marines and sailors . The first M . L .

00:03.262 --> 00:05.207
G . I'm captain level . Your group

00:05.207 --> 00:05.120
surgeon here to talk a little bit about

00:05.120 --> 00:07.453
covid cases among immunized individuals .

00:07.453 --> 00:09.990
So , first has the vaccine failed ? If

00:09.990 --> 00:12.323
you get the infection after vaccination .

00:12.323 --> 00:14.630
No , the vaccine has not failed . Quite

00:14.630 --> 00:17.140
the contrary actually , positive cases

00:17.140 --> 00:19.362
and immunized individuals are predicted

00:19.362 --> 00:21.750
and do not indicate vaccine failure As

00:21.750 --> 00:23.917
community transmission of the COVID-19

00:23.917 --> 00:26.083
virus persists . Covid infections will

00:26.083 --> 00:28.250
continue to occur in highly vaccinated

00:28.250 --> 00:31.050
populations . However , new infection

00:31.050 --> 00:33.230
and vaccinated populations is expected

00:33.230 --> 00:35.452
at lower rates than in populations with

00:35.452 --> 00:37.640
low vaccine rates has a greater number

00:37.640 --> 00:39.362
of people get vaccinated . The

00:39.362 --> 00:41.362
probability of cases being found in

00:41.362 --> 00:43.584
vaccinated individuals will predictably

00:43.584 --> 00:45.640
increase . All right . So if you can

00:45.640 --> 00:47.807
still get covid , why get vaccinated ?

00:47.807 --> 00:49.973
Because the inherent benefits of being

00:49.973 --> 00:52.196
fully immunized ? Mean that if covid is

00:52.196 --> 00:54.251
contracted , the vaccine will reduce

00:54.251 --> 00:56.084
the severity and duration of the

00:56.084 --> 00:57.973
disease . It will also lessen the

00:57.973 --> 01:00.084
likelihood that you can pass covid on

01:00.084 --> 01:02.084
to other people . So why does being

01:02.084 --> 01:04.307
fully vaccinated make it less likely to

01:04.307 --> 01:06.362
spread ? The vaccine works with your

01:06.362 --> 01:08.362
body to build natural protection so

01:08.362 --> 01:10.473
your immune system will recognize the

01:10.473 --> 01:12.140
virus immediately and work to

01:12.140 --> 01:14.029
neutralize it quickly . This will

01:14.029 --> 01:16.029
reduce its ability to reproduce and

01:16.029 --> 01:18.084
vaccinated individuals , which means

01:18.084 --> 01:20.029
there's less of the virus that can

01:20.029 --> 01:21.862
spread to others . Things . Keep

01:21.862 --> 01:24.029
changing . What else should you know ,

01:24.029 --> 01:26.196
continued monitoring and study vaccine

01:26.196 --> 01:28.084
effectiveness against variants of

01:28.084 --> 01:30.140
concern is important and ongoing . A

01:30.140 --> 01:32.084
vaccinated individual can still be

01:32.084 --> 01:34.307
exposed to and contract the virus , but

01:34.307 --> 01:34.010
the immune response will likely contain

01:34.010 --> 01:36.177
the virus , decreased spread to others

01:36.177 --> 01:38.399
and result in low severity of illness .

01:39.740 --> 01:42.460
Mhm . Mhm mm hmm .

01:43.440 --> 01:43.850
Yeah .
