Examples of the government (and media) promoting the vaccines as foolproof:

CDC Director: “Vaccinated people do not carry the virus, don’t get sick.” 30 March

President Biden: “You’re not gonna get COVID if you have these vaccinations.” 22 July

CDC and FDA: “People who are fully vaccinated are protected from severe disease and death, including from the variants currently circulating in the country such as Delta.”
Joint CDC And FDA Statement On Vaccine Boosters, 8 July

Even back in January these were being sold to us as 100% effective (though that was not consistent with vaccine trial data):
“The Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are “essentially 100 percent effective against serious disease,” Dr. Paul Offit, the director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, said.”

Examples of people getting sick:

Nearly 30 Fully Vaccinated Louisiana Residents Have Died With COVID-19, 8 July

79 Fully Vaccinated Massachusetts Residents Have Died From Breakthrough COVID-19 Infections, Data Shows, 14 July

All 100 cases of COVID on this aircraft carrier and cases on “several other warships” occurred in people who were fully vaccinated.

In Scotland: “… from June onwards, new trends have emerged. More cases are now among people either partially or fully vaccinated, making up almost half of all new daily infections (13,432 of 33,152).”
Surge Goes On, 12 July

Cape Cod: “Town Manager Alex Morse told ABC News on Monday that the “vast majority” of the COVID-19 cases associated with the town’s outbreak are among vaccinated individuals.”
Cape Cod COVID-19 Cluster Grows To More Than 130 Infected, Prompting Renewed Mitigation Efforts, 21 July

Israel, one of the most vaccinated places on the planet, is experiencing a COVID surge. TrialSiteNews said:
“TrialSite delved into a recent data trove made available by the Israeli government and has found that a majority of those now vaccinated actually, according to the numbers, face as much risk testing positive for the Delta-driven SARS-CoV-2 infection as unvaccinated individuals. Meaning, at this point, the vaccine appears to have a negligible effect on an individual as to whether he/she catches the current strain. Moreover, the data indicates that the current vaccines used (Moderna, Pfizer-BioNTech, AstraZeneca) may have a decreasing effect on reduced hospitalizations and death if one does get infected with the Delta variant.”
COVID-19 Case Data in Israel: A Troubling Trend?, 16 July

These 27 deaths in Tennessee “are among the state’s more than 1,000 “breakthrough” cases … cases in which fully vaccinated people have contracted the virus.”
27 Fully Vaccinated People Have Died In Tennessee, Health Department Says, 23 July

Even the CDC admits the vaccines aren’t working. Out of 25 fully vaccinated miners, 15 were infected within days:
“The low Ct of positive PCR for SARS-CoV-2 despite prior vaccination suggested that a complete vaccination scheme with BNT162b2 [Pfizer] vaccine was not sufficient to prevent symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection and its transmission.”

I’m not saying anything here about how effective the vaccines are. What I’m saying is that this administration, and the many media outlets that are catering to it, are not being truthful.

In addition to no longer trusting the President, his Press Secretary, the CDC and FDA, I also don’t trust the New York Times, The Atlantic, CNN, NPR, Washington Post, and others. They have been parroting the administration’s false message. They have failed to question the adequacy of the vaccine trials or the problems with the vaccines’ effectiveness and safety (side effects). They walk in lockstep, as if there was some meeting where everyone got on board, including Facebook, Twitter, Google, Reddit, and other social media sites. I’m not prone to conspiracy theories, I like data. But it’s getting difficult to find an outlet for news that isn’t deceitful.
