Multiple trending articles are misusing data from the U.K. Health Security Agency to claim that more vaccinated than unvaccinated people are getting and dying from COVID-19. This misleading claim has been repeated for months and overlooks the fact that the vaccinated population is three times the size of the unvaccinated population in the U.K. The total number of cases and deaths may be higher among vaccinated people, but unvaccinated people are more likely to contract COVID-19 and are at a much higher risk of becoming seriously ill or dying from COVID-19.
