It feels like this particular incidence is the source of so much panic and misinformation. Is there news here? Yes, it appears as though we now know that vaccinated individuals can spread COVID if they get infected. But the CDC still maintains that infections in the vaccinated are rare, and if it does happen, the effects are mild. Provincetown proves all of this out.
It feels like the media is using this as an opportunity to paint the worst possible picture - an uncontrollable outbreak which scares the cautious, and a snap back to mid 2020 restrictions which scares everyone else.
The town manager of Provincetown put it well when he essentially said that breakthrough cases were expected on some level, that this whole incident is proof that vaccines work, and that vaccines are our only way out of this.
I also can’t help but feel like Provincetown is getting a lot of attention because it’s a hedonistic LGBTQ destination that’s easy for people to turn their nose up at.
