We estimated the risk of death from coronavirus disease 2019 in vaccinated compared with unvaccinated patients. The risk of death was reduced 44% after 1 dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 vaccine, 55% after 1 dose of the Oxford-Astrazeneca ChAdOx1 vaccine, and 69% after 2 doses of the BNT162b2 vaccine. This is above the protection provided against infection.

Conflict of interest statement
Potential conflicts of interest. M. R. reports funding from the UK National Institute for Health Research/Vaccine Task Force (grant NIHR203292; funding for COV-BOOST trial under contract via University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust), during the conduct of the study. M. R. also reports that the Immunisation Department has provided vaccine manufacturers with postmarketing surveillance reports on pneumococcal and meningococcal infection, which the companies are required to submit to the UK Licensing authority in compliance with their risk management strategy; a cost recovery charge is made for these reports (nonfinancial support from Pfizer/GSK). All other authors report no potential conflicts. All authors have submitted the ICMJE Form for Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest. Conflicts that the editors consider relevant to the content of the manuscript have been disclosed.
