CDC running vaccination dashboard: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#vaccinations_vacc-total-admin-rate-total https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#vaccinations_vacc-... CDC Breakthrough Case Investigation and Reporting https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covid-19/health-departments/breakthrough-cases.html https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covid-19/health-departments/bre... As of 9.7.2021, of approximately 178M Americans fully vaccinated, there have been 14,115 breakthrough cases requiring hospitalization or who died. I’ll leave it to you to calculate that percentage. For those familiar with the usual limitations of data collection, it’s clear there is no ‘perfect’ count of breakthrough cases, so hospitalization/mortality are the most concrete data available. However, there is reporting beyond just those two categories, so the CDC estimates .04% of those fully vaccinated develop breakthrough cases.
