,” start taking anti-viral medications, which are “offered for free to NYC residents and (Adams) encourages all New Yorkers eligible for these meds to take them as well,” Levy said.

A treatment for Covid?  When did they start offering that?

But the vaccinated are currently much more likely to get sick from Covid than the unvaccinated.

Not really, no.

[DB]

Not really, no.

Go look at the numbers. Not long ago the UK reported the vast majority of those getting sick were the vaccinated.

I have; unvaccinated are still getting it as well.

[DB]

I have; unvaccinated are still getting it as well.

They get it but as a percentage of each group they are getting it far less than the vaccinated.

[Kamaji]

They get it but as a percentage of each group they are getting it far less than the vaccinated.

And when they do get it, they tend to get more severe symptoms.

The Jab protects the virus from your immune system.  Jabbed people become carriers,  spreading the disease to others.  Unjabbed people who recover from the disease effectively block transmission to others.
