In both cases, therefore, the correct answer is less than one percent, but the implied efficacy rate of vaccination is 99% at preventing hospitalizations. This is calculated as the hospitalization rate for the unvaccinated minus the hospitalization rate for the vaccinated, divided by the unvaccinated rate. In other words, it is the percentage decrease in hospitalization risk. This high rate of protection -- even against Delta -- is consistent with a recent article published in the Lancet, which reviewed large-scale empirical data from the United States and around the world. CDC epidemiologists estimate that the actual number of hospitalizations may be 1.8 times higher than the reported number. If these estimates are accurate, the true rate of hospitalization risk for the unvaccinated population is 1.6% and as high as 0.2% for the vaccinated population. In either case, the public's misunderstanding of risk is roughly just as inaccurate. One criticism of these inflated estimates is that they assume that many people were hospitalized while asymptomatically carrying the SARS-CoV-2 virus, leading to an undetected case. The problem with this reasoning is that it would count people admitted to the hospital for non-COVID reasons who coincidentally had an asymptomatic infection. These cases were correctly omitted from official statistics since the absence of symptoms cannot cause hospitalization. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/956818 Federal Vaccine Program Hasn't Helped Those Whose Lives Were Altered by COVID Shot https://www.statnews.com/2021/08/23/lucky-few-seem-resistant-to-covid19-scientists-want-to-know-why/ The Guardian reports on a new study (which is not yet peer-reviewed). "Children born during the coronavirus pandemic have significantly reduced verbal, motor and overall cognitive performance compared with children born before.""In the decade preceding the pandemic, the mean IQ score on standardised tests for children aged between three months and three years of age hovered around 100, but for children born during the pandemic that number tumbled to 78." "The biggest reason behind the falling scores is likely the lack of stimulation and interaction at home, said [lead study author Sean Deoni, associate professor of pediatrics at Brown University]. “Parents are stressed and frazzled … that interaction the child would normally get has decreased substantially.” https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/australia-pm-says-vaccinations-alone-will-not-end-sydneys-covid-19-lockdown-2021-07-28/ https://www.modernhealthcare.com/safety-quality/poll-covid-anxiety-up-vaccine-requirements-favored https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/scientists-question-evidence-behind-us-covid-19-booster-shot-drive-2021-08-19/ https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/portugal-eases-restrictions-covid-19-vaccination-rate-tops-70-2021-08-20/ https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/astrazenecas-covid-19-antibody-therapy-meets-main-goal-late-study-2021-08-20/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/08/19/moderna-vaccine-myocarditis/ https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/covid19/94140 https://www.route-fifty.com/health-human-services/2021/08/businesses-challenge-one-citys-covid-vaccine-mandate/184696/ https://100percentfedup.com/biden-kicks-vaccine-coercion-into-high-gear-mandating-that-nursing-home-staff-take-the-shot-or-lose-federal-funding-video/ When it served their goal of damaging President Trump, Democrat governors stuffed as many covid positive patients into nursing homes as humanly inhumanely as possible. Their only goal was to achieve an atrociously high death count in an effort to sully Donald Trump’s handling of the Wuhan virus. Now that there’s an agenda to enforce and with the power to do it, Democrats suddenly care deeply about nursing home residents and are demanding that those who staff the facilities put their own health concerns aside for the alleged greater good of their patients. In their latest coercion effort, the Biden administration announced that they will require all nursing home staff to be vaccinated against COVID-19 as a condition for those facilities to continue receiving federal Medicare and Medicaid funding. https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/pharmacy/anti-vaccine-protestors-travel-to-missouri-to-confront-coxhealth-ceo-pharmacists.html https://thefederalist.com/2021/08/20/5-months-pregnant-i-face-losing-my-job-and-health-care-for-choosing-not-to-get-a-covid-19-injection/ In the state of Oregon, employers are compelled by law to cover abortion in health-care plans, but the state can terminate an employee for not getting a vaccine that is not fully vetted by the FDA. It’s