ICYMI: Could COVID-19 vaccinations be related to traffic safety? — via drivingdotca
Now, to be fair, those are the numbers the researchers crunched, but they’re not saying that the vaccinedetermines whether you’re going to make it to your destination without incident.
Simply getting vaccinated “has no direct effect on traffic behaviour or the risk of a motor vehicle crash,” the researchers said. “Instead, we theorized that individual adults who tend to resist public health recommendations might also neglect basic road safety guidelines.” A doctor gives a dose of the Moderna vaccine to the driver of a car in a drive-in vaccination station in an IKEA car park on the third day of the #HierWirdGeimpft COVID-19 vaccination campaign on September 15, 2021 in Berlin, GermanyThe study found that those who hadn’t received a vaccine were more likely to be younger, living in a rural area, and in the lower fifth overall for income.
But that said, the researchers also suggested that since unvaccinated patients “are overrepresented in the aftermath of a traffic crash,” that “the observed risks might also justify changes to driver insurance policies in the future.” Most people agree that insurance companies will jump on just abouttidbit to raise your rates or deny a claim — and perhaps your status with the vaccination clinic could result in some nasty surprises when it’s time to renew your policy.
