U.S. Congressman Stephen Lynch Develops
Coronavirus After Second Dose Of Pfizer VaccineFebruary 2. 2021
Stephen Lynch
U.S. congressman, Stephen Lynch, a Democrat from
Massachusetts, has contracted the coronavirus, after receiving two
doses of the Pfizer vaccine. The incident has people questioning the
effectiveness of the vaccine. However, pharmaceutical companies have
expressed that people who have been inoculated can still contract
the virus and pass it on to others.
The irony is back on December 8, 2020, the New York
Times newspaper reported the vaccines would prevent people from
getting sick, "The two vaccines that will potentially get
authorized this month clearly protect people from getting
sick with Covid-19. But the clinical trials that delivered these
results were not designed to determine whether vaccinated people
could still spread the coronavirus without developing symptoms."
The coronavirus has been going around Congress. CBS
News reported, "Several House Democrats tested positive for COVID-19
earlier in January after spending time in lockdown with Republican
members who refused to wear masks during the attack on the Capitol
on January 6."

U.K. Coronavirus Vaccine: Side Effects, Safety, and Who Gets
It First
Published Dec. 8, 2020 - Updated Dec. 14, 2020 - The
two vaccines that will potentially get authorized this month clearly
protect people from getting sick with Covid-19. But the clinical
trials that delivered these results were not designed to determine
whether vaccinated people could still spread the coronavirus without
developing symptoms. That remains a possibility. We know that people
who are naturally infected by the coronavirus can spread it while
they’re not experiencing any cough or other symptoms.
