Most of the 43 COVID-19 cases caused by the Omicron variant identified in the United States so far were in people who were fully vaccinated, and a third of them had received a booster dose, according to a U.S. report published on Friday.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that of the 43 cases attributed to Omicron variant, 34 people had been fully vaccinated. Fourteen of them had also received a booster, although five of those cases occurred less than 14 days after the additional shot before full protection kicks in.
The vaccinated folk get a cold. The unvaccinated folk get to go to the ICU. — Banno
No one ever mentions that the Israeli ICUs are evenly split with vaccinated/unvaccinated. — Book273
How does a government “slow the spread” if those with colds are given a pass to congregate? — NOS4A2
Vaccinated go to the ICU less than the Unvaccinated, true. However, of the 20% that feel symptoms, 75% will not end up at the hospital. Of the 25% that end up at the hospital, most will go home from the emergency department. Yes, the rest will go to ICU, and some will die. Some in the ICU are also vaccinated, and some of them will die as well. — Book273
60% of deaths are amongst the unvaccinated, — Banno
75% of new covid cases are unvaccinated. — Banno
Vaccination is working. — Banno
Sure, but no where near as well as we are being led to believe. So we are mandated to receive a vaccine we don't want (otherwise they wouldn't have to mandate it), that should help, sort of. It was a weak premise when it was initiated and is weakening further as time passes. First the vaccine, then a booster, then maybe another booster, then, and likely, an annual booster too. This is poor medicine to mandate on people. — Book273
If the consequence of congregating is a cold, then there is little need to slow the spread. Any rules still standing are only there to protect the unvaccinated.
Yes, by not getting vaccinated those folk are making it harder for everyone.
It’s not a cold, though, it’s SARS-CoV-2. Even the asymptomatic can spread the disease. The rules permit that a person infected with this disease can congregate with the uninfected, so long as he has his vaccination. This is because the rules are stupid. — NOS4A2
True, we aren't being wiped out to the point of threatening civilization. — Cheshire
Well, my point was that your position doesn't acknowledge the legitimacy of the threat. So, I guess we are agreeing by demonstration. I have no idea what you have in mind regarding NWO; the irony is it includes a vague threat to civilization. There's two or arguably three things that seem to wipe people out in bunches; famine, disease, and war. It's the middle one, so what are you talking about?The likelihood that it progresses to that level is laughable. Our response to it IS threatening civilization as we know it. Welcome to the New World Order. That means the old world order is dead, so yeah, civilization has indeed changed, for the worst from where I sit. — Book273
In many places the requirement to enter an establishment is a vaccination pass, not a covid test. So how do the rules prohibit the infected from entering? — NOS4A2
famine, disease, and war. — Cheshire
