It’s soooo expensive. That’s what they gave Trump when he was hospitalised



If only there was something that is cheap enough for the government to provide free to the whole country and provides 99% protection against hospitalisation and death.
 
Today [24 Aug 2021] in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR),
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published new
data from Los Angeles County collected from May to July [2021], which
show unvaccinated people were 5 times more likely to get COVID-19 than
vaccinated peers and 29 times more likely to be hospitalized for their
infections (https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7034e5.htm).
It's more evidence that the pandemic in the United States is a
pandemic of the unvaccinated, said CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, MD,
MPH at a White House press briefing today [24 Aug 2021].

Yeah but .... Karen said .........
 
I know we're deep into the pandemic already but this third wave has really shocked me with how many people close to home have passed and today I succumbed to the "new normal"

I did my first Zoom funeral

I've had other opportunities but never did it and now I know why.

I prefer the gathering of bereaved ones, hugging loved ones in pain, wiping away tears and feeling the ache of knowing you will never see that person again...

...that which makes us human

I see the complication was a blood clot. Unfortunately drug induced Thrombosis is a reality in our day and age. A big culprit is also oral contraceptives and hormone regulating drugs. It's not unique to the vaccine and is more common with a plethora of drugs that are used freely these days. Some studies have even linked Ibuprofen to blood clots. It's an unfortunate situation and my heart goes out to her family and son.
 
It’s coming!



WHO council member. Got mad respect for that prof.

But yes, it's coming. Labour department already made adjustments to the act to allow for mandatory vacinations in the workplace. With miles of red tape to please the unions.

But nobody wants things to get to that point. It will be so much easier if people would adhere to their moral responsibility to their own health as well as their family and the people around them.

Scientists fumble for explanations as breakthrough infections rise

Extracts:

“We have to be humble about what we do know and what we donʼt know,” said Tom Frieden, a former director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the head of non-profit Resolve to Save Lives……

Research out of Israel, with its high vaccination rates, seems to back the idea that protection from severe disease wanes in the months after inoculation and, more recently, that breakthrough cases may eventually lead to an uptick in hospitalisations. The information is preliminary and severe breakthrough cases are still rare, but it bolsters the case that some people will need booster shots in coming months….

Case studies and data from some states 
in the US have similarly shown an 
increase in breakthrough cases over
 time. But with the Delta variant also on 
the rise, itʼs difficult to tell whether 
waning immunity to any type of
 coronavirus infection is to blame or if the vaccinations are particularly ineffective against the Delta variant. It could be both.

Some facts are well established at this point. Vaccinated people infected with the virus are much less likely to need to go to hospital, require intubation or die from the illness. Thereʼs no doubt that vaccines provide significant protection.

Unfortunately, there is no vaccine for moronitis (very deadly condition and spread all over the world)
