This is misinformation (and I call it that because it is being widely repeated in major new sources). It's an improper generalization from what was observed in a very small sample of confirmed Covid cases in the vaccine trials.

- lefrancaiz 6y agoYou're correct. NPR has reported some deaths in vaccinated people in this article. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/04/13/986411423/a-mystery-under-study-how-why-and-when-covid-vaccines-arent-fully-protective https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/04/13/9864114... >So far, more than 74 million people have gotten fully vaccinated in the United States. It's unclear how many have later gotten infected with the coronavirus anyway. But Michigan, Washington and other states have reported hundreds of cases. Most people have gotten only mildly ill, but some have gotten very sick. Some have even died.
