3 Studies Confirmed That Covid-19 Booster Vaccines Are Helpful
Three new studies by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revealed that the best prevention method against the Omicron variant of Covid-19 is third-dose vaccines.
In the study, in which approximately 88,000 cases were examined in 10 states of the USA, it was determined that the third dose of vaccination in December 2021 and January 2022 prevented hospitalizations by 90 percent, and the protective effect decreased to 57 percent when 6 months passed after the second dose of vaccine.
3. Dose Vaccine 82% Effective Against Covid-19 Omicron Variant
The health agency’s second study, which examined more than 200,000 cases in 10 states, concluded that booster vaccines were 82 percent effective in preventing emergency room admissions from Covid-19.
In the same study, it was revealed that this could only prevent hospitalizations by 38 percent in cases who had the second dose of vaccines 6 months or earlier.
In the third study of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it was determined that while the probability of getting the Omicron variant in people who received the booster vaccine was 149 per 100 thousand, this rate increased to 255 in those who were vaccinated with two doses.
