Three Hawaii residents who were fully vaccinated against the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus have tested positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus, according to the Hawaii Department of Health (DOH). All three patients had received both doses of the Pfizer /BioNTech or Moderna vaccines, reported KITV4. They all experienced mild symptoms and did not appear to spread the disease to others, the DOH told the news station. 19 vaccines don’t prevent infection, however they mitigate severe symptoms and lower the risk of hospitalization, health experts say. One of the patients, an Oahu-based health care worker, received the second and final dose of the vaccine in January. The worker traveled to several U.S. cities about a month later, and tested positive following routine testing upon returning to Hawaii as per travel protocol. Contract tracing hasn’t identified any additional infections among close contacts of the health care worker. It isn’t clear which vaccines each of the three patients received.
