A new US based study on Covid-19 has found that less than one percent of fully vaccinated Americans experience a breakthrough infection

The federal government data from the Centre for Disease Control says vaccinated people have a 0.004 percent chance of ending up in hospital with Covid-19 and it’s an even lower figure when it comes to developing severe illness which results in death.

Out of 163 million vaccinated citizens, only around 6,000 have experienced a severe breakthrough Covid-19 infection

The statistics are a promising sign on the road to normalcy as many nations continue to open up and move into a post-pandemic world.

The analysis also found that more than 90 percent of current Covid-related hospitalisations and deaths are being recorded in unvaccinated people.
