RICHMOND, Va. According to new data from the Virginia Department of Health, 1,063 fully-vaccinated Virginians have tested positive for COVID-19. That s less than one percent of all COVID-19 case numbers.

It is highly unusual, and when it occurs, it is surprising, explained Rebekah Butterfield, epidemiologist with the Richmond Henrico Health District.
