New research published in a letter to the New England Journal of Medicine shows that it’s unlikely you will get COVID-19 after being fully vaccinated. Researchers studied more than 36,000 health care workers in California. Less than one percent tested positive for COVID-19 two weeks after receiving both doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines. Better yet, not a single vaccinated doctor who contracted COVID-19 was hospitalized or died. While it does appear possible to get COVID-19 even after receiving the vaccine, this study confirms what we saw in the vaccine trials, namely that it dramatically cuts the chances of being hospitalized or dying from the virus.
Few healthcare workers infected after receiving the COVID-19 vaccines
