Not by much. Most of those people are as necessary as truck drivers are these days. The only reason they're still employed is something akin to Security Theater.

I haven't taken a single word you've said on the topic since April of last year seriously, so here's me not crying about you not taking what I say seriously either.

I have no idea what the Biden Admin is going to do, it will probably continue somehow to allow the virus spread even help it get worse, certain areas will do very harsh restrictions, economies will get punished just as they have been punished in South America, Canada, Asia and Europe.

So of course Trump got criticized for his Corona failures
but could it be that Biden is worse?

So he has Doubled the numbers

We have also seen, it might not necessarily grow exponentially
some have been able to 'FLATTEN THE CURVE'

Some countries and nation states are winning so in theory the virus can be fought and defeated
even if it is never fully destroyed, a nation can learn a way to live with it.

and its Not the Worst Virus, Not the old Bubonic Plague that crossed from the Far East to the West in ancient time, its not the Spanish Flu Pandemic, it is not the new cocktail of virus and cold and flu and illnesses including new smallpox that Colonial Europeans brought to the Native Americans with no modern medical methods, it is Not the deadly old Peloponnesian Plague of Athens, its not the BlackDeath of Asia and Europe, its a virus that can be very dangerous but a virus that you can fight and defeat with modern biological sciences and modern medical methods. Stay-at-home orders were given to fight Corona in many States, some critics of the policy of the United States say nmixed messages and mixed policy helped the cirus spread while costing the health of the economy. Acorss the USA citywide curfews were enacted in San Francisco in Chicago also, curfew and restricted travel and numbers in Nebraska in Portland, in many many cities and States, yet an unhealthy economy leads to more dpression, no running, no gyms, no parks and yet there is still time for Fastfood and Booze and the Drug Dealer still is sell his stuff, more lockdowns and more unhealthy people, many non-essential businesses across many States have been foced to shut down by Laws risk going bankrupt and damage people's mental health in order to fight the virus.

So what is the Biden Admin doing wrong?
At the start we knew very little about the virus how dangerous it was. At the start we had little info on the Virus speculation from new reports in China, people were dying in Europe, it was just arriving in America. There were questions if it woudld last a few days in the system or stay dormant for a month, stay on surface or in the air or if it spread by surface touching or by contact or breathing the same air in a room, first it was thought between 2 and 14 days but now we know of possible cures and incubation period ranged from 5 days to 7 days they say in health reports. There are also reports incubation period ranges from 1 to 14 days but the largest percentage but most people who develop COVID-19 symptoms do so 4 to 6 days after exposure. They have started to understand possible cures, prevention methods, how to fight the infection. Almost 2 Years After there can be a policy where People who have been self-quarantining, because they had contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19 and have completed their 14-day quarantine period without developing symptoms, can return to the community.

So Biden has almost two years of scientific biological experimentation to work with, he has seen what works in America, he can see what hospitals got their sick to go home cured, he can take examples from other nations and see what works and fails there in those economies while keeping trade and an economy moving...if he wishes...and if his Admin is not so stupid he can learn from America's previous methods to fight the virus and other methods by other countries and nation states. He should know that younger children are good at fighting the virus in the schools across the world and have experienced lower rates of infection and transmission, he mortality rate for kids and young adults is lower, the US children are likely to have milder symptoms and are at lower risk of severe disease than adults, we can see here where 'Herd Immunity' might work not with the older but with the Younger. Even if one older adult has the virus infection there is now fluid therapy for the sickly, there are new antivirals and antibody-based therapies, use of the glucocorticoid dexamethasone is recommended, there is oxygen support new steroid methods and medications to fight the virus.

How have other nation states and countries managed to get a virus under control, maybe make their people more health, flatten death rates, he went on election said he would beat Trump with a promise to do things very different to Donald Trump and get the Covid numbers under control so what is the Biden Admin doing wrong?

Maybe Biden is far ridiculous than Trump because at least Trump had the excuse he didnt full understand what kind of virus he was dealing with when it arrived in America. There is no way with all this data and experience that numbers sduring Biden's term should have Doubled, the Biden Admin is silly, meandering second-rate, it is ridiculous in its inspiration and lack of leadership.

