Center for Disease Control and Prevention data reviewed by AP showed just 150 of the more than 18,000 Covid-19 deaths in May resulted from “breakthrough” infections in fully vaccinated people.
In other words, 99.2% of the people who died from Covid-19 last month weren’t fully vaccinated against the virus.
The same trend was true with hospitalizations: Fewer than 1,200 of the 853,000 people hospitalized last month were fully vaccinated against the virus.
Recent modeling suggests the U.S will hit 1,000 deaths per day again in 2022, according to a professor of health metrics sciences at the University of Washington in Seattle.
Nearly all COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. now are in people who weren't vaccinated, a staggering demonstration of how effective the shots have been and an indication that deaths per day—now down to under 300—could be practically zero if everyone eligible got the vaccine.
An Associated Press analysis of available government data from May shows that "breakthrough" infections in fully vaccinated people accounted for fewer than 1,200 of more than 853,000 COVID-19 hospitalizations. That's about 0.1 percent. And only about 150 of the more than 18,000 COVID-19 deaths in May were in fully vaccinated people. That translates to about 0.8 percent, or five deaths per day on average.
The AP analyzed figures provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC itself has not estimated what percentage of hospitalizations and deaths are in fully vaccinated people, citing limitations in the data.
