Gov. J.B. Pritzker is remaining silent in the face of a new scientific report indicating getting vaccinated does not slow the transmission of COVID-19.
Pritzker has gone to great lengths to push vaccination in the state.
The governor did not respond to a request for comment from Prairie State Wire on the state’s vaccination plans after the new findings.
The study published in The Lancet punctures arguments Pritzker and authorities have been using to insist on vaccination.
“Although vaccines remain highly effective at preventing severe disease and deaths from COVID-19, our findings suggest that vaccination is not sufficient to prevent transmission of the delta variant in household settings with prolonged exposures,” the study reads.
The Lancet is one of the world’s most trusted medical journals.
Pritzker was outed in early October for a proliferation of outright false claims about the success of vaccination.
Pfizer scientists last month were caught on camera noting natural immunity is superior to vaccination when it comes to reinfection.
Only days ago Pritzker signed into law a bill that allows employees to be stripped of their jobs for not complying with COVID mandates — such as vaccines and masks.
The Lancet’s study is just one of many calling into question the vaccine’s benefit.
A February 2021 article in the New England Journal of Medicine of 596,618 Israelis, some of whom took the Pfizer vaccine, reported 39 deaths due to COVID among the non-vaccinated and 20 COVID deaths among the vaccinated, a reduction in risk of COVID death of 0.0003%.
A Michigan study between Jan. 1 and Mar. 3, 2020 of COVID vaccinated residents found that 246 "considered fully vaccinated were later diagnosed with the virus, and three have died."
