10% who died of Omicron were vaccinated: Study

Only 10% deaths were recorded among fully vaccinated people who were hospitalised with Omicron infection, compared with nearly 22% fatalities among the unvaccinated or partially-vaccinated, Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) director general Balram Bhargava said on Thursday, citing a study based on data from the national clinical registry of Covid-19, to stress that increase in vaccination has significantly helped reduce deaths during the present surge.
