Deaths averted by vaccination due to reduced transmission can exceed those from direct protection of vaccinated individuals for SARS-CoV-2

2021-10-26

Abstract excerpt

Vaccination programs often focus on direct protection of vaccinated individuals against disease and discount reductions in transmission, which can result in preventable disease and death. Initial clinical trials for most COVID-19 vaccines only measured direct protection, and dosing and vaccine selection decisions have, so far, ignored effects on transmission. Here we provide a novel empirical framework for incorpo...
