Original Note:
The tweet misinterprets a CDC report that a new variant BA.2.86 is "more contagious among vaccinated individuals" but this means more so than other variants, not more than in unvaccinated people. It is ALSO more contagious than other variants in previously infected people. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2023/08/25/covid-variant-ba-2-86-pirola/