Yup. I "was" and I still do.

His plot required an insane amount of people to be in on it to work.

Mine requires only one, possibly a handful of people in positions of authority who only serve in those positions because they have proven themselves to be loyal and to be able to keep a secret.



Don't question my theory when you believe the fucking nonsense that is presented to you with this study without questioning it.

Other countries have had far more cooperation from their citizens, I'd say especially the countries with previous SARS experience; also countries with a fairly uniform population that have a government they trust, like the Nordic countries. Also, in the US it's legitimately questionable whether or not the President has the Constitutional authority to create a national response, so to date the response had been run state-by-state.

On a per capita basis of total deaths, the US is in the company of a few other wealthy, western, industrialized nations: Belgium, the UK, and Italy, and these countries are in the company of 21 much poorer countries like Peru, Tunisia, and Slovakia.

Anyway, imo I'm not sure what Biden* could do differently. Trust was lost between us and our government well before he became President. Without clear authority there's little he can do than lead by example, for what that's worth.

My observation is that countries that did a good job so far in keeping cases and deaths low will have to keep up a massive effort, unless they can reasonably vaccinate their populations. Since COVID-19 is circulating freely around the globe, there's always a chance it'll enter or reenter a country that either kept it at bay or has beaten it back. My feeling is that all successes are merely temporary.

Or as I've said for quite some time, it won't be eradicated anywhere until it's eradicated everywhere.

Damn... Nope. We were close though.

It won't be eradicated anywhere. Every single person in the world will get it. It won't be too long until it's just considered part of the "common cold" umbrella.

I'm sure that Big Pharma will cash in on the hysteria nostalgia though and will gladly vaccinate anyone who wants it every winter just like they do the Flu from here to eternity though.

Actually, I'm a bit concerned about how this antiviral works. Apparently it's able to insert itself into the genomic (RNA) material of the virus and create nonsense proteins, kind of gumming up the works.

But what happens if it creates a SUPER-virus that is resistant to this antiviral? Because every time a virus replicates, nature throws dice. It could become less infectious, or more. It could become less deadly, or more. Or it could become something different. Prolly not gonna happen, but I wonder how scientists are so sure that it won't?

Hmmm... 7/10 are vaccinated. but 4/10 new cases are vaccinated. That means that the vaccinated are getting sick at a MUCH lower rate than the unvaccinated.

Also, Vermont, altho experiencing a peak of "new cases" compared to its own history, is near the bottom (on a per capita basis) compared to other states, and similarly near the bottom of "new deaths" per capita compared to other states in the nation.

So I wouldn't exactly label Vermont as a failure in terms of reducing cases and deaths from Covid because they, and their vaccination policy, seem to be doing better than most other states.

Just as an FYI, Vermont's Delta caseload, like pretty much everyone else's, has peaked and is now declining.

Here's something interesting, Signy - passive immunity to COVID-19 that lasts for months.

AstraZeneca seeks U.S. approval for drug cocktail to prevent COVID

Oct 5 (Reuters) - AstraZeneca (AZN.L) has requested emergency approval from U.S. regulators for its antibody cocktail, the first protective shot other than vaccines against COVID-19, another potential major step in the global fight to combat the virus.

While vaccines rely on an intact immune system to develop targeted antibodies and infection-fighting cells, Astra's biotech compound known as AZD7442 contains lab-made antibodies designed to linger in the body for months to contain the virus in case of an infection.

COVID-19 therapies based on the same class of monoclonal antibodies are sold by rivals Regeneron (REGN.O), Eli Lilly (LLY.N) and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK.L) and its partner Vir (VIR.O) to stop the disease from worsening during early, milder stages of the infection.

The AstraZeneca therapy, designed to last several months to a year, could protect people who do not have a strong enough immune response to COVID-19 vaccines due to, for instance, chemotherapy or anti-rejection drugs after organ transplants.

That all sounds great until those man-made antibodies lingering around in your body for months and months on end start targeting your healthy flesh, moving on eventually to the healthy organs.

No thanks.

