I already posted this but so far they have already found 89 post
vaccination infections in Minnesota and those are just the ones they
know about.

It's not clear to me what you're getting at. NPR says 130 million doses
have been administered, with 46 million people being fully vaccinated. With
that in mind, you seem to think it's significant that 89 people still got
infected after being vaccinated.

The very first sentence of your linked article says "Health officials
report dozens of fully-vaccinated people have contracted COVID-19 in
Minnesota, a development that wasnt unexpected." What part of "a
development that wasn't unexpected" is confusing you? Did someone tell you
that any of the vaccines would be 100% effective? No, I don't think they
did.

Did any of those 89 people end up in the ICU? How many of them died as a
result of getting infected? What percentage of 46 million is 89? Maybe
those are some of the questions you should be asking. Not "why are masks
still being recommended." This stuff really isn't that hard.

To start with 89 people might just be the tip of the iceberg since we
don't know how many people got infected and didn't go to the doctor.
This was also one fairly small state.

Do not know

however, when you get a vaccine you are de facto infected because they introduce a small bit of the virus into the system which causes an immune reaction

perhaps you are referring to side effects rather than infection

By contrast, my friend who is 64 and lives in jersey got hers quite a while ago
no side effects

This is not that kind of vaccine. There is no corona virus in the
vaccine we are getting.

The infections are really new corona infections and predicted in 5% or
so who are vaccinated depending on which one you get. Even assuming
that is a pessimistic number and it is really only 0.5% you are still
talking about over a million getting infected in spite of the
vaccine..
