However, a Twitter user falsely implied that the death rate for the unvaccinated was inflated by including people who had received only one or two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine. The White House confirmed in an email to that the tweet was based on the CDC’s data from early December. 4, the weekly COVID-19 death rate among unvaccinated adults was 9.74 per 100,000 population, and the rate was 0.1 per 100,000 population for people 18 and older who were fully vaccinated with a booster dose. That’s accurate, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s most recent analysis of data from 24 U.S. Protect yourself and those around you by getting vaccinated and boosted today.
Here’s the deal: Unvaccinated individuals are 97 times more likely to die compared to those who are boosted.
5 tweet from President Joe Biden’s official government Twitter account - said that “unvaccinated individuals are 97 times more likely to die” from COVID-19 “compared to those who are boosted.”
Those who had received a booster vaccine dose as well had a 94% lower risk.Ī Feb. For instance, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study found that during the omicron wave, adults who had received two doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna vaccines had a 79% lower risk of dying or needing a ventilator if hospitalized with COVID-19, compared with unvaccinated adults. The shots are still good at preventing hospitalization or death, though, particularly if someone has received a booster dose.īooster shots are recommended for most people, as these increase and prolong protection against severe disease and also provide some temporary protection against infection and milder illness. Against omicron, however, the vaccines haven’t fared as well and are much worse at preventing infection or mild disease. Subsequent studies have demonstrated that the vaccines are effective under real-world conditions, including against the highly contagious delta variant. The Novavax vaccine, which was authorized in July 2022, had a 90.4% efficacy in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 in adults, prior to the emergence of the omicron variant. Johnson & Johnson, which partly tested its vaccine in South Africa when the beta variant emerged, reported an efficacy of 66% in preventing moderate to severe COVID-19 and an efficacy of 85% in preventing severe or critical COVID-19 in its clinical trial. The Moderna vaccine showed similar results in its clinical trial, with a final efficacy of 93%.
CDC NUMBER OF DEATHS FROM COVID VACCINE FULL
For example, the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, which was the first COVID-19 vaccine to receive full approval from the Food and Drug Administration, showed a final efficacy of 91% against symptomatic illness in its phase 3 trial, meaning that under the conditions of the trial the vaccine reduced the risk of getting sick by 91%. Īgainst earlier forms of the coronavirus, the vaccines were highly effective at preventing symptomatic illness. All of the authorized and approved vaccines are effective at preventing severe COVID-19.
