If you needed more proof that vaccines work, the United States is reporting COVID-19 deaths by vaccination/booster status.
Updated for the week of January 1st, 2022. Our updates are a little slower than Switzerland’s.

NOTE: this is PER 100,000 people.
YES, the data is AGE-STANDARDIZED to account for the different vaccination rates of older and younger individuals. Partially vaccinated NOT included. The data in all the charts is updated weekly (with the latest data available from the source).
You can click the “Change Age Group” button on the top-left to explore data for a specific age group.
•Unvaccinated means 0 doses
•Fully vaccinated means all doses prescribed by the initial vaccination protocol
•Booster means additional dose
How do death rates from COVID-19 differ between people who are vaccinated and those who are not? Highly recommend a read.

Once again, yes, the data is AGE-STANDARDIZED. For those asking for data collection period, please see the top of the graphic. COVID-19 WEEKLY death rate by vaccination status, all ages, January 1st, 2022. This has been UPDATED.

Published in Nature. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. Study out of Kaiser Permanente found 3-dose VE of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine against hospitalization with Delta OR Omicron was >99% across the ENTIRE study population with NO significant waning over time.🧵

Before we get started. YES, this study has AGE DATA AND BREAKDOWN OF COMORBIDITIES. Note this study was funded by Moderna BUT Kaiser Permanente has amazingly solid and pretty clean data when it comes to the vaccination status of its members so keep that in mind.

Just a friendly reminder. Despite what you might hear, there has yet to be a variant that isn’t susceptible to the vaccines.
The term infection refers to the virus entering and being detectable in your system regardless of whether OR NOT it makes you sick, whereas the term illness refers to the virus entering, being detectable in your system AND making you sick. It it important not to conflate the two.
In regards to BA.2. Per @tuliodna, WHO stated:
•There’s NO evidence of a difference in severity between BA.2 & BA.1 (BOTH are Omicron)
•BA.2 is more transmissible than BA.1 BUT the gap is smaller than between Omicron & Delta
•Vaccines are EQUALLY effective against BA.1 & BA.2

Rates of COVID-19 Cases and Deaths by Vaccination Status per the CDC:
Unvaccinated: 2,054 cases per 100k
Vaccinated: 824 cases per 100k
Boosted: 642 cases per 100k

Unvaccinated: 12.0 deaths per 100k
Vaccinated: 1.8 deaths per 100k
Boosted: 0.4 deaths per 100k

Data posted on February 18th, 2022. You can also find breakdowns by age group and vaccine product.
Summary:
•People who were unvaccinated had a greater risk of testing positive for COVID-19 and a greater risk of dying from COVID-19 than people who were fully vaccinated
•Unvaccinated people in all age groups had higher case and death rates than fully vaccinated people

Them: Is there any other vaccine in history that required three doses in a year and yet still didn’t prevent transmission of the virus it was meant to protect against?

Me: Your childhood vaccinations would like a word with you.
But wait, there’s more. Reminder that your TDap: Tetanus-Diphtheria-Pertussis (every 10 years) are technically a repetitive vaccine series or rather boosters during adulthood. In addition, for HPV, the recommended schedule is two doses given 6-12 months apart.

A recent study out of South Africa 🇿🇦 shows:

Unvaccinated + Omicron = Immunity to Omicron ONLY

Vaccinated + Omicron = Immunity to Omicron, Delta, Beta, C.1.2, AND D614G!
Source for information above:
medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
Researchers found Omicron-triggered neutralization is NOT extensively cross-reactive to VOCs, with 20 to 43-fold reductions in titer. In contrast, vaccination followed by “breakthrough” Omicron infection improved cross-neutralization of VOCs, with titers EXCEEDING 1:2900.
