A new US study shows that Covid-19 vaccines provide strong protection against hospitalizations and death, even in cases involving the highly contagious delta variant.
The study, which followed 600.000 people from April to mid-July, found that people who had not been vaccinated were more than 10 times more likely to be hospitalized and 11 times more likely to die than those who were fully vaccinated. Voice of America.
The unvaccinated were 4,5 times more likely to be infected, according to a study published yesterday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The CDC also released two other studies showing that vaccine protection declines in the elderly population, especially those 75 and older.
Studies also show an increase in milder infections among fully vaccinated people.
