CDC study: Unvaccinated 11 times more likely to die from Covid-19

People who are not vaccinated against Covid-19 were 11 times more likely to die of the disease and 10 times more likely to be hospitalized with the disease, a study published on Friday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows. The study looked at 600,000 Covid-19 cases in 13 states from April through mid-July. 'The bottom line is this: We have the scientific tools we need to turn the corner on this pandemic. Vaccination works and will protect us from the severe complications of Covid-19,' CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said Friday.
