New data suggests that “fully vaccinated individuals could have higher levels of virus and infect others,” NBC News reports
Yesterday, NBC News correspondent Ken Dilanian shared a concerning post on Twitter that is getting everybody worried about new data that “suggests that fully vaccinated individuals are not just contracting COVID, but could be carrying higher levels of the virus than previously understood.” However, USA Today scrubbed the story from its published story below.
In a tweet, Dilanian said the following:
“New data suggests that fully vaccinated individuals are not just contracting COVID, but could be carrying higher levels of virus than previously understood, facilitating spread, my NBC News colleagues are reporting. New indoor masking guidance expected today.”

A few hours before Ken’s tweet, USA Today also published the piece alluding to the same report from NBC News. However, USA Today scrubbed the bold texts below from its article.
“NBC News, citing unnamed officials aware of the decision, reported it comes after new data suggests vaccinated individuals could have higher levels of virus and infect others amid the surge of cases driven by the delta variant of the coronavirus.”
Below is the original screenshot from USA Today article.
About an hour ago, Dr. Robert Malone weighed in on the story. Dr. Malone noted that the information from the NBC News story is crucial, if true. “Increased titers in previously vaccinated individuals is precisely what one would predict during the waning phase of the immunity post-vaccination if antibody dependent enhancement was occuring,” Dr. Malone added.

Meanwhile, the new information might have led to yesterday’s announcement from the CDC about the new indoor masking guidance.
