In the middle of a #pandemic, the number of "breakthrough cases" of #COVID19 in the vaccinated will appear to be large because the virus is circulating so widely. However, if you do the actual math, you'll find that the risk of getting COVID is much lower if you are vaccinated.

Heard on "On the Media" that the breakthrough rate is not only less than expected, but spectacularly less than expected. But this is complicated by the fact that the vaccine also reduces symptoms.
