    Keep in mind Pfizer touted 95% efficacy to illness. They defined illness as fever and another symptom such as coug, headache, etc.

    That was the promise.

    Turns out the reality is:

    Israel says Pfizer Covid vaccine is just 39% effective as delta spreads


    https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/23/delt...e-illness.html


    Those are.the facts.


    Now vax s moved the goalpost saying "well it does prevent death and hospitalization"

    Seeing that at least 1/2.the dead are vaxed now, thus my question.

    Wtf?
    from your own link:

    The two-dose vaccine still works very well in preventing people from getting seriously sick, demonstrating 88% effectiveness against hospitalization and 91% effectiveness against severe illness, according to the Israeli data.

    Add this to the numbers from your earlier tweet:
    The unvaxxed are dying at ~5-6 times the rate of the vaccinated according to your numbers posted compared to the overall vaccinated and unvaccinated 60+ populations in Israel.

    You just proved vaccines prevent deaths.
    Again, how is this a failure?

    I will ask you one question:

    Say you're 60. Here is a vaccine that will make you six times less likely to die of a highly transmissible disease.

    Do you take it?

    Yes or no.

    The thing is 80% of old Israeli COVID deaths in a time period could be among the vaccinated and it's STILL a better result than not being vaccinated.

    That's what happens when 90% of the population is vaccinated. The numbers are that significant.

    This blog post explains how cursory looks at headlines and maybe a single statistic make people like ST's resident vaccinated anti-vaxxers look stupid.

    https://www.covid-datascience.com/po...are-vaccinated

    On the whole, these vaccines are still amazing.

    Even in Israel.

    Only Trumpsters aren't vaxxed and it's good that they die is what I heard.


    Failing Joe Biden is going to rack up more bodies with a vaccine then Trump did without a vaccine. It is what it is.

    More merit-based deaths and I don't have to miss out on fun activities.

    Covid under Joe is 100x better.

    It's not surprising that you would turn to a blog post making a strawman argument. You ignored Hater saying that the vaccines work but not as well as they were initially advertised. That has become obvious and even your blogpost illustrates that fact. So lol "on the whole".

    Bottom line is that if failing Joe Biden doesn't implement his secret plan to shutdown the virus soon he will rack up more bodies than Trump.

    that was his goalpost move. His third goalpost move.

    Sorry you backed another loser. It's not surprising. You're making it a habit.

    75% of COVID deaths in DC are blacks even though they are only 45% of the population.

    But then you don't give a about them because BLM is only true when there's a more visible crowd to signal to.

    DMC wants us to hold blacks down and forcibly vaccinate them.

    what is with you Trump s these days? Did you finally realize Trump wasn't secretly inaugurated in March?

    Coronavirus Mu variant discovered in the US

    Some 167 cases of the Mu variant were discovered in Los Angeles, with 2,000 cases countrywide.

    "This variant has a constellation of mutations that suggests that it would evade certain antibodies, not only monoclonal antibodies but vaccine and convalescent serum-induced antibodies," said Dr. Anthony Fauci in a video posted by the Washington Post.

    "But there isn't a lot of clinical data to suggest that. It is mostly laboratory in-vitro data.

    Nope.

    You're free to run your own equation to prove vaccines don't work.

    You will fold..



    Let's make it really simple for you.

    You have 100 old Israelis.

    90 are vaccinated.

    10 are not.

    3 of the vaccinated group die.

    2 of the unvaccinated group die.

    More vaccinated old Israelis died so vaccines don't work, right?

    20% of the unvaccinated died.

    3% of the vaccinated died.

    So vaccines don't work, right?

    Say 4 from each group are infected.

    IFR vaccinated = 75%
    IFR unvaccinated = 50%

    You have 0% chance of dying from covid if uninfected.

    How do you know any given untested individual isn't infected?

    You don't.

    If 100% of both groups are infected, then your numbers are correct.

    In the Pfizer and Moderna trials, they had roughly equal sample sizes in treatment and placebo arms. Do you know why they do that?

    Oh.

    So you can't actually give a number of infected people. Your denominator doesn't exist.

    How can't you use a number that doesn't exist?

    Show your equation using your denominator that you admit you don't know.
