Creating a perpetuum mobile?
... or don't.
Thank you for taking the trouble to try and explain this to me. I had looked at the original study, that's where the 5-9% number comes from. Apparently 324 out of 6328 people (5%) in the vaccinated group and 89 out of 1020 people (9%) of the (not vaccinated) prior infection group tested positive on Covid-19.
I have understood the conclusion of the study. My question is, how does one get there? Shouldn't the conclusion be: vaccinated people are more likely to develop an illness with Covid-19 like symptoms? That, when tested, doesn't appear to be Covid19 after all? Or, as you suggest, does not develop into a full blown case?
How can one, by only investigating people that are hospitalized with Covid-19-like symptoms, extend a conclusion to the general population?
I'd prefer to be called a 'natural' instead of an 'antivaxxer' |-)
Putting aside the fact that 100% of people die, natural immunity the only bullshit that made us survive for millions of years.
Could someone help me out? I'm trying to better understand this study.
Patients that were hospitalized with 'COVID-19–like illness' were investigated. Of that group only a small percentage, about 5-9% appears to truly have COVID-19. This percentage is higher in (not vaccinated) patients with a prior infection than in vaccinated patients. How does one get from there to 'vaccination protects better against COVID-19 than a prior infection'?
Will Andoid 12 allow for call recording again? Or are consumers still not trusted with that technology?
"...argued against source code analysis by claiming that the program, consisting of 170,000 lines of MATLAB code, is so dense it would take eight and a half years to review at a rate of ten lines an hour."
'Dense code', this alone should be reason to dismiss the code as not trustworthy.
And now you're averaging over 500 covid dead each day
What a great idea that was...
The big fallacy here is that you are led to believe that death can be prevented. People have always died and will always die. And there will always be fluctuations in the numbers of deaths. It's not that half the population is dying. And yes, since spaces get more crowded the fluctuations might increase. But it's up to you, do you want a happy free life with a natural death? Or do you want to live in constant fear, restricted by a government that puts 'disease and virus control above all human rights? Since I'm locked up I'm afraid having to tell you in Europe we're headed for the latter.
Living in Europe here. It all started all too reasonable: in order to prevent hospitals not being able to take care of the flood of patients the people were asked to help spread the Corona virus. Gruesome images of dying elderly spread a fear faster than even the virus could keep up with. Now, not one year later I'm locked up in my own appartment with many collegues and friends saying it's for our own good.
If you haven't already, I sincerely hope you don't fall for the trap. They only way out of this is accepting that someday life will end.
... how coincident is that?
... to not make this app mandatory as soon as it has gained some acceptance.
If we give the government the mandate to forcefully inject our bodies with vaccines against measles, then why not against an arbitrary flu. Having the flu causes economic damage, since you will not show up at work.
And, why not have a chip implanted that permanently measures your health, so medical attention can be sought immediately when necessary? Surely you wouldn't want your children to risk being late for cancer treatment?
Oh well, now we have a chip, why not add some more features that are useful for running society more smoothly?
It's a slippery slope and it's bodily integrity that is at stake here.
And yet another reason to postpone buying a new cellphone. I'll never get rid of my 2012 phone...
You should not.
The best things in life go on sale sooner or later.