Anybody who has had even a minor case of Vitiligo will not welcome that possibility.

Are you in denial?


Although actual figures are nonexistent in that story, or in any of it's links, the story does still quite clearly state the highest hospitalizations since last Jan, the second most deadly month since the pandemic began, and the record level number of case.

You do not seem to dispute those facts. Why not? And what are the actual figures, which you claim are manipulated?

My prediction is that unless those countries that have had a 'zero-COVID-19' policy have vaccinated roughly 70% of their currently eligible populations within in the span from roughly 3 months previous to now, once they give up those policies, they'll have a strong COVID-19 surge. I'll be checking that at 91-DIVOC.


Australia
New Zealand

China
Singapore
Hong Kong

Laos
Vietnam
Cambodia
Thailand

China is maintaining its 'zero Covid' policy.

Just fyi - for those who do get infected, they carry the same amount of virus. But most people don't get infected.

That's something your 'sources' failed to let you know.

vaccines-give-you-against-the-delta-variant-according-to-the-best-available-data/ar-AALURZQ


Scottish study
the test-negative analysis to estimate vaccine effectiveness in preventing RT-PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection showed that, compared to those unvaccinated, at least 14 days after the second dose, BNT162b2 (Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine) offered very good protection: 92% (95% CI 90–93) S gene-negative (alpha variant), 79% (75–82) S gene-positive (delta variant). Protection associated with ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (Oxford–AstraZeneca vaccine) was, however, substantial but reduced: 73% (95% CI 66–78) for S gene-negative cases versus 60% (53–66) for those S gene-positive

Qatar study
BNT162b2 (Pfizer) effectiveness against any Delta infection, symptomatic or asymptomatic, was 64.2% (95% CI: 38.1-80.1%) =14 days after the first dose and before the second dose, but was only 53.5% (95% CI: 43.9-61.4%) =14 days after the second dose in a population in which a large proportion of fully vaccinated persons received their second dose several months earlier. (ie waned over an extended time)
Corresponding effectiveness measures for mRNA-1273 (Moderna) were 79.0% (95% CI: 58.9-90.1%) and 84.8% (95% CI: 75.9-90.8%), respectively.

UK study
the effectiveness of BNT162b2 and ChAd0x1 against any infections (new PCR positives) and infections with symptoms or high viral burden is reduced with the Delta variant. A single dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine had similar or greater effectiveness compared to a single dose of BNT162b2 or ChAdOx1 (Oxford vaccine). Effectiveness of two doses remains at least as great as protection afforded by prior natural infection. The dynamics of immunity following second doses differed significantly between BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1, with greater initial effectiveness against new PCR-positives but faster declines in protection against high viral burden and symptomatic infection with BNT162b2.

hcq HAS BEEN CURING FOLK ON DEATH'S DOOR FROM COVID SINCE mARCH 2020.

The new study offered patients the opportunity to be in the control group and be left to die, for the good of science.


So their choice was to get well from HCQ, or try the new pill in the study.

Not sure of your confusion.

Are we even talking about the same thing?
Did you even read the articles?

It was NOT a choice between HCQ and the new antiviral. Where are you getting all of this misinformation from?

Scottish study
the test-negative analysis to estimate vaccine effectiveness in preventing RT-PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection showed that, compared to those unvaccinated, at least 14 days after the second dose, BNT162b2 (Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine) offered very good protection: 92% (95% CI 90–93) S gene-negative (alpha variant), 79% (75–82) S gene-positive (delta variant). Protection associated with ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (Oxford–AstraZeneca vaccine) was, however, substantial but reduced: 73% (95% CI 66–78) for S gene-negative cases versus 60% (53–66) for those S gene-positive

Qatar study
BNT162b2 (Pfizer) effectiveness against any Delta infection, symptomatic or asymptomatic, was 64.2% (95% CI: 38.1-80.1%) =14 days after the first dose and before the second dose, but was only 53.5% (95% CI: 43.9-61.4%) =14 days after the second dose in a population in which a large proportion of fully vaccinated persons received their second dose several months earlier. (ie waned over an extended time)
Corresponding effectiveness measures for mRNA-1273 (Moderna) were 79.0% (95% CI: 58.9-90.1%) and 84.8% (95% CI: 75.9-90.8%), respectively.