worth noting the social and political pressure currently on the FDA to approve the vaccine soon. Hopefully, the rush will not diminish the necessary thoroughness of their evaluation and testing. I find it unbelievable that someone could think abortion is simply a woman’s bodily “right to choose” while denying her right to choose whether to have a needle stuck in her arm. After 17 years, is this is how my public service should end? https://www.beckersasc.com/asc-news/we-have-to-put-faith-back-in-experts-what-we-heard-this-week.html https://thefederalist.com/2021/08/20/biden-uses-bureaucratic-power-disguised-as-civil-rights-to-force-schoolchildren-to-wear-masks/ https://thefederalist.com/2021/08/20/georgia-governor-bans-cities-from-mandating-covid-19-restrictions-but-not-school-districts/ https://thefederalist.com/2021/08/18/why-forcing-unvaccinated-students-to-wear-cloth-masks-is-anti-science/ https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/956881 https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/955601 Delta Variant of SARS-CoV-2 'Still Transmissible for Double Jabbed https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/956878 https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_morningbrief/healthcare-workers-pack-hearing-to-support-bill-to-ban-vaccine-mandates-in-michigan_3958211.html https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/strategy/texas-hospital-largely-removes-mask-requirements.html https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/01/nyregion/excelsior-pass-vaccine.html danger: https://www.news10.com/news/covid-in-schools/more-than-300-universities-across-the-us-requiring-students-to-receive-covid-19-vaccine/ https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/uk-covid-live-updates-britons-tracked-phone-vaccinated-movements-b936712.html https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdQv4U__cS-Xtd7U9P3g69nTb07_aah7OTJeSwL5qKGDq6Gzw/viewform Petition to Life Mask Requirements for Va school children - share! https://100percentfedup.com/dana-nessel-michigans-tyrannical-attorney-general-sought-to-jail-restaurant-owner-who-defied-lockdown-orders-before-she-could-appear-on-fox-news/ Dr. Kory (FLCCC) uses ivermectin, America's Frontline Doctors (AFLDS) uses HCQ/Zinc/zpak (the Lancet paper linking HCQ and heart issues was retracted) and Dr. Peter McCullough, a cardiologist an internist, has another protocol. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/pfizer-start-large-study-test-125130200.html https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/data-analytics/hhs-to-make-some-covid-19-data-reporting-optional-for-hospitals.html https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/cybersecurity/tech-for-sending-lab-samples-used-by-3-000-hospitals-at-risk-for-hacking.html https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2783797 Comparison of SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Response Following Vaccination With BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 Of 2499 health care workers who received 2 doses of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines, 1647 participated in this study. A total of 688 were vaccinated with mRNA-1273 (mean age, 43.2 years; 76.7% women; 21.8% previously infected with SARS-CoV-2), and 959 with BNT162b2 (mean age, 44.7 years; 84.9% women; 13.2% previously infected). Higher antibody titers were observed in participants vaccinated with 2 doses of mRNA-1273 compared with those vaccinated with BNT162b2 (geometric mean titer [GMT], 3836 U/mL [95% CI, 3586-4104] vs 1444 U/mL [95% CI, 1350-1544]; P < .001) (Figure, A). Previously infected participants had higher antibody titers (GMT, 9461 U/mL [95% CI, 8494-10?539]) compared with previously uninfected participants (GMT, 1613 U/mL [95% CI, 1539-1690]) (P < .001). In both groups, those vaccinated with mRNA-1273 had higher antibody titers compared with those vaccinated with BNT162b2 (previously uninfected: GMT, 2881 U/mL [95% CI, 2721-3051] vs 1108 U/mL [95% CI, 1049-1170]; P < .001; previously infected: GMT, 10?708 U/mL [95% CI, 9311-12?315] vs 8174 U/mL [95% CI, 6923-9649]; P = .01). The difference in antibody levels according to previous infection was higher than the difference between the 2 mRNA vaccines (Figure, B and Table). Antibody levels negatively correlated with age in previously uninfected participants (correlation coefficient, ?0.22; P < .001), being highest among those younger than 35 years. Across all age categories, previously uninfected participants vaccinated with mRNA-1273 had higher antibody titers compared with those vaccinated with BNT162b2 (P < .001 for all comparisons; Figure, C). The type of mRNA vaccine remained independently associated with the log-transformed antibody titer in a multiple linear regression (P < .001, Table). This study demonstrated a significantly higher humoral immunogenicity of the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA-1273 vaccine (Moderna) compared with the BNT162b2 vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech), in infected as well as uninfected participants, and across age categories. The higher mRNA content in mRNA-1273 compared with BNT162b2 and the longer interval between priming and boosting for mRNA-12733 (4 weeks vs 3 weeks for BNT162b2) might explain this difference. https://www.statnews.com/2021/08/31/first-efficacy-trial-of-johnson-johnsons-hiv-vaccine-fails/ Not if you look at the international studies. Try Israel - April 2021. 