Lets go one step further and just create vaxxed and unvaxxed countries. I'm completely serious. Then we can all live by our own beliefs and the
vaccinated wont be able to blame the unvaccinated when outbreaks inevitably happen. You can go on trying to place blame on the unvaccinated, but it
will eventually become clear who is really stealing your freedom. Only when we stop fighting each other and buying into the political propaganda will
we ever escape this nightmare.
Now to repeat myself for the 100th time. The Delta strain is mostly resistant to the vaccines, vaccinated people catch and spread it, and it has
exploded even in the most vaccinated nations. I wrote a detailed
thread about this
not long ago examining how Delta is much more contagious but also several times less deadly than the early variants. We need to start looking at the
lethality and not just case numbers.
A vaccine which works should produce herd immunity when over 60% of a population is vaccinated. Yet we have nations where over 90% of the population
is fully vaccinated and they are still experiencing an outbreak of Delta just as big or bigger than less vaccinated nations. Many of those highly
vaccinated nations also have higher death rates than less vaccinated nations.
The Covid-19 vaccines do next to nothing to prevent the spread or symptoms of Delta because they were designed to combat the early variants of
SARS-CoV-2. Those early variants were far more deadly, especially the very first variant which leaked out of the lab. Up until the Covid-19 vaccines,
the highest efficacy ever achieved for a coronavirus vaccine was about 30 to 40%.
Yet they somehow achieved a 95% efficacy for their Covid-19 vaccine. The only reason they were able to create such an effective vaccine for a
coronavirus so quickly is because they created SARS-CoV-2. It was a man-made virus which had weaknesses they could target. However, now that
SARS-CoV-2 has had over a year to evolve in the real world, it's a very different virus, and those same weaknesses no longer exist.
You still hear many people quote the "95% effective" number even though it clearly doesn't apply to the newer strains. They got that number from their
initial trials which involved a relatively small number of people. The Pfizer trial tested the vaccine on 21,720 people, 2 of which died according to
their
report. One died of blood clotting and the other of heart failure, which we now
know are two of the most common side-effects.
They claim the deaths weren't related to the vaccine, and it's certainly possible, but lets just assume one of those deaths was due to the vaccine.
Doing the math, we find that even one death out of 21,720 equates to a 0.0046% death rate. That may not sound like much, but let us consider the fact
183 million people in the US have been fully vaccinated, 0.0046% of 183 million is 8418.
Now if we look at
OpenVAERS we find that 6981 deaths have been reported in the US as a result of the
Covid-19 vaccine. It's fair to assume not all deaths have been reported, so the reported deaths are slightly lower than the estimated number of 8418.
Even that estimation is probably a bit lower than the actual number of deaths caused by the Covid-19 vaccines.
In any case, the estimation still lines up very closely with the reality. Also, 7-8 thousand deaths may not seem like a lot, perhaps even a reasonable
trade-off for the lives saved by the vaccine... and I might agree with that if the vaccine actually had a 95% efficacy rate for the new strains like
Delta. However, 6981 deaths is still an extremely high number, it's more deaths than all vaccinations combined over decades.
The problem for big pharma now is they can't design a vaccine for the new strains without going through another approval process which will cost them
a lot of time and money. So they have to keep pushing the same exact vaccine which they tested in these early trials with such a small number of
people it's very hard to actually derive any meaningful safety data, as I have shown in the case of the Pfizer study.
EDIT: btw I did the same calculations using the VAERS data from Australia and once again the estimation was very close to the real reported number of
deaths.
