Experts from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have concluded that not receiving a coronavirus vaccine is nearly thirty times more likely to be hospitalized with COVID-19 than having immunity thanks to the preparation. The researchers analyzed cases of SARS-CoV-2 infections that occurred between May and July of this year, the period during which the delta variant was spreading in the United States.
- Those who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19 are 29 times more likely to be hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2 infection than those who have been fully vaccinated.
- These are the conclusions of a study conducted by the CDC. The center’s experts analyzed 43 thousand. Cases occurred in Los Angeles between May and July this year
- Research results show how important it is to get vaccinated against the SARS-CoV-2 virus – experts confirm

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published Analyze 43 thousand. Cases of COVID-19 among people over 16 years old. The cases investigated took place between the beginning of May and the end of July this year.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention experts looked at confirmed infections in the 9.6 million Los Angeles County residents who have been tested for SARS-CoV-2, according to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.
The CDC study showed that of the analyzed group of 43,127 COVID-19 cases, 25 percent. They were fully vaccinated, about 3 percent. They are people who have been partially vaccinated, while the remaining 71.4 percent. Cases have been detected in people who have taken any dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Among patients vaccinated and COVID-19, hospitalization rates were “significantly lower” at 3%. Only 0.5 percent. People vaccinated with COVID-19 required intensive care, 0.2 percent. Need a respirator to breathe. 6 percent people from the partially vaccinated group were hospitalized, 1% referred to the intensive care unit, and 0.3 percent. connected to a respirator.
New research on the effectiveness of the vaccine
The hospitalization rate for unvaccinated people was 29.2 times higher than for fully vaccinated people – CDC experts point out. The number of infections in the unvaccinated group was five times greater than the number of people who contracted SARS-CoV-2 despite taking the preparation.
According to scientists The study results clearly show the importance of taking the COVID-19 vaccine, Especially in the context of spreading Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 virus.
“Hospitality and infection rates indicate that market-approved vaccines effectively protect against SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19 disease during the period of dynamic increase in delta-variable transmission,” he wrote in the commentary to the study.
Publication Efforts Vaccination against COVID-19 Besides introducing additional infection control measures, it is necessary to reduce the number of hospitalizations and deaths from illness caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus” – it was written.