60% of hospitalized Covid patients were fully vaccinated. Try the Bear weekend in Mass. Infection rates mirrored vaccination status. Breakthrough disease acquisition all over. May 1, 2021, CDC redefined breakthrough infection to exclude any positive PCR that did not result in hospitalization, thereby eliminating the reporting of the ACTUAL rate of disease acquisition and minimizing the blowback they knew would occur when the international results hit the mainstream media. You can't use doctored results to argue for scientific process. They manipulated the data by redefining breakthrough infection, the same way the definition of vaccine was changed in Webster's dictionary as of June 202. The "new" vaccine definition requires an immune response. Other dictionaries on that date defined a vaccine as preventing disease acquisition. And they thought no one would notice. Wonder why the people think a vaccine SHOULD prevent DISEASE, NOT MINIMIZE IT - maybe because that is the definition we were all taught. Stop the spin. Stop the bullying Just a reminder that you are considered vaccinated after 2 doses and 14 days. If the first dose puts you in the hospital that month, you’re unvaccinated. If the second dose puts you in the hospital before 2 weeks are up, you’re unvaccinated. If you test positive before that time, you’re unvaccinated. When the booster becomes an official requirement, all of the vaccinated will suddenly become unvaccinated again. They will remain unvaccinated until 14 days after their next injection. If they have an adverse reaction to that shot within 2 weeks, they will be considered unvaccinated. Then, once their 3 months is up (or really, 10 weeks if you take out the 14 day waiting period) they are considered, yet again… UNVACCINATED. So on for the next booster and the next. No one will help. No one will listen. No one will diagnose. #1 treatment is antidepressants - cause the labs and MRIs are all normal, so it must be in your head. I have never been more disgusted by the medical system. Absolutely no recognition of injuries. The hospitals only report the anaphylactic reactions within 15 minutes, because that is all that is mandated. I know. I submitted the data. I was not submitted despite dizziness, nausea, three falls, balance disturbance, muscle pains, spasms and twitches, inability to tell time on a clock, inability to log into work required sites (can't remember any passwords), peroneal nerve injury with foot drop, crawling muscle twitches and very painful spasms that make it difficult to even type this response. I will not be getting the second shot and may be fired because of the mandate. Who will help? I am on my own and trying to keep working, until the bureaucrats force me from healthcare after 40 years. I still can't taste or smell, and have many long symptoms from an initial illness February 2020. What a way to end a career - forced out by pseudoscience and data manipulation. https://www.dailypress.com/tidewater-review/va-tr-masks-schools-covid-0901-20210827-tbkqukt2mrhybfgkidx4il6rwa-story.html https://100percentfedup.com/judge-strips-mom-with-joint-custody-of-her-11-yr-old-son-the-right-to-visit-him-until-she-gets-covid-vaccine/ Judge not the father asking for this. https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_morningbrief/japan-suspends-another-1-million-moderna-doses-over-contamination-concerns_3971681.html https://www.fiercepharma.com/pharma/after-2-months-sidelines-lilly-s-covid-19-antibody-combo-makes-its-return https://www.baconsrebellion.com/wp/uva-as-petri-dish-for-covid-fighting-policy/ This academic year, UVa went “all in” on vaccinations, requiring all students (save a handful with medical or religious exemptions) to get the jab. Students who failed to comply were “unenrolled.” Faculty and staff were “strongly urged” to take the shot. As of last week, reported UVA Today, 97% of UVa students were fully vaccinated, as was 92% of the teaching and research faculty. Additionally, everyone is required to wear masks in public indoor places. The policies and protocols are much