An outbreak of Covid-19 has been confirmed on the Royal Navy's flagship, HMS Queen Elizabeth.
The BBC has been told there have been around 100 cases on the aircraft carrier, which is part way through a world tour.
Several other warships in the fleet accompanying it are also affected.

Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said all crew on the deployment had received two doses of a Covid-19 vaccine and the outbreak was being managed.

HMS Queen Elizabeth is about a quarter of the way through a 28-week deployment leading the Carrier Strike Group (CSG).

It has now entered the Indian Ocean, and the Royal Navy says it is due to continue on its voyage to Japan later this year.

What’s the crew count. Technically this can be a measure of efficacy if everyone onboard got exposed.

Isn't all the military personnel on the ship already being vaccinated?

it's not working as planned, isn't it?

Actually the efficacy if the AstraZeneca vaccine against symptomatic illness from the Indian Delta variant is around 60-70% and so maybe 300 would have been infected if they had not been vaccinated.

 

[Ali_Baba]

Most of the people on these ships are young and will not be that affected of the symptoms and of course all the senior staff would be double vaccinated.

The vaccines do not stop you from catching Covid - they stop you from having a very horrible time of it when you do and more importantly - they are designed to stop you form dieing from it.

The Type 45's are ultra-modern - far more than anything that China can field right now - and in many respects - maybe too modern which is why they are still problemmatic from time to time as proven here.
