Abstract
To model estimated deaths averted by COVID-19 vaccines, we used state-of-the-art mathematical modeling, likelihood-based inference, and reported COVID-19 death and vaccination data. We estimated that >1.5 million deaths were averted in 12 countries. Our model can help assess effectiveness of the vaccination program, which is crucial for curbing the COVID-19 pandemic.
Keywords: COVID-19; SARS; SARS-CoV-2; coronavirus; coronavirus disease; global health; respiratory infections; severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2; vaccination; vaccine-preventable diseases; viruses; zoonoses.
