The CDC director said that vaccines are working as intended, with low severe side effects.

Roughly 6,000 COVID-19 infections have been reported in fully vaccinated Americans, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky said Monday.

Current CDC statistics show that as of Sunday, more than 131 million Americans have received at least one dose of a vaccine, and more than 84 million have been fully vaccinated. 

The latter makes up 25.4 percent of the population overall. The 6,000 cases referenced by Walensky, however, represents 0.007 percent of the 84 million who are fully inoculated.

So far, no patients have died or been severely ill.
