Yes, for many different sicknesses. Vaccinations are arguably the most important medical technology development of all time, as they have eradicated many terrible diseases and illnesses. If you have the opportunity to be vaccinated for anything, 99% of the time it is in your best interest to do so.

In a large population, 54 % of the people have been vaccinated. If 5 people are randomly selected, what is the probability that AT LEAST ONE of them has been vaccinated?

We will use Q and P to help solve this problem with Q representing the possibility that none of the randomly selected people are vaccinated and P representing the possibility that at least 1 randomly selected person is vaccinated. Because the sum of all probabilities must equal 1, your beginning equation will be P=1-Q. First you need to figure out how much of the population is NOT vaccinated so you would take 100%-54% to get 46%. With that 46%, you can conclude that any given person has the probability of 0.46 of not being vaccinated. To find the value for Q we will take (0.46)^5. Q=(0.46)^5=0.0206. To find P we go back to the original equation of P=1-Q. P=1-0.0206=0.9794. The probability that at least 1 person has been vaccinated is 0.9794.
