Week of March 15, 2021 MMWR Weekly Briefing

This episode discusses nine MMWR COVID-19 reports. Three reports look at COVID-19 vaccination, including real-world effectiveness of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, vaccine series completion, and vaccination coverage in communities with high levels of social vulnerability. Three reports show how the pandemic has affected schools' operations, as well as, the mental health of students and their parents. The last three reports provide further evidence that schools can resume in-person learning without resulting in rapid spread of COVID-19 among students and staff.
