ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Yankees are dealing with a COVID outbreak on their coaching and support staff, with three confirmed cases.
Third base coach Phil Nevin and first base coach Reggie Willits and an unspecified support staff member tested positive, the team announced Tuesday.
All three cases are considered “breakthrough positives,” since they had been fully vaccinated.
Manager Aaron Boone said there are other staff members and coaches “still pending,’’ and some staff members had been sent home. Nevin was under quarantine in Tampa.

Yankees’ COVID outbreak: Everything we know so far | More positive tests, ‘breakthrough’ cases coming?
There might be more: Pitching coach Matt Blake was absent from Tuesday’s game. Bullpen coach Mike Harkey handled his duties, visiting reliever Jonathan Loaisiga on the mound in the seventh inning. Mario Garza, a player development coordinator with minor-league managing experience, handled first base coach duties while bench coach. Bench coach Carlos Mendoza served as third base coach.

Apparently explaining breakthrough cases is a real problem for the CDC. So much so that they beginning in May they have decided to no longer report them unless they result in hospitalization or death.

They had to do something because eventually breakthrough cases would have helped expose the lie that the “vaccines” are 95% effective at preventing people from becoming infected.
For the record the 95% figure includes anyone who was injected and then did not contract Covid. This includes people who were not even exposed and therefore would never have gotten it anyway, which is of course most people since the actual viral attack rate is well under 5% for most populations. For anyone interested, here is how they calculate the 95% rate and what it actually means…
