In the period 15 March – 28 June 2022, little or no effectiveness of the basic series is visible. The VE of the booster vaccination was estimated at 63% and the VE from the repeat shot at 77%. These estimates are increasingly difficult to interpret, because the build-up of immunity through previous infections plays an increasingly important role. Nevertheless, the repeat shot for over-60s clearly offers extra protection against hospitalization compared to booster vaccination.

Monitor the obits at your local funeral home and you will find people in their 40s-50s age group taking the lead!

On the plus side the unvaxed can make $1200 a month selling their plasma around here.

Not only that, but also take into account that those who are vaccinated are far more likely to have an underlying condition when compared to unvaccinated. So when they are infected the underlying condition will cause more complications, making the comparision with the unvaccinated skewed.

The pro vaxxers absolutely hate personal anecdotes but I've got a doozy. Yesterday morning (Sunday) I was messaged by two of my friends that their moms just just died from heart failure. TWO of my friends that don't know each other. I'm sure someone will say that I'm making it all up but they would be wrong.
