COVID vaccination may protect household members

A new study finds that vaccinated COVID-19 patients are less likely to infect household members than unvaccinated patients are.

"COVID-19 patients who were vaccinated against the virus were much less likely to infect household members than unvaccinated patients"

"…household contacts of patients vaccinated in the past six months were 43% less likely to test positive than household contacts of unvaccinated sick people, the study shows"

This effect was not found if the vaccine was more than 7 months ago.
