BOSTON (December 20, 2021) – Today the Massachusetts Department of Public Health released a review of breakthrough COVID-19 cases in vaccinated Massachusetts residents and found nearly 97% of all breakthrough cases in the Commonwealth have not resulted in hospitalization or death. Additionally, thereview found unvaccinated residents are five times more likely to become infected than fully vaccinated residents (two doses of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine or one dose of Johnson & Johnson) and unvaccinated residents are 31 times more likely to become infected than fully vaccinated residents who have received a booster.

The review also found that 99.9% of breakthrough cases among fully vaccinated people under the age of 60 did not result in death. Among the breakthrough cases for residents over the age of 60, 97% did not result in death. No deaths have been reported in breakthrough cases among those under age 30.

“The data are clear. This review shows that fully vaccinated people in Massachusetts have near-universal protection from severe illness and death and that boosters are demonstrating even stronger protection from COVID,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Marylou Sudders. “Amid the season of gathering indoors and the emerging Omicron variant, the time to get vaccinated and boosted is now. It is the best gift of protection for yourself and your loved ones.”

“Vaccination continues to be the most effective tool we have against Omicron and all COVID-19 variants,” said Acting DPH Commissioner Margret Cooke. “The data indicates that fully vaccinated and boosted individuals are well protected from severe outcomes of COVID-19, including hospitalization and death, and the Department of Public Health strongly urges all residents to get vaccinated and, when appropriate, get a booster.”

    This ‘public health study’ is propaganda and attempts to cover and distract from the fact that the vaccines are a complete failure.
    Anyone with a moderate level of education can engage in limited research and be informed on how dangerous these injections are. Keep in mind, this injection is not a ‘vaccination’. A vaccine triggers an immune response.
    However, these injections are by DESIGN not intended trigger an immune response, but rather to build antibodies in response to being INJECTED with the COVID spike protein. That’s correct; the scientific/clinical basis of these injections is to introduce the Covid Spike protein into your cells via ACE2 receptor. The mRNA is supposed to then synthesize the cell’s machinery and create more spike protein to cause the antibodies to be generated. That’s the basic science behind these mRNA injections. It is no secret.
    it is not intended to prohibit transmission and its not designed to stop infection. Its all about the production of antibodies. But that is NOT an immune response. Its apples and oranges.
    In theory this science can work; but in practice it is truly experimental and the side effects can be devastating. Stay away from this experimental injection.

    The unvaxxed have a 99% chance of recovery with no hospitalization.
