Anti-vaxxers angry after study shows jabs could have prevented 7,000 Covid hospital admissions and deaths
Research published in The Lancet shows that 7,180 hospital admissions and deaths could have been prevented if people had received all their Covid-19 vaccinations.
The study links gaps in vaccine coverage of younger people, men, those in areas of higher deprivation, and people of non-white ethnicity with hospitalisations and deaths.
But when the size of the group failing to receive vaccinations is compared with the number of hospitalisations and deaths, there may be merit in anti-vaxxer anger at the findings.
Experts found that between a third and a half of people had not had the recommended number of Covid vaccinations and boosters by 1 June, 2022: almost 27 million people in England alone.
The study looking at the whole UK population warned that gaps in vaccine coverage drove 7,180 hospital admissions and deaths during the summer of 2022.
There has been a backlash on the social media:
“ Compared with the fully vaccinated, people 5-15 who’d not had all their jabs had double the risk of death/ hospital admission from Covid ”. Just stop it – this was not an at risk group

Vaccination gaps cost 7,000 Covid deaths and admissions, new study shows https://t.co/mX2xJxj5a1
Now do how many people died BECAUSE OF THE VACCINE. The uptake will be very low now as people have lost all trust in the NHS and our politicians!— MrsRealityUndercover (@Reality_Woman) January 16, 2024
Incredible that they are still pushing this and producing fake studies to back it up…

For the sake of balance, let’s remind ourselves:
7,000 Covid. All we ever need say, to those who don't believe in vaccines, is this – "if it wasn't for vaccines & your great grandpapents, grandparents & parents getting vaccinated against diseases, many of you, arguing against them, wouldn't even exist to be able to do so!"

Vaccines saved lives. Anti-vax messages led to deaths. https://t.co/9huNS8jTV6
