7.00 A general booster vaccination is not necessary now, according to a study

The administration of a booster dose to the entire population is not something "appropriate" at this time of the pandemic due to the high efficacy of current vaccines to prevent severe covid, including the delta variant, according to an international study published this Monday. in "The Lancet" magazine.

The research, conducted by an international team involving scientists from the World Health Organization (WHO) and other institutions, examines data from all published clinical trials and observational studies.

Based on their analysis, the experts confirm that existing vaccines "continue to be highly effective against severe disease", even that produced by the most risky variants.

According to an average of the results obtained in observational studies, current vaccination shows an efficacy of 95% against severe disease, both for the delta and alpha variants, and 80% against infection by either of them.

In all types of vaccines and variants, protection is higher against severe disease than mild, the scientists point out.

The authors add that, although it is known that vaccines are somewhat less effective against asymptomatic covid and transmission, in populations with a high rate of inoculations, the minority of unvaccinated is the main vector of infections, as well as the group with the greatest risk of suffering a serious covid.
