Because data matters... This will be my nerdiest thread ever... but important!

Keeping you all posted on our @Survivor_Corps polling on breakthough cases and how many are leading to Long Covid but are not being tracked because they weren’t hospitalized….

1364 Participants

According to @Survivor_Corps polling:

In total, 35 breakthrough infections, 1 Asymptomatic.
20 Cases resulted in Long Covid.
2 Hospitalizations, only one that resulted in Long Covid.

@Survivor_Corps Breakdown by vaccine:

Moderna:
14 Total Breakthrough Infections
4 Resulting in Long Covid
1 Hospitalization (not resulting in Long Covid)

J&J:
9 Total Breakthrough Infections
8 Resulting in Long Covid
2 Hospitalized (1 resulting in Long Covid)

Pfizer:
13 Total Breakthrough Infections
8 Resulted in Long Covid
No hospitalizations

CONCLUSION: Of this cohort of 1364 participants of fully vaccinated individuals, the @CDCgov, based on their reporting standards of only reporting breakthrough cases that end in hospitalization only 3 breakthrough cases would have been recorded, with 1 leading to Long Covid...

By our polling, of this same cohort, there were in fact 35 breakthrough infections, 34 of which were symptomatic, 20 cases that led to Long Covid but only 3 cases that led to hospitalization (two of which didn’t end up with Long Covid).

CDC:
1364 Cohort
3 Breakthrough Cases
1 Case leading to Long Covid

Our Polling:
1364 Cohort
35 Breakthrough Cases