UK study
the effectiveness of BNT162b2 and ChAd0x1 against any infections (new PCR positives) and infections with symptoms or high viral burden is reduced with the Delta variant. A single dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine had similar or greater effectiveness compared to a single dose of BNT162b2 or ChAdOx1 (Oxford vaccine). Effectiveness of two doses remains at least as great as protection afforded by prior natural infection. The dynamics of immunity following second doses differed significantly between BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1, with greater initial effectiveness against new PCR-positives but faster declines in protection against high viral burden and symptomatic infection with BNT162b2.







Your studies are bullshit Kiki.

Seriously. Don't bother posting any of them. They won't even be read.

'Not Supposed To Happen': US State With Highest Vaxx Rate Sees Record Surge In COVID Cases

https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/not-supposed-happen-us-state-highes
t-vaxx-rate-sees-record-surge-covid-cases


Quote:

In late August, four of ten cases of COVID-19 in Vermont were among vaccinated people, according to a letter signed by 90 employees of the Vermont Health Department, including state Epidemiologist Patsy Kelso.


HOWEVER, since
Quote:

More than 69 percent of Vermont’s population has been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 as of Sept. 24


Hmmm... 7/10 are vaccinated. but 4/10 new cases are vaccinated. That means that the vaccinated are getting sick at a MUCH lower rate than the unvaccinated.

Also, Vermont, altho experiencing a peak of "new cases" compared to its own history, is near the bottom (on a per capita basis) compared to other states, and similarly near the bottom of "new deaths" per capita compared to other states in the nation.

So I wouldn't exactly label Vermont as a failure in terms of reducing cases and deaths from Covid because they, and their vaccination policy, seem to be doing better than most other states.

Just as an FYI, Vermont's Delta caseload, like pretty much everyone else's, has peaked and is now declining.

I pisses me of when authors write up phony statistics. THEY know what they're doing, but the unwary reader won't catch on.

Are you in denial?


Although actual figures are nonexistent in that story, or in any of it's links, the story does still quite clearly state the highest hospitalizations since last Jan, the second most deadly month since the pandemic began, and the record level number of case.

You do not seem to dispute those facts. Why not? And what are the actual figures, which you claim are manipulated?

Another nonsense response from JSF.

BECAUSE the article didn't have any ACTUAL FIGURES i.e. new cases and new deaths per 100,000 compared to other states... which BTW should always be a big red flag for anyone reading stats ... I looked them up on my own.

As you should have.

If you start with one case of Covid and another pops up, headlines can scream CASELOAD DOUBLES IN JUST ONE DAY! But still, it's just one more person. If you know anything about numbers you should know that.

Thanks for the biorxiv link. A COVID-19 nasal spray should theoretically be better protection against infection, since infection happens in the mucous membranes and those membranes aren't triggered to develop antibodies after injection.

I went back to page 50 of this thread and didn't find SECOND's original post with this phrase.

The article does exist though. Here's the link: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02741-x
Quote:

... in Nature’s survey, more than two-thirds of researchers reported negative experiences as a result of their media appearances or their social media comments, and 22% had received threats of physical or sexual violence. Some scientists said that their employer had received complaints about them, or that their home address had been revealed online. Six scientists said they were physically attacked (see Supplementary information for survey data tables).

Coordinated social-media campaigns and threatening e-mails or phone calls to scientists are not new: topics such as climate change, vaccination and the effects of gun violence have drawn similar attacks in the past. But even scientists who had a high profile before COVID-19 told Nature that the abuse was a new and unwelcome phenomenon tied to the pandemic. Many wanted the extent of the problem discussed more openly. “I believe national governments, funding agencies and scientific societies have not done enough to publicly defend scientists,” one researcher wrote in their survey response.

Some researchers say that they have learnt to cope with the harassment, accepting it as an unpleasant but expected side effect of getting information to the public. And 85% of survey respondents said that their experiences of engaging with the media were always or mostly positive, even if they were harassed afterwards (see ‘Media experiences’). “I think scientists need training for how to engage with the media and also about what to expect from trolls — it’s just a part of digital communication,” one wrote.

