Over 100 fully vaccinated people contract COVID-19 in Washington state, officials say
Over 100 people in Washington state have tested positive for COVID-19 more than two weeks after becoming fully vaccinated against the disease, officials said.
At least eight people with breakthrough cases have been hospitalized.
The Washington State Department of Health said further investigation will help identify patterns among the breakthrough cases, such as if a variant of the novel coronavirus may have caused the infection.
On a side note:
Several European countries have temporarily suspended the use of the Astrajabs, including Denmark, Austria and Norway, as well as Thailand.
On March 16, Sweden became the latest country to suspend the AstraZeneca jab.
Anders Tegnell said the pause was a "temporary measure" until the European Medicines Agency (EMA) had completed an investigation into reports of people with severe blood clots.
Germany's vaccine regulator said nine people have died from a rare blood clot in the brain after taking the AstraZeneca
