Covid-19: Vax Americana

The hygienist that cleaned my teeth said an uncle of hers got Covid and died. At his funeral, 10 more members of her family got it with three more dying.

Point is, for every story like the one our latest troll posted above, there are 550k+ that are way different.

 

You'd better get checked for cooties.

 

You know what I'm sure of, that the 98% statistic is 100% made up BS.

The number of hospital admissions alone around the globe are all the proof one needs for that.

This virus has a solid 20% hospitalization rate. Mild disease does not send one to hospital.

 

You don't fart?

 

So avoiding Italy forums for years was not a waste.

 

This assumes a correlation between surging areas, desire to be vaccinated, and lack of access to vaccines.

 

About 2/3 of new cases hereabouts are high school and college age. The numbers in my home county in WA are high enough that we may be moved back to stage two. We've already re-limited the size of group gatherings back to fewer than ten. It's clearly coming from student living groups, and the county is prioritizing vaccines for the WSU students starting next week.

Similar percentage across the border in ID, but lower numbers overall, by far. The UI continues to be vigilant on testing and vaccination, much better than WSU ever did.

 

Congrats! Stay until April 21. Then you have some flexibility in how you interact with others.

 

Not quite. It assumes that access could be better and also assumes that the vaccine helps mitigate the spread (which is not saying that access currently sucks).

So why not make it more accessible in those areas where the situation is more urgent?

 

Is it not accessible to people who want it in those areas?

 

Ever since the beginning of the FA there has been a disease that victimizes football clubs. Chivas USA was the last MLS club to fall victim.

 

What's your source of the "solid 20% hospitalization rate?"

 

According to Worldometers.info, they state 99.6% of all cases to be mild.

But keep fearing it...

 

You're wrong.

2,921,424 deaths/ 135,004,941 total cases (x100 to get %) = 2.16%

EDIT:
Before you get there, I see where you are looking at active cases. But the new strains will probably move that graph a bit. And do you really trust all those numbers? WAKE UP!!!

 

Where's Brummy?

 

Trolling us with his mette72 sockpuppet?
