Methodology: A cross-sectional observational study was carried out with analytical intention, in active affiliates of the insurer, detected and confirmed with PCR or antigen tests, to calculate the lethality, the quotient of deaths and number of confirmed cases in the study period, the sources for morbidity and mortality they were SIVIGILA, SISMUESTRAS, SEGCOVID, RIPS and RUAF; while the source of the vaccinated population was PAIWEB and a web 2.0 application, Results: From the first case registered on March 17, 2020 to August 30, 2022, the insurer registered 97,274 cases of COVID 19, and 3,619 deaths, resulting in a fatality of 3.7%, the majority was confirmed by antigen tests and among the cases in the post-vaccination period the effective coverage of dose 1 was around 30%, in all doses the most frequent biologics were Sinovac and Pfizer. Conclusions: lethality was significantly associated with exposure to vaccination, being lower in the population immunized with at least one dose, in all age groups (p value 0.0001 < 0.05).
