A Fact Check

Gateway Pundit beats up on the CDC for listing as "unvaccinated" those who die within 14 days of their first Covid-19 vaccine shot. In this case the CDC is correct and GP is wrong.

No vaccine takes effect immediately, it takes some days or even weeks to build immunities in the body. It is the reason why the DrsC get their annual flu shot a month before the real flu season begins. 

Not only that, no one dies immediately after contracting the corona virus. If they die within 14 days of getting their first shot, they've had the disease for several days at least and most probably contracted it before the shot.

So the CDC is correct and GP appears to have been looking for nits to pick.
