From a quick look, it seems to be a legitimate site, but the articles haven’t been peer reviewed yet, so you’d have to be cautious about reading too much into them. (Although peer review doesn’t completely rectify that issue.)Quote:

Not sure how 5% of infections in 70+ seniors ending in death means this is over though…
Also not sure what the point about VP getting boosted is. She got infected, and since she’s boosted she has a much greater chance of fighting off the infection instead of ending up in hospital or dead.
You need to just ignore naked shorts. He's a straight up moranic kook.Quote:

Yeah, I doubt even their new private equity overlords are gonna branch into health care. Prineville OR, hometown to Les Schwab Tires, is an antivaxer patriot hotbedQuote:

What’s your point?
He has none.
This. He's a complete, fucking moran. People should quit quoting him.Quote:

8000 time more deadly for the elderly vs kids is what I've heard quoted a bunch and that math roughly matches the chart. COVID has basically the largest gap in old vs young of any virus we've discovered.
If you had posted a link to the article instead of a picture of the headline, people could read the article which states that 75% of the vaccinated people who died did not have a booster. That's why you're supposed to get a booster.Quote:

I personally would. In fact, I recently did. :DQuote:

I got a Moderna booster in Dec 2021 and have so far been pretty careful (wearing a mask most crowded places unless outdoors on a few occasions, washing hands pretty regularly and all, but probably want to plan for the next round that I think will be coming. So some are at 3 or 4 with booster, and I'm at 2 with the last booster basically 5 months ago. So another Moderna? Or any collective advice on nextround of booster...

Third shot should be another mRNA. Don’t make a recommendation of Pfizer vs. Moderna. From what I’ve seen previously, Pfizer may have a very marginal benefit.
Not sure on current guidance for timing for different ages.
What have you read about Pfizer having a very marginal benefit?Quote:

Not specific to J&J as the first shot. It appears that mixing shots has benefits, but the Moderna booster is stronger. If you’d had Pfizer originally then it looks like the next shot being Moderna has clear benefits. Not nearly as big a benefit with following Moderna with Pfizer vs just sticking with the same.
For what it’s worth, I was vaccinated and boosted with Moderna, will probably go for Pfizer next, but IANAD.
"The vaccinated made up 42% of fatalities in January and February during the highly contagious omicron variant's surge, compared with 23% of the dead in September, the peak of the delta wave"
Point was your silver bullet ain't so shinny and the media is even telling you. Best of luck with your Boosters.
2/3 of the population is vaccinated, and much higher percentages for the high risk folks, who are still at higher risk after vaccination compared to the rest of the vaccinated, just relatively less risk than without vaccination. So the majority (vaccinated and higher risk) account for the minority of deaths.Quote:

All of this is expected. So what was your point again?
Why do I even open this thread. I'm going skiing.
I'm impressed this person thinks people should take them seriously about various economic and market issues in other threads, yet can't parse that statistic.
Seriously. Maybe a picture will help:Quote:
