Fully vaccinated people in England were one-third as likely to test positive for COVID-19, according to an ongoing survey of the population released on Wednesday.
The latest findings, from a long-running study by scientists at Imperial College London and market research company Ipsos MORI, were based on 98,233 swabs taken between June 24 and July 12.
They showed one in 160 people infected with coronavirus, with a prevalence rate of 1.21 percent for unvaccinated respondents and 0.40 percent for those fully jabbed.
The study also found double-vaccinated people may be less likely to pass on the virus to others than those who have not received a vaccine.

New research has found that double vaccinated people were three times less likely than unvaccinated people to test positive for the coronavirus.
These results from the Imperial-led REACT-1 study, a major coronavirus monitoring programme, are based on swab tests taken by almost 100,000 people in England between 24 June and 12 July. During this period, 0.63% of people were infected, or 1 in 158. This represents a 4-fold rise compared with the study’s previous report, when 0.15% or 1 in 670 had the virus as of 7 June. These findings confirm our previous data showing that both doses of a vaccine offer good protection against getting infected. Prof Paul Elliott School of Public Health, Imperial
