Firstly, it means that being vaccinated doesn\u2019t prevent you from being infected.  Secondly, a vaccine recipient should be responsible to avoid transmission of COVID-19,\u201d he said.  <\/p>\n<p>Towards the end of last week, the Minister of Health, Dr. Daniel Ngamije said that the country confirmed new COVID-19 cases among vaccine recipients but highlighted that they are not critically ill because the vaccine boosts their immunity to fight the virus.  <\/p>\n<p>Minister Ngamije has reminded the general public that it should be everyone\u2019s concern to fight COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (American CDC) recently recommended vaccinated people to get tested for COVID.<\/p>\n<p>The center explained that cases of fully vaccinated individuals contracting coronavirus are rare, but possible.<\/p>\n<p>Of the 5.2 million people vaccinated in Illinois State, 243 people have been hospitalized with coronavirus, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health while 81 died of complications related to the virus.  <\/p>\n<p>Rwanda has so far vaccinated over 380,000 since the countrywide inoculation program began on 5th March 2021.  <\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-38704 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/1-3394jpg-121265-02e6b.jpg\" alt=\"Vaccine recipients are among people that have been contracting Coronavirus.  \" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{The Director General of Rwanda Biomedical center (RBC), Dr. Sabin Nsanzimana has said that 400 recipients of vaccine shots are among people tested positive in the past few days. }  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":62,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[72,75],"byline":[170],"hashtag":[],"class_list":["post-43731","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-featured-news-home","tag-homenews","byline-igihe"],"bylines":[{"id":170,"name":"IGIHE","slug":"igihe","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":8}],"contributors":[{"id":170,"name":"IGIHE","slug":"igihe","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":8}],"featured_image":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43731","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/62"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43731"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43731\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43731"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43731"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43731"},{"taxonomy":"byline","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/byline?post=43731"},{"taxonomy":"hashtag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtag?post=43731"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
