I don't know about this story - yet, vaccines were never billed as "100%" effective. The early data was protection in the low 90th percentile. The idea was that even if you got the COVID, you would get a milder case that wouldn't necessarily leave you in the ICU on a ventilator. The elderly and those with compromised immune systems or comorbidities could still get it with the vaccine and get quite sick to the point of needing hospitalizations. I got the vaccine and that was the reason why - because if I did get it, I wouldn't get a severe case. I never thought that it was 100% certain that I wouldn't get it. But everyone is different, and there are going to be a certain percentage of those that get a vaccine, have a break through case and end up critically ill. I just don't think it is 30%.
As far as nursing homes, the residents are elderly to start with, probably have other conditions and they are in an enclosed environment. Then you have the staff that may or may not be vaccinated themselves, may be exposed to the unvaccinated, and bringing the germs into the nursing home. It's like the flu - all the residents may have their flu shots, but one person comes in from outside with flu germs and suddenly everyone is sick.
