Based on approximately 530,000 hospital admissions with confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis in June-August 2021, we estimate 98.6% of hospital admissions with COVID-19 during this period were among unvaccinated people (1 – 7,617/530,000 equals 98.6%). Reports of COVID-related hospitalizations among unvaccinated people range from 95% to 99.9% by state. Based on a recent CDC study of 13 jurisdictions, we used a conservative estimate of 86% of COVID-19 hospitalizations were unvaccinated people.
The data reported from these states indicate that breakthrough cases, hospitalizations, and deaths are extremely rare events among those who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (see Figure 1). The rate of breakthrough cases reported among those fully vaccinated is below 1% in all reporting states, ranging from 0.01% in Connecticut to 0.54% in Arkansas.
The hospitalization rate among fully vaccinated people with COVID-19 ranged from effectively zero (0.00%) in California, Delaware, D.C., Indiana, New Jersey, New Mexico, Vermont, and Virginia to 0.06% in Arkansas. (Note: Hospitalization may or may not have been due to COVID-19.)
The rates of death among fully vaccinated people with COVID-19 were even lower, effectively zero (0.00%) in all but two reporting states, Arkansas and Michigan where they were 0.01%. (Note: Deaths may or may not have been due to COVID-19.)
Davis Enterprise: "In the interest of public health and to ensure the safest possible environment for spectators, coaches and student-athletes, UC Davis will require proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test within 72 hours of the event at all Aggie home football games the rest of this season.
"The policy will go into effect starting with the Saturday, Oct. 2 contest against Idaho." — movielover
Interesting. The elites didn't wear masks at the Emmy's, Obama's birthday bash in Martha's Vineyard, or even Aggie / Mayor London Breed when out partying recently. (She has twice now broken her own rules, and referred to her critics as "fun police".) — movielover
