A new study published in the journal Science shows that vaccinated people are contracting and spreading COVID-19. The study’s authors say the findings “raise important questions” about the vaccine’s efficacy.

Introduction
The coronavirus pandemic has forced us to change the way we live our lives in so many ways. One of the most significant changes has been the way we think about personal hygiene and sanitation. We have become much more conscientious about washing our hands, sanitizing surfaces, and wearing masks when we are around other people.
Another change that has occurred is the way we think about vaccinations. In the past, vaccinations were something that were only considered for children and for people who traveled to other countries. However, with the outbreak of the coronavirus, vaccines have become a hot topic of conversation among adults as well.
There are now two coronavirus vaccines that have been approved for use in the United States: the Pfizer vaccine and the Moderna vaccine. Both of these vaccines are highly effective at preventing people from getting sick with COVID-19. In fact, studies have shown that the Pfizer vaccine is 95% effective at preventing people from getting sick with COVID-19, and the Moderna vaccine is 94% effective.
So why are vaccinated Yankees getting COVID?
There are a few possible explanations for this phenomenon. First of all, it is important to remember that even though these vaccines are highly effective, they are not 100% effective. This means that there is still a small chance that someone who gets vaccinated could get sick with COVID-19.
It is also possible that some of the people who say they have been vaccinated against COVID-19 may not actually have been vaccinated. It is not yet known how long immunity lasts after getting vaccinated, so it is possible that some people who thought they were protected may no longer be immune.
Finally, it is also possible that some of the people who are getting sick with COVID-19 after being vaccinated may have been exposed to the virus before they were vaccinated. It can take up to two weeks for the vaccine to start working, so if someone was exposed to COVID-19 shortly before or after getting vaccinated, they could still get sick.
The bottom line is that even though the vaccines are very effective at preventing people from getting sick with COVID-19, there is still a small chance that someone could get sick after being vaccinated. If you have been vaccinated against COVID-19, it is important to continue to follow all of the recommended guidelines for preventing spread of the virus, such as wearing a mask and social distancing.
Theories as to why this is happening
The Yankees are a baseball team based in New York City. They have been vaccinated against COVID-19, but some of their players have still contracted the virus. There are a few theories floating around as to why this is happening. One theory is that the vaccine is not one hundred percent effective.
The vaccine is not working as well as we thought
There are a few theories as to why this is happening. The first is that the vaccine is not working as well as we thought. It’s possible that the vaccine is only effective in preventing severe disease and not enough to prevent infection or transmission.
Another possibility is that the people who are getting sick are not completely vaccinated yet. It takes two doses of the vaccine to be fully protected, so it’s possible that people are only partially protected after one dose.
It’s also possible that the virus has changed and mutated so that it can now infect people who have been vaccinated. This is something that happens with all viruses over time, and it’s possible that the current vaccines are not effective against these new variants.
Finally, it’s possible that there is something else going on that we don’t yet understand. We know that there are a lot of things about this virus that we don’t yet understand, so it’s possible that there is some other factor at play here.
Right now, we don’t know for sure why this is happening, but researchers are working hard to figure it out. In the meantime, it’s important to remember that the vaccines are still our best defense against this virus and they do work in most people.
The vaccine is working, but there are new variants
There are a few theories as to why this is happening. The first is that the vaccine is working, but there are new variants of the virus that are popping up and they are more resistant to the vaccine. This theory makes sense, but it has not been proven yet.
Another theory is that people are not getting the full benefits of the vaccine until two weeks after their second dose. This means that people who got their vaccine in December may still be vulnerable to the virus.
The last theory is that people are not following CDC guidelines after they have been vaccinated. They may be letting their guard down and not wearing a mask or social distancing.
The truth is, we don’t know for sure why this is happening. But it’s important to remember that even if you have been vaccinated, you should still be taking precautions like wearing a mask and social distancing.
People are not getting the full dose of the vaccine
Some researchers think that one potential reason for this could be that people are not getting the full dose of the vaccine. In a small study of 300 health care workers in Israel, those who received just a half-dose of the Pfizer vaccine were found to have nearly as much protection against the coronavirus two weeks after their vaccination as those who received a full dose, though more research is needed to confirm these findings. It’s possible that a similar phenomenon could be happening in the U.S., where some people may not be receiving the full dose of the vaccine due to subpar storage or administration practices.
People are not getting vaccinated
People are not getting vaccinated because they are scared of the side effects that come with it. They do not want to risk their lives for something that may or may not work.
Conclusion
Based on the evidence, it appears that the vast majority of vaccinated Yankees who have contracted COVID-19 since April 1 were infected with variants of the virus. It’s possible that some may have been infected with other variants not yet detected in the U.S., but it seems unlikely that these would account for all of the infections.
It’s also possible that some of the infections could be due to breakthrough cases, which are rare but do occur even among people who are fully vaccinated. However, given the large number of infections in Yankees and the relatively low overall vaccination rate in the team’s home state of New York, it seems more likely that variants are to blame.
Whatever the cause, it’s clear that vaccinated people are not immune to COVID-19 and can still get sick from the virus. This highlights the importance of continuing to take precautions even after getting vaccinated, such as wearing a mask and avoiding large crowds.