But Nature’s survey suggests that even though researchers try to shrug off abuse, it might already have had a chilling effect on scientific communication. Those scientists who reported higher frequencies of trolling or personal attacks were also most likely to say that their experiences had greatly affected their willingness to speak to the media in the future (see ‘Chilling effect?’).

Well, that's what trolls do ... derail opposing opinions with trolling.

Well, Israel has done another useful study on COVID-19

Quote:

Researchers have succeeded in identifying the proteins in the coronavirus that can damage blood vessels

... Now, for the first time, a team of experts led by Tel Aviv University has been able to identify 5 of the 29 proteins that make up the virus that are responsible for damaging blood vessels. The researchers hope that the identification of these proteins will help develop targeted drugs for COVID-19 that reduce vascular damage.


... "We see a very high incidence of vascular disease and blood clotting, for example stroke and heart attack, among COVID patients," says Dr. Ben Maoz. "We tend to think of COVID as primarily a respiratory disease, but the truth is that coronavirus patients are up to three times more likely to have a stroke or heart attack. All the evidence shows that the virus severely damages the blood vessels or the endothelial cells that line the blood vessels. However, to this day the virus has been treated as one entity. We wanted to find out which proteins in the virus are responsible for this type of damage."

The novel coronavirus is a relatively simple virus -- it comprises a total of 29 different proteins (compared to the tens of thousands of proteins produced by the human body). The Tel Aviv University researchers used the RNA of each of the COVID-19 proteins and examined the reaction that occurred when the various RNA sequences were inserted into human blood vessel cells in the lab; they were thereby able to identify five coronavirus proteins that damage the blood vessels.

"When the coronavirus enters the body, it begins to produce 29 proteins, a new virus is formed, that virus produces 29 new proteins, and so on," explains Dr. Maoz. "In this process, our blood vessels turn from opaque tubes into kind of permeable nets or pieces of cloth, and in parallel there is an increase in blood clotting. We thoroughly examined the effect of each of the 29 proteins expressed by the virus, and were successful in identifying the five specific proteins that cause the greatest damage to endothelial cells and hence to vascular stability and function. In addition, we used a computational model developed by Prof. Sharan which allowed us to assess and identify which coronavirus proteins have the greatest effect on other tissues, without having seen them 'in action' in the lab."

According to Dr. Maoz, the identification of these proteins may have significant consequences in the fight against the virus. "Our research could help find targets for a drug that will be used to stop the virus's activity, or at least minimize damage to blood vessels."


https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/11/211103105014.htm

Now, one of the things the articles (I read several) DON'T tell us is whether one or more of those five critical proteins is a spike protein. (Different proteins make up the SARS-CoV2 virus: spike, membrane, envelope, and nucleocapsid. It's not just spike protein, which everyone has been focusing on.)

Pfizer Shares Surge After Release Of 'Miracle' COVID Pill That Is 89% Effective At Preventing Hospitalization
Friday, Nov 05, 2021 - 07:27 AM

Thursday was a rough day for Moderna shares after the company released revenue figures and FY guidance that deeply disappointed Wall Street expectations (potentially destroying the reputation of financier Steve Weiss, arguably Moderna's biggest promoter on Wall Street, in the process). But on Friday, Pfizer - Moderna's biggest rival - rubbed Moderna's nose in it by announcing a revolutionary new oral COVID antiviral similar to the Merck 'miracle pill' that won approval from UK regulators yesterday.

The news sent Pfizer's stock surging, while Moderna and Merck shares tumbled, during premarket trade. Pfizer shares were trading up 11%+:

The key takeaway from the Pfizer announcement is this: Pfizer said studies showed its COVID-19 pill reduced hospitalizations and deaths in high-risk patients by 89%. That's even higher than the 50% reduction in hospitalizations and deaths shown by the Merck pill. Again, like Merck, Pfizer said that it was no longer taking new patients in a clinical trial of the treatment "due to the overwhelming efficacy" of the drug, which it now plans to submit its findings to the FDA for emergency authorization (just like Merck is doing). Yesterday, Merck won approval for its new COVID antiviral, molnupiravir, from regulators in the UK, and it's pushing to wrack up as many EUAs as possible from regulators from all over.

