Disinformation.

AXXA: where in this report (thegatewaypundit's source) does the CDC admit vaccinated people are at a higher risk?: https://www.cdc.gov/respiratory-viruses/whats-new/covid-19-variant.html

>Nearly all the U.S. population has antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 from vaccination, previous infection, or both, and it is likely that these antibodies will continue to provide some protection against severe disease from this variant.

BA.2.86 may be more capable of causing infection in people who have previously had COVID-19 or who have received COVID-19 vaccines.

...AND in people who've not had the vaccine. AKA: everyone. And EVERYONE who is vaccinated can be infected by any COVID variant. BA.2.86 and all other variants can infect vaccinated people. Read about vaccines. See what they help with. They do not prevent infection. They prevent serious reactions to the infection, helping the body reject the virus ASAP.

Those who are most likely to suffer the most from a COVID infection are those who've never developed antibodies with the help of the vaccine or when getting COVID.

Hence the usual CDC advice in this case:

Get your COVID-19 vaccines, as recommended

Stay home if you are sick

Get tested for COVID-19 if needed

Seek treatment if you have COVID-19 and are at high risk of getting very sick

If you choose to wear a mask, wear a high-quality one that fits well over your nose and mouth

Improve ventilation

Wash your hands

Thegatewaypundit.com is obviously for people who can't understand how to read a CDC report.

No. The CDC actually says the exact opposite of your claim. The CDC says people who have not been injected with Covid mRNA have a lower risk. If you think about it, it's just common sense that the virus evolves to exploit the weakened immune systems of people who have been injected with Covid mRNA that hijacks the body's cells and turns them into spike protein factories.

No - it does not say that in the report. Re-read it. It's really sad that you insist on this disinformation. It's as if you work for a disinformaiton campaign. As I note, the CDC does not exclude the unvaccinated, and of course advises: "Get your COVID-19 vaccines, as recommended." EVERY variant can infect EVERYONE. The mRNA disinformation is also ridiculous.

mRNA vaccines use mRNA created in a laboratory to teach our cells how to make a protein

I knew the mention of mRNA would help you change the subject. It's a differet discussion. The disinformation about it is ridiculous.

The subject is: it's disinformation to state that the "vaccinated likely have a higher risk of infection with new covid variant." They obviously do not. That's not in the CDC report and it's not a logical assumption.

So basically only people who aren't vaccinated and haven't had covid are in the supposed group that is whatever amount less likely to get it but that means we get to throw around misleading titles about those who are vaxxed?
