Lack of COVID-19 boosters not causing surge in hospitalizations



Dr. Daniel R. Kuritzkes, Chief of Infectious Diseases at Brigham and Women's Hospital, said that the data from these three major healthcare systems was consistent with what was happening in Massachusetts.

"We know that hospitalizations are much higher for people age 80 and above, somewhat higher for people in their 70s, and very, very low for people who are younger than 60s. So, that's very much like the data that you’ve seen," Kuritzkes told WVBC-TV, an ABC affiliate in Boston.

Contrary to claims made by the Biden regime and the media, the decline in the number of young people receiving a COVID-19 booster compared to those of older ages has not been linked to a surge in hospitalizations.

Recently released information from three major healthcare systems, two in New York and one in Israel, indicated that a lack of COVID-19 booster doses for younger people are not becoming severely ill and did not increase hospitalizations.

“Data from the three large health care systems in New York and Israel since September 1 indicate that the low booster uptake for people under 65 has not led to high Covid hospitalization rates for this group,” CNN reported.

"Even if they're not getting boosted, young, healthy people are not getting super sick from this," said Dr. Mangala Narasimhan, a senior vice president at Northwell Health, the largest health care provider in New York state. "We're not seeing it. It’s not happening."