Pfizer is already planning to seek approval emergency approval from the US government because, according to the numbers, its drug is even more effective than molnuiravir. According to the headline numbers, Pfizer's new antiviral is even more effective than the rival pill from Merck. Pfizer’s pill, which will be sold under the brand name Paxlovid, cut the risk of hospitalization or death by 89% when taken within three days after symptoms emerge (the number for Merck's drug was it needed to be taken within 5 days of infection).

“The results are really beyond our wildest dreams,” said Annaliesa Anderson, a Pfizer executive who led the drug’s development. She expressed hope that Paxlovid “can have a big impact on helping all our lives go back to normal again and seeing the end of the pandemic.”

It's expected the new drug will be made available in the US at least but in limited quantities at first.

Criticisms have also been made about the cost of molnupiravir, and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla already affirmed on CNBC that a course of the drug will cost insurers or customers around $700 (though the firm says it intends to sell the drug at a "discounted" prices to "poorer countries".

Per the NYT:

The U.S. government has been in negotiations with Pfizer for enough pills for 1.7 million courses of treatment, with an additional option for 3.3 million, according to a senior administration official. That is about the same quantity that the United States has ordered from Merck. The government expects to pay about $700 per treatment course for both drugs, the official said.

Both the Pfizer and Merck pills are both geared toward patients regarded as high-risk, including those above the age of 60 or with conditions like obesity that make them more susceptible to severe consequences from COVID.

But while experts again touted the drug's safety profile, several scientists have spoken out about potential safety risks tied to molnupiravir, the Merck drug.

Another important question: what does this mean now for President Biden's increasingly coercive vaccine mandate?

MORE ABOUT PAXLOVID

Quote:

Paxlovid works by blocking the activity of a certain COVID enzyme called SARS-CoV-2-3CL, according to Pfizer. The COVID virus needs this enzyme in order to replicate.

Molnupiravir works by merging itself with the COVID virus and causing errors in its genetic code, preventing it from replicating.

I don't know about you, but it seems far safer to block a critical enzyme necessary for viral replication than to induce mutations into viral RNA. But that's just me.

Quote:

Pfizer is currently working on multiple studies to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Paxlovid. The so-called EPIC studies, which stand for Evaluation of Protease Inhibition for Covid-19, are split into different types.

There is EPIC-SR, which looks at standard-risk patients with a confirmed COVID infection; EPIC-PEP, which looks at healthy adults who live in the same household as someone with COVID; and EPIC-HR, which looks at non-hospitalized high-risk patients with a confirmed COVID infection.

Pfizer's announcement on Friday follows early analysis of the ongoing EPIC-HR study involving data from hundreds of adults who were enrolled by September 29. Each patient in the study was randomized to receive Paxlovid or a placebo orally every 12 hours for five days within three days of symptom onset.

The data from the study so far looked at patients 28 days after they were randomized. In the Paxlovid group, in which there were 389 people, three ended up being hospitalized and none of them died.

In the placebo group, in which there were 385 people, 27 ended up being hospitalized and seven died.

Europe facing 500,000 more Covid deaths by February, WHO warns
https://edition.cnn.com/2021/11/04/europe/europe-covid-winter-who-proj
ection-intl/index.html

Europe is facing a potentially devastating winter that could see half a million people die with Covid-19, the World Health Organization (WHO) warned on Thursday ...
Much of Europe is battling spikes in infections, with Germany on Thursday reporting its highest number of daily new cases since the pandemic began.

Will 'Europe' really face up to 1/2B COVID-19 deaths this winter as warned by the WHO? As with any prediction - it remains to be seen.

But this article is yet another example of misreporting. Or maybe it's WHO that's putting out incomplete and potentially misleading communiqués. I wouldn't know because CNN didn't link the WHO notice.

Anyway, the entire article focuses on cases, and not deaths; and reports each area without context either to the global situation or to internal factors.

