White House press secretary Jen Psaki: “You are 17 times more likely to go to the hospital if you’re not vaccinated, 20 times more likely to die.”
PolitiFact's ruling: True
Here's why: On Jan. 10, when the U.S. reported 1.35 million new COVID-19 cases — the highest daily total for any country on record — White House press secretary Jen Psaki faced pushback regarding President Joe Biden’s assertion that the pandemic is, at this point, "a pandemic of the unvaccinated."

The article is entirely to long to copy & paste. I looked for ways to fact check the assertion within the article. There are quite a few that can be accessed within the article. The virus is real the choice to vaccinate or not as more info is gathered seems like IMO is a no brainer.
