Hundreds of staffers at two major hospitals in San Francisco have tested positive for coronavirus in July, with most of them being breakthrough cases of the highly infectious Delta variant, The New York Times reported Saturday evening.

The University of California, San Francisco Medical Center told media outlets that 183 of its 35,000 staffers tested positive. Of those infected, 84% were fully vaccinated, and just two vaccinated staff members required hospitalization for their symptoms.

At Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital, at least 50 members out of the total 7,500 hospital staff were infected, with 75-80% of them vaccinated. None of those staffers required hospitalization.

UCSF's chief medical officer, Dr. Lukejohn Day, told The Times the numbers from his hospital showed just how important and effective vaccinations are.

1. Geez! Don't tell me this NOW!

I have surgery scheduled for this coming Friday. Not in San Francisco, but this is very scary!

2. Gee. If only Biden had done something, said something, they would have totally listened

🙄

This ain't Biden's fault.
84% were vaxed.

3. Progressive California has unvaccinated hospital staff.

Sigh. I don't get it.

8. There are lots of maskholes in CA too.

Orange County had protests last year because the poor babes wanted to go to the gym and to bars and if they can't do that then their lives are over and then they cry boo hoo hoo and ruin it for everyone else. One of the reasons CA opened too early and had outbreaks was the pressure from the GQP supporters who were loud and all over social media. Those in their 20s and 30s deserve to get Covid...that is Karma baby!!! If they drop dead I will say "tough shit, Darwin wins again."

Vaccinated required hospitalization. Seems like the vax works well.
