2. The findings of a recent study indicate that those who have received both doses of the vaccine are more likely to exhibit signs of breakthrough COVID [3].

3. In the study, 74 per cent of the total cases were observed in individuals who had received the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, the Moderna vaccine, or the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which generally resulted in mild or moderate cases.

4. In the study, 39 individuals were examined, including 16 vaccinated individuals who tested positive for COVID and 23 vaccinated individuals who tested negative. The volunteers were primarily white and male. They found that the number of vaccinated infected individuals was younger than the number of vaccinated uninfected individuals.

The symptoms reported by those who tested positive and showed symptoms were almost common.
