So if you know that 70% of those people that are in the hospital are unvaccinated and they come out of only 30% of the population. It's an inarguable math that the vaccine is keeping people out of the hospitals. 85% of the people that are on vents are unvaccinated. Again, much smaller portion of the population, they are the ones that are on vents. And almost no deaths have come from anyone who has been vaccinated twice and also got the booster we found zero hospital deaths on this point, on that. (15:26–15:31)
