Description:Interpretive Summary for January 21, 2022
Are You Up to Date?
COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and deaths continue to increase, driven by the Omicron variant. CDC’s COVID Data Tracker shows that, as of January 20, 2022, more than 209 million people have received their primary series* of a COVID-19 vaccine and are considered fully vaccinated. More than 82 million people are up to date on their vaccines, which means they have received all recommended COVID-19 vaccines, including boosters.
Three reports released this week highlight the importance of getting vaccinated and boosted to protect against severe COVID-19 associated with the Delta and Omicron variants.1,2,3 COVID Data Tracker shows that, as of January 20, 2022, 53.2% of booster-eligible people in the United States have not received their booster dose. That represents a total of 86 million people. CDC recommends everyone ages 5 years and older get their primary series of a COVID-19 vaccine and receive a booster dose when eligible. Find a vaccine and get your booster dose as soon as you can.
Masking is another crucial way to protect yourself and others. Last week, CDC updated its mask recommendations to show that well-fitting NIOSH-approved respirators (including N95s) offer the most protection against COVID-19. Any mask is always better than none, but whatever mask you choose should fit well and be comfortable enough to wear correctly and consistently.
