Funny that who knew?
A new study found that countries with low levels of vaccination against the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) have recorded fewer cases of infection compared to well-vaccinated countries.
The study was published in the European Journal of Epidemiology and spearheaded by S. V. Subramanian with the Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies. The study also included researchers from the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
For the study, the scientists looked at available data from 68 countries and 2,947 counties in the United States.
Most countries rely on vaccines as the primary mitigation strategy to prevent coronavirus infections. In America, the ongoing surge of new cases is allegedly due to many areas with low vaccination rates. Other countries like Germany and the United Kingdom are using a similar narrative to convince citizens that vaccine mandates are the answer to the pandemic.
The scientists looked into the potential links between the percentage of the population fully vaccinated and new COVID-19 cases in the countries and American counties included in the study. They used coronavirus data from Our World in Data website for cross-country analysis. The last update of data was within three days of Sept. 3.
Our World in Data aims to address worldwide problems like disease, poverty, hunger, war, existential risks and inequality. The organization involves thousands of researchers across the world who help provide information for accessible databases. Overall, the organization is about “research and data to make progress against the world’s largest problems.”

COVID-19 vaccine doesn’t make a difference