For example, the article highlights Germany as an area of concern because of rising 'cases' (per capita). But deaths aren't rising (per capita) and its 'vaccination rate' is over 70% (fully vaccinated figures aren't available). Is Germany going to have a problem? Maybe not.

OTOH Russia and Eastern Europe are showing the same spike in 'cases' (per capita), but unlike Germany their deaths are also going up (per capita), while vaccination rates (same caveats) are about 40%. Are they gong to have a problem? I'd say definitely yes.

But you can also look at - say the US - figures and see that the US has both Germany and Russia beat when it comes to 'cases' (per capita). So why is the UN focusing on 'Europe'? And why is CNN writing about Germany at all?

Reporting is at best biased.

Risks of myocarditis, pericarditis, and cardiac arrhythmias associated with COVID-19
vaccination or SARS-CoV-2 infection

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-021-01630-0.pdf

Although myocarditis and pericarditis were not observed as adverse events in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine trials, there have been numerous reports of suspected cases following vaccination in the general population. We undertook
a self-controlled case series study of people aged 16 or older vaccinated for COVID-19 in England between 1 December 2020 and 24 August 2021 to investigate hospital admission or death from myocarditis, pericarditis and cardiac arrhythmias in the 1–28 days following adenovirus (ChAdOx1, n = 20,615,911) or messenger RNA-based (BNT162b2, n = 16,993,389; mRNA-1273, n = 1,006,191) vaccines or a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) positive test (n = 3,028,867). We found increased risks of myocarditis associated with the first dose of ChAdOx1 and BNT162b2 vaccines and the first and second doses of the mRNA-127 vaccine over the 1–28 days postvaccination period, and after a SARS-CoV-2 positive test. We estimated an extra two (95% confidence interval (CI) 0, 3), one (95% CI 0, 2) and six (95% CI 2, 8) myocarditis events per 1 million people vaccinated with ChAdOx1, BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273, respectively, in the 28 days following a first dose and an extra ten (95% CI 7, 11) myocarditis events per 1 million vaccinated in the 28 days after a second dose of mRNA-1273. This compares with an extra 40 (95% CI 38, 41) myocarditis events per 1 million patients in the 28 days following a SARS-CoV-2 positive test.
We also observed increased risks of pericarditis and cardiac arrhythmias following a positive SARS-CoV-2 test. Similar associations were not observed with any of the COVID-19 vaccines, apart from an increased risk of arrhythmia following a second dose of mRNA-1273. Subgroup analyses by age showed the increased risk of myocarditis associated with the two mRNA vaccines was present only in those younger than 40.




It's nice to finally have 'per capita' figures for cardiac issues from vaccines v COVID-19 disease.

To summarize things with commonly used names:

The endpoint was "hospital admission or death from myocarditis, pericarditis and cardiac arrhythmias", not any possibly temporary increase in a few test results, for example. In other words, the endpoint was serious heart events or death.

The observed time period was approximately one month after vaccination or infection.

The age range was 16yrs or older.

- ChAdOx1 = Oxford adenovirus vaccine
- BNT162b2 = Biontech/ Pfizer mRNA vaccine, 'Pfizer'
- mRNA-1273 = Moderna mRNA vaccine
- severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) positive test = severe COVID-19

All 4 groups had a study population of a minimum of a million.

All results are stated 'per million'.

Oxford
myocarditis
1st dose 2
2nd dose 0
pericarditis and cardiac arrhythmias
1st dose 0
2nd dose 0

Pfizer
myocarditis
1st dose 1
2nd dose 0
pericarditis and cardiac arrhythmias
1st dose 0
2nd dose 0

Moderna
myocarditis
1st dose 6
2nd dose 10
cardiac arrhythmias only
1st dose 0
2nd dose increased

severe COVID-19
myocarditis
within 30 days of test 40
pericarditis and cardiac arrhythmias
increased

They're trying to hide that good, but eventually they won't be able to anymore.

6ix invented a fourth lie ("Cancer") but there already are three important lies that keep being repeated by Republican politicians and right-wing media. These lies influence not just Republicans, but some gullible Democrats.

