An American professor of epidemiology at Yale University says that more than 60% of new COVID cases have been vaccinated. “I think the American public has been sold on the vaccine by the research that shows that they reduce the infection of mild to moderate symptomatic infection by somewhere between 60 to 90%,” said professor Harvey Risch.
However, Risch said, the medical establishment is chiefly focused on whether or not the vaccines prevent the spread of COVID-19. In Israel, where the Pfizer vaccine was given to more than half the population, it reduced the spread of the infection by somewhere around 50 to 60%, contributing to herd immunity, Risch said. “But it is not an overnight shutting down of the spread. It is a slow and continuing benefit for society to do that. But it is totally different than each individual’s protection of, say, 90%.”
Many people think getting the vaccine frees them of all restrictions, but that’s not true, Risch said, because while they may not have any symptoms, the vaccine cuts the actual transmission of the virus only by half.
