Vaccines very effective against hospital and ICU admissions, also for Delta variant COVID-19 vaccines work well in preventing people from being admitted to hospital or ICU for COVID-19, according to a new analysis by RIVM.
COVID-19 vaccination reduces transmission Vaccination against COVID-19 reduces the transmission of the virus from one person to another. This is apparent from RIVM research using data from source and contact tracing by the Municipal Public Health Services (GGDs).
Nearly 85% of people aged 18 and over have had at least one vaccination The RIVM vaccination update this week has been expanded to include three maps of the Netherlands. For the first time, it is now possible to see vaccination turnout by municipality for everyone aged 18 years and over.
Hospital admissions appear to have peaked, 44% fewer positive COVID-19 tests 541 new COVID-19 hospital admissions were reported last week, 23 fewer than in the week before, when 564 people with COVID-19 were admitted to hospital.
Number of COVID-19 infections continues to increase 1,329 new COVID-19 infections were reported over the past week. That is 342 more confirmed cases reported than the week before that, when 987 new COVID-19 infections were reported.
Number of COVID-19 infections is increasing 987 new COVID-19 infections were reported over the past week. This is nearly twice the number of infections reported in the previous week, when 534 new cases were reported.
Gap between intention and behaviour in staying home and testing for COVID-19 The Dutch policy of staying home and getting tested if you have corona-related symptoms can count on support from the majority of the over 50,000 participants in RIVM’s behavioural study.
About 100 COVID-19 infections detected per week through source and contact tracing The results of 14 days of monitoring of source and contact tracing are known for week 26 (22 to 28 June).
