"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

It's in the tables in the original MMWR I posted: www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/pdfs/mm7044e1-H.pdf . Click to open if these screen shots of those tables make it too hard to read.Rick wrote: I'm sorry SC, but could you please post the actual numbers if they are being tracked? The text you've copied doesn't show the actual numbers of re-infections vs vaccinated breakthrough cases. I'm not saying those numbers are not listed anywhere, I'm just saying I can't find them.

You aren't reading it right. 
It's 9% of unvaccinated (89 of 1,020) are re-infected vs 5% of vaccinated (324 of 6,328) with Moderna-vaccinated individuals being even better at 4.2%.
None of us has any true idea of what people are reading (it's not like the CDC provides web stats of viewership or page clicks, but this survey should scare the bejesus out of us all), but the data is there for all to see so the title of this thread is flat out wrong, as you yourself have just discovered. The media is what it is and, as I've urged til I'm blue in the face, always go to the source and read it for yourself. It's why I videotape political debates, town hall meetings, etc, rather than just telling you what I heard spoken, or sharing news coverage of it. Nothing beats the first-hand source and thinking about it critically.
