once again for the brain dead sheep that believe everything the propagandist media tells their flock… vaccines don’t stop the spread of covid. Biden is a complete failure on his no1 lie that he will stop Covid-19. He is a embarrassment to our country.
How about just reducing it? Honestly, if we actually had 75-90% of the population properly vaccinated, it would save hundreds of thousands of lives in the US. Clinical studies have already shown that vaccinated individuals are 70-95% less likely to become infected and are 11 times less likely to need hospitalization. That said, it's unclear how effective these vaccines will remain with all the variants coming along. Even the monoclonal antibody treatment (the one that President Trump got) is not effective against the omicron variant. Who knows what's next.
But Bart, if you've got some credible sources to show this isn't true, I'd like to see them.
https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/covid/covid-19-data-vaccines.page
According to NYC dept. of health:
The vaccination rate for all people is 81% have had one dose and 72% are "fully vaccinated".
The vaccination rate for adults is 92% have had one shot and 83% are "fully vaccinated".
Even with one of the highest vaccinations rates nationally the NYC dept. of health states "Early evidence shows the omicron variant is spreading rapidly in NYC."
Average daily case counts in New York City more than doubled over the week ending Friday Dec. 17, according to the latest data available on the the city’s health department website. New York is reporting a seven-day average of more than 7,200 cases per day, up from about 3,200 the week prior, a 127% increase.
I don't know where you saw that "Clinical studies have already shown that vaccinated individuals are 70-95% less likely to become infected" the ACTUAL data from NYC, which has strict mask and vax mandates, contradicts what you posted.
I've received 3 vaccine shots, I'm not anti vaccination. Current data shows that the chance of being hospitalized if you are vaccinated is low but there isn't enough data to show "that vaccinated individuals are 70-95% less likely to become infected".
CDC earliest report on the Omicron variant showed that 79% of the cases were occurred in persons who completed the primary series of an FDA-authorized or approved COVID-19 vaccine. It was a very small sample size but the trend showed there was a high rate of fully vaccinated people getting the Omicron variant.....the good news is the symptoms are cold/flu like.
In other words, you catch a cold. Like some do every winter if they aren't careful.
I happened to catch some doctor on tv a while back. He said that many that died from covid, were fat to obese. That got me to look up the stats on that. 50.5% of the covid deaths, happened to obese people. That came from that fly-by-night outfit called the CDC.
Some time ago, I had a couple friends get the flu. Their gripe points about it, was that they had gotten their yearly Flu shots, and still caught it. They couldn't figure out why. I asked them when they did get their shots, it was a month before the contracted it. Some investigation by me online,I found out their immunity to the flu would NOT come to them, for 6 to 8 weeks after their shots. Why? They are fat. The local pharmacy did not inform them about the waiting period for their immunity.
I Fully suspect that covid is operating in the same way.Your covid shots aren't protecting you completely for a time, say 6-8 weeks after you get them. Like if you're carrying extra baggage, then your shot immunity isn't fully in play, yet.
What I really think, is this Omacron variety, is going to get us to "Herd immunity". But biden gets to hold the record for having more covid cases during his watch than trump did. Mr."I'm defeating covid!" gets to brag on how he blew it.
