Many catching virus after first jab in West Bengal, turning silent spreaders: Doctors

在西孟加拉邦，很多人在注射第一剂疫苗后感染了病毒，成为隐性传播者

KOLKATA: Doctors and scientists have flagged off concerns about a section of vaccinated population becoming silent carriers and infecting those yet to be inoculated. There have been several instances of vaccine recipients develo symptoms within days of vaccination and testing positive but doctors are more concerned about several others who may also have contracted the virus but are asymptomatic and so a greater threat to others.

加尔各答：医生和科学家已经开始担心一部分接种疫苗的人群会成为隐性携带者，并感染那些尚未接种疫苗的人。已经有几例疫苗接种者在接种后几天出现症状，检测呈阳性，但医生更担心的是其他可能也感染了病毒，但没有症状的人，他们对他人构成的威胁更大。

While the early breakthrough Covid cases could be due to different strains of viruses getting accelerated after the vaccine dose as has been detected in a study in Israel, others say it could be due to people drop their guard a little too early after vaccination or catching the virus while waiting for the jab at vaccination centres.

以色列的一项研究发现，接种后仍感染可能是由于接种疫苗后不同种类的毒株加速变异，其他人则说，这可能是由于接种疫苗后，人们过早地放松了警惕，或者在疫苗接种中心等待接种时感染了病毒。

A majority of the critical cases in hospitals are those who have not been vaccinated. While they could have acquired the infection from anywhere, doctors suspect some of them may have received it from inoculated family members who got infected, were asymptomatic, and then spread it.

医院里的大多数危重病例是那些没有接种疫苗的人。虽然他们可能从其他地方感染了这种病毒，但医生怀疑其中一些人可能是从无症状的家庭成员那里感染的，然后把病毒传给了别人。

Subhrojyoti Bhowmick, clinical director (research & academics) at Peerless Hospital, said it could take six-eight weeks from the first dose for a vaccinated person to develop the maxmum level of antibody provided the second dose has also been administered. “In the intervening period, the person is susceptible to infection but in a majority of cases, he or she will be asymptomatic. Hence, they will not know that they are infected and will infect others around them,” he said.

Peerless医院的临床主任(研究和学术)Subhrojyoti Bhowmick说，假设已经注射了第二剂，那接种疫苗的人从第一剂到产生最高水平的抗体可能需要6 - 8周的时间。“在此期间，患者易受感染，但在大多数情况下，他或她将是无症状的。因此，他们不会知道自己被感染了，也不知道自己会传染给周围的人。”

Even after the two jabs, people fail to follow the given SOP guidelines and they catch the virus because of their own over confidence. Vaccines are to improve your own immune system and sure, it is not meant for you to roam around freely without taking precautions.

打了两针之后，人们仍然没有遵守预防规定，他们因过度自信而感染了病毒。疫苗是为了加强你们的免疫系统，但这不意味着让你们可以在没有做好预防措施的情况下自由走动。

Vaccination centers are sometimes very crowded and have poor ventilation resulting in transmission of virus.
