CDC Reportedly Blocks Publication of COVID-19 Vaccine Efficacy Study

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reportedly prevented the release of a study intended for its scientific journal. This report indicated that COVID-19 vaccines reduced emergency department visits and hospitalizations by about 50% among healthy adults during the previous winter. The decision to block publication, following an earlier delay, has prompted worries among current and former officials regarding a potential underestimation of vaccine advantages.