First is the claim that the coronavirus is no big deal. You might think this claim would have been retired, given that more than 800,000 Americans have died from Covid since Rush Limbaugh compared its virus to the common cold.

But it’s still out there. Political figures like Marco Rubio are dismissing the response to Omicron as “irrational hysteria” because the variant appears to cause relatively few hospitalizations among the fully vaccinated. He slips quickly past that last qualification, which the KFF survey suggests has eluded millions of unvaccinated Republicans, who declare themselves unworried by a disease that should have them very worried indeed.

And conservative commentators erupted in rage when President Biden pointed out, reasonably, that the coronavirus is still extremely dangerous if you haven’t gotten your shots; Tucker Carlson accused Biden of treating the unvaccinated as “subhumans.”

Next up: the claim that vaccination is ineffective. “If the booster shots work, why don’t they work?” tweeted Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee.

What they were getting at, presumably, is the fact that Omicron is producing a number of breakthrough infections, while carefully ignoring the overwhelming evidence that even when vaccinated Americans do get infected they are far less likely than the unvaccinated to be hospitalized — or die.

Finally, there’s the claim that it’s all about freedom, that remaining unvaccinated should be treated simply as a personal choice. For example, the administration of Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas has used that argument as the basis for a lawsuit seeking to block federal vaccine mandates. The Abbott administration has also appealed for federal aid to help Texas — which has a strikingly low vaccination rate in part because Abbott has prevented private businesses from imposing vaccine requirements — cope with a surge in Covid cases and hospitalizations. Need we say more?

Alert readers will have noticed that these Republican claims, in addition to being false, contradict one another in multiple ways. We can ignore Covid thanks to vaccines, which by the way don’t work. Vaccination is a personal choice, but giving people the information they need to make that choice wisely is a vile attack on their dignity. It’s all about freedom and free markets, but this freedom doesn’t include the right of private businesses to protect their own workers and customers.

So none of this makes any sense — not, that is, unless you realize that Republican vaccine obstructionism isn’t about serving a coherent ideology, it was and is about the pursuit of power. A successful vaccination campaign would have been a win for the Biden administration, so it had to be undermined using any and every argument available.

Sure enough, the anti-vaccine strategy has worked politically. The persistence of Covid has helped keep the nation’s mood dark, which inevitably hurts the party that holds the White House — so Republicans who have done all they can to prevent an effective response to Covid have not hesitated, even for a moment, in blaming Biden for failing to end the pandemic.

And the success of destructive vaccine politics is itself deeply horrifying. It seems that utter cynicism, pursued even at the cost of your supporters’ lives, pays.

Uh huh.

We'll see.

I've been right about everything else so far.

Characteristics and Outcomes of Hospitalized Patients in South Africa During the COVID-19 Omicron Wave Compared With Previous Waves

The number of patients treated in the hospitals during the same early period of each wave differed (2351 in wave 4 vs maximum 6342 in wave 3); however, 68% to 69% of patients presenting to the emergency department with a positive COVID-19 result were admitted to the hospital in the first 3 waves vs 41.3% in wave 4 (Table 1). Patients hospitalized during wave 4 were younger (median age, 36 years vs maximum 59 years in wave 3; P?
The proportion of patients requiring oxygen therapy significantly decreased ( 17.6% in wave 4 vs 74% in wave 3, P?
The median LOS (between 7 and 8 days in previous waves) decreased to 3 days in wave 4. The death rate was between 19.7% in wave 1 and 29.1% in wave 3 and decreased to 2.7% in wave 4.





Omicron may be the variant that kills COVID-19 out of the human population. Since it has no natural reservoir, once everyone is either vaccinated or infected, it has nowhere to hide and nowhere to spread to.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


Does Omicron protect against other variants? People are assuming that it does, but that's just an assumption AFAIK.

Also, just bc viruses TEND to mutate towards more transmissible but less-lethal forms doesn't mean they inevitably do. Mutations are a roll of the dice, and the next variancould be a real killer.

AFA "cancer" from the vaccine- there's been scare-mongering from BOTH sides. This is just scare-mongering from the anti-vax side.