stricter than for Virginia as a whole. How are they working out? Well, a week after a return of students to classes, 80 new cases of COVID-19 have been reported. The seven-day moving average as of Aug. 26 this year was 7.6 new cases per day. That’s ahead of last year’s pace of 4.6 cases on Aug. 26. Last year, the COVID virus spread rapidly in the days after Aug. 26, leading to a mini-spike in the seven-day moving average of 29.6 before settling back down for a few months, and then exploding in February. I would be astonished if the pattern of spread this year matched that of last year. After all, we know that vaccines do work most of the time. Moreover, given the large number of of people who tested positive for the virus last year, many in the UVa community have acquired natural immunities. Here’s what we don’t know: How fast vaccination immunity wears off. If potency declines and students don’t get boosters, UVa could see a resurgence. We also don’t know much about the efficacy of naturally acquired immunities. Is it possible that the vax allows folks to catch the virus, suppresses symptoms & does not stop the spread? Is UVA testing folks regularly vaccinated or not? If not, I would suggest this is not a comprehensive study. How do we know the vaccinated are causing less harm than the unvaccinated? It just seems odd to me that they have decided to not test vaccinated folks once contact of infected person has been confirmed just to make sure the vaccine is doing what it’s supposed to be doing. Also, why are exposed unvaccinated folks being quarantined even with no symptoms but vaccinated folks that have been exposed are not being quarantined although it has been shown they can spread the virus? I would like to add one question - Is it possible that the jab hurts the natural immunity of the previously infected? It's possible it enhances; it's possible it does nothing; it's possible it detracts. One problem with UVA's coercion is that it eliminated a number of people to test on. I know some of the kids who have exemptions previously had Covid, but I don't know how many did not. And UVA did not gather that info in its onerous, contract of adhesion forms whether the applicant previously had Covid. I also know a large number of previously infected kids got the jab (they gave in to the bribe and coercion - not faulting them - faulting UVA). So it would be good to compare the data on previously infected jabbed vs not jabbed. But they probably won't like what they discover...so they won't! This was entirely predictable to anyone capable of rational thought. It's good to see they were wrong on forced vaxed. So good it did them. I keep hearing from friends and my wife's clients about "breakthroughs" in their families and friend circles. At least we can maybe get to herd immunity and trust in this bogus vaccine therapy will be eroded so vax compulsion become a thing of the past. Let people take the jab if they have confidence in it. https://www.doe.virginia.gov/support/health_medical/office/covid-19-faq-reopening.shtml 3. Are masks required during School Board Meetings? Yes, if the meeting is held indoors at a school. The State Health Commissioner issued a Public Health Order requiring all students, teachers, staff, and visitors age 2 and older to wear a mask indoors in private and public PreK-12 school settings, regardless of vaccination status. If the meeting is held at other locations, the Order does not apply. But during times of substantial or high transmission, public health recommends that all persons wear masks indoors regardless of vaccination status. Virginia is currently experiencing a high level of community transmission. https://www.modernhealthcare.com/law-regulation/judge-orders-ohio-hospital-treat-covid-19-patient-ivermectin https://www.modernhealthcare.com/labor/new-york-nixes-religious-exemption-covid-19-vaccine-mandate-healthcare-workers https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/covid19/94274 Among 68 British kids who survived an initial bout with serious cardiac complications of COVID-19 -- a condition known as multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) -- most showed resolution of lab and imaging abnormalities 1 year later, researchers said. Results for six of nine blood tests in all the children were normal by day 50, and no more than one-quarter were still abnormal for any of the other three parameters, reported Patrick Davies, MRCPCH, of Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust in England, and colleagues in a JAMA Pediatrics research letter. Also, 1-year imaging data indicated that aneurysms had disappeared in three-quarters of those who had them initially, and that only one child still had "bright" coronary arteries, a result that indicates ongoing inflammation.
