    Snippet: Discussion Our analysis shows that mandatory BCG vaccination is associated with a flattening of the curve in the spread of COVID-19. The effect we demonstrate is quite substantial. For example, our model estimates that the total number of COVID-19 related deaths in the US as of 1 The main effect of the current BCG policy contrast in each analysis shows that there are fewer total cases and deaths in BCG-mandated countries, compared to those that d.....
    Document: Discussion Our analysis shows that mandatory BCG vaccination is associated with a flattening of the curve in the spread of COVID-19. The effect we demonstrate is quite substantial. For example, our model estimates that the total number of COVID-19 related deaths in the US as of 1 The main effect of the current BCG policy contrast in each analysis shows that there are fewer total cases and deaths in BCG-mandated countries, compared to those that do not currently mandate BCG vaccination. However, this is a necessary consequence of the rate of increase being more gradual in the former than in the latter.
