How Safe Our Gyms Are ?

You are visiting a high fi Gym where everyone is vaccinated. What are the chances that one of them is carrying the virus to the Gym ? A rough assessment.

Vaccination has its own advantages and limitations.

Advantages:

• Vaccination prevents serious illness by 90%. On 10 September 2021, CDC of USA has released a study that confirms 86% protection of COVID-19 vaccines against moderate and severe COVID-19. That means Hospitalisation, ICU admission and death are reduced by 90%.
• It reduces infection by 50%.

Every other fully vaccinated person can carry the virus to the Gym. You have 50% chance to carry this virus out with you to your environment. Both of you will be totally ignorant of this fact.

At your residence, you may have children who are not vaccinated. And very old persons in whom the Vaccine effectiveness is less. 

These members are sitting ducks for the virus as you will remain totally asymptomatic.

One of the findings of the above study is that the effectiveness of vaccines (VE)  is less among the  75+ population.
