Anyone have any data that I can show my neo-lib family re: breakthrough cases that might show them how lovely it is to go unmasked around people, just because they're vaccinated? They just don't care anymore, and think it's a license to go back to taking zero precautions, and roll their eyes when I bring it up. Is there any irrefutable, easy to digest data out there that might get through to them that this is still very much a dangerous thing, even with vaccinations?

I live with them, and have a preexisting condition. I'm pretty angry.

Data is a moving target right now. We know breakthrough and waning immunity are a thing, but the data is kind of a mess.

Your best bet is probably the data out of Israel.

good, it was a loving trip to once again be arguing with libs back in May or whenever to wear their god drat masks while they were running or biking and getting the "well I'm vaccinated why should I wear them outside??" shitlib response

I honestly hate those more than the anti vaxers. My building super is one. Bruuuuuh. Don't worry. I'm vaccinated!

Looking at what I can find on this, it looks like it's 600 breakthrough cases out of 3 million people. Am I way off on this?

Basically, I have no more pandemic bubble, but I am 3x Moderna'd. Am I way overestimating the likelihood of my getting ill? I'm among the most cautious people I know with this, because I can't afford to lose any more functionality than I've already lost from my preexisting health issues. If it really is .02%, then I feel a lot better, but I've been concerned that it's WAY more than that.

I don't think you can currently draw any conclusions like this. You should continue following CDC guidance, and common sense attempts at personal safety.

Oversharing maybe, but my kid showed up before he was supposed to and had to spend a month in the NICU. He’s completely fine now, but if this had happened during COVID there’s a high chance he wouldn’t have made it.
