Anchorage's three acute care facilities shared data with us to create this infographic comparing hospitalization, ICU, and ventilator rates among vaccinated and unvaccinated patients.
While breakthrough cases are occurring, the vaccine seems to still be giving people a better chance at avoiding hospitalization and need for intensive care.
ASHNHA continues to promote vaccinations as a tool in the fight against COVID.
In the first week of September, the Alaska Chamber launched a program to encourage vaccinations across the state. Through Oct. 30, 2021, Alaskans vaccinated for COVID-19 are eligible to enter the Alaska Chamber’s “Give AK a Shot” drawing for a chance to win $49,000.
"Healthy people are the foundation of a healthy economy, and our economy is suffering. The Alaska Chamber firmly believes that one of the most important tools in realizing economic recovery is vaccinating for COVD-19. It is the single easiest and safe thing that individual Alaskans can do to help get our economy back on track."
