Dans un contexte de nouvelle vague de #covid-19 aux #Etats-Unis
Dr. Tom Frieden sur Twitter : “If we just chase the number vaccinated, we miss the point. We want maximum impact from vaccine—for fairness, to reduce deaths, to reduce cases, and to reduce risk of emergence of even more dangerous variants. 14/” /
“100 million people in US have received 1 dose of vaccine. But about 50 million people over 50 (~37M age 50-64 and ~13M 60+) haven’t been vaccinated. Vaccinating these folks, who are disproportionately Black & Latinx, will prevent many more deaths than vaccinating young folks. 15/“

Dr. Tom Frieden sur Twitter :
“[...] a single well-targeted #vaccination could save 10x more lives and prevent 100x more cases than vaccinating a low-risk person in a low-risk community. This is the essential fact we must act on. Equity isn’t only good ethics. It’s essential for epidemic control. 21/” / Twitter
