"What is about is that the epidemiological situation, due to mass vaccination, translates into less infections, less hospitalizations and less deaths".And that will only be possible vaccinating young people.

09.41 If the vaccinated infects what is the use of accrediting the complete pattern inside?

Vaccinated people can infect and spread the virus.Now, the probability they have to infect and transmit the virus will be "considerably lower" than the one who is not, so "vaccination remains one of the best weapons we have to limit infections and the circulation of the circulation of theVirus, "says José Manuel Jiménez researcher in the infectious disease department of the King's College in London.

"If we put people without vaccinating in a room and a person is infected," says the expert -decrease, but it will be much less if all people are vaccinated, "says Efe.

So the reason for requesting a vaccination certificate to access interiors would be to "minimize as much as possible the risk of infection".

Taking into account, Franco affects that "risk always exists".

09.17 Why do you expect most hospitalized with Covid to be vaccinated

Every day there are cases of vaccinated people who are infected with coronavirus, although they mostly have symptoms or are very slight.Very few end in the hospital, but what can be expected if this vaccination rhythm is maintained is that the number of vaccinated admitted exceeds that of those who are not.

Which would only be the consequence that vaccination coverage has reached a more than desirable level without forgetting the fundamental: that with these antidotes, the number of hospitalized and deceased is remarkably lower than the one that would have without them.

This is explained to Efe José Manuel Jiménez, a researcher in the Department of Infectious Diseases of the King's College in London, and Manuel Franco, Epidemiologist and Professor of the University of Alcalá de Madrid and the Johns Hopkins University.

There are still those who ask how it is possible that people with the complete pattern are caught the virus if what they tell us is that more than 87% of those over 40 are already protected with their corresponding doses.The answer is the one that has always been given: none of the current vaccines is sterilizing.That is, they do not prevent contagion.

5.5% of hospitalized COVID patients have the complete pattern compared to 83.4% that has no dose, although the percentages may be reversed and "in fact it would be expected if Spain continues to vaccinate to the rhythm that does it," he repliesJiménez.

As simple as thinking that if 100% of the population were vaccinated, 100% of the hospitalized would be vaccinated people.But, yes, "we must not forget that the number of hospitalized in this case would be remarkably less than the one that would have without vaccines".

That happens because they do not have that effectiveness of 100 %, either because "in certain individuals it does not work well or the answer is not optimal", which ends up developing serious forms of the disease or even dies.

08.59 The protection of COVID vaccines decreases over time

It is very likely that the protection provided by vaccines against coronavirus infection and potentially serious diseases decreases over time, so vaccination campaigns will continue in the coming years, scientists told the British government advisory group, reports Reuters.

"It is very likely that immunity induced by the vaccine to SARS-COV-two infection and potentially serious disease (but probably to a lesser extent) decrease over time," according to an executive summary of a document considered by the advisory groupGovernment scientist.For emergencies (SAGE).

"Therefore, there is likely that there are vaccination campaigns against the SARS-COV-two for many years, but we currently do not know what the optimal frequency required for revaccination will be to protect the vulnerable of Covid disease," he said thescientists.

The document, entitled "How long will they continue to protect vaccines against COVID?".

08.43 US CDC warns that most cases in Massachusetts sprout among vaccinated

Three quarters of people infected with COVID-19 at public events in Julio in a city of CAPE COD in Massachusetts were complete.

5.5% of those hospitalized with COVID-19 in our country are completely vaccinated and "the expected" is that they get to overcome those who are not.What we must not forget is that, without these antidotes, the number would be not only infinitely greater, but completely unassumable by any system, says Efe.
