US COVID death toll would be 4X higher without vaccines, modeling study finds
Briefly

Without COVID-19 vaccines, the US would have seen four times more deaths from the pandemic virus-an additional 3 million lives lost-as well as nearly four times more hospitalizations, 1.5 times more infections, and an additional $1.5 trillion in medical bills since December of 2020.Those are the top-line results from a new modeling study by the Commonwealth Fund, which simulated the unmitigated effects of COVID-19 in the US from December 2020 to November 2022.
