Poland is an odd duck in that list. Their vaccination rate per day is/was high, and those who got the first are just as eager to gte the second shot, but still way too many people who don’t want it at all. The far right government expects to reach up to 89%, but to do that they needs to push the vaccine on their own.

We’re at 71% partly and 48% fully vaccinated in NL. Should be around 85% partly and 70% fully in 5 weeks, which is around the time the second wave started last year. Over 10% of the population was tested positive over the past 17 months, with the actual number of infections estimated to be much higher. Still ways this could go very wrong but I’m hopeful we won’t need any measures anymore.

A few major bumps in hospitalizations as expected after most restrictions ended but considering most measures including masks are still off the table, and over 90% is now delta, things are looking ‘ok‘ for now. Deaths around 3-4 a day. It feels like we’re back at the start of the pandemic, but with better odds this round.

I imagine the vaccine supply is consistent and equal across the EU, uptake will vary by country tough and here in North America politics is playing a big roll. The difference between Canadian and American vaccination rates now and into the future is purely politics, we have just as many regular wing nuts and leftwing organic granola eaters as they do. The large difference in vaccination rates is all due to rightwing propaganda and political tribalism fueled by racism. We even started vaccinating later than the Americans and have had supply issues, so we were giving single shots to more people for awhile. Now there are no vaccine supply issues in Canada and though the vaccine rate is leveling off, we are almost at 80% eligible for the first dose and over 60% fully vaxxed so far.

I am a little slow this morning. What do the event numbers signify? Why is there none for the fist _id (assuming that is the patient identification number)? No information on preexisting conditions?
The _id number signifies the specific age groups during the specified time period (in this case 7/11/21 - 7/17/21), so the id numbers are for groups not individuals or individual cases. The event numbers signify whatever event is defined in the "Type_of_event" (4th) column, so it could be either death or hospitalization, depending on how the specific row is defined. Yes, if you want to analyze each individual case on their database, you can get info on pre-existing conditions, but that would be a different data pull.

Alabama mother says she regrets not getting vaccinated after losing son to COVID-19
“It took watching my son die and me suffering the effects of covid for us to realize we need the vaccine,” Christy Carpenter said in a recent interview with The Washington Post. “We did not get vaccinated when we had the opportunity and regret that so much now.”

She said her 28-year-old son, Curt Carpenter, died in early May after having to stay in the hospital, where he received oxygen treatment for weeks, following his COVID-19 diagnosis in March.

Christy Carpenter told the Post her family had been hesitant to get vaccinated because of how quickly a vaccine became available.

“It took years to create other vaccines, and the coronavirus vaccine was created very quickly. That made us very nervous,” she told the newspaper.

The mother said she, her son and her daughter had all contracted the virus around the same time in March. She told the Post that they all had exhibited mild symptoms initially but that their conditions grew more serious within days.

Christy Carpenter said she and her son were taken to a local hospital after problems with their oxygen levels and that they both came down with pneumonia not long after.

In the weeks that followed, Christy Carpenter said her son’s health only worsened, as he continued to suffer from issues with his oxygen levels and pneumothorax before dying on May 2 after two months in the hospital.

Remarking on the increase in cases recently, Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R) said it's “time to start blaming the unvaccinated, not the regular folks.”

“It’s the unvaccinated folks that are letting us down,” she said, adding that folks should exercise “common sense.”

“These folks are choosing a horrible lifestyle and self-inflicted pain,” Ivey said. “You know we’ve got to get folks to take the shot. The vaccine is the greatest weapon we have to fight COVID, there’s not question about that, the data proves it.”

So in the end you are concluding more people dying from the shot than the virus?
I'm not sure where you're coming up with that assessment, since the data I pulled has zero to do with people dying from shots. I feel it's pretty clear because at the top of the page it says "Corona-related mortality and hospitalizations..".

What it does seem to indicate is that people in Israel who have been vaccinated don't seem to have robust protection against death or hospitalization from the virus. It does seem to indicate that the vax is helping to a small percentage, but maybe only a 25% efficacy rate from hospitalization. If you look at the numbers you can see that about 3x more people who have been vaxxed vs unvaxxed have been hospitalized in Israel during the recent week in question. That's among a population which is around 80% vaxxed vs 20% unvaxxed. If the vaccine was not effective at all in preventing hospitalization, we would expect to see about 4x more vaxxed people being hospitalized vs unvaxxed, as that would be congruent with the national vaxx rate, but since it's only 3x we can extrapolate that it is helping around 25% of the people who are vaxxed from staying out of the hospital when they might otherwise be admitted. Definitely no where near what Biden and the CDC seem to be claiming, but then again this assessment is based on recent data, not the data from March to May, which the CDC is focusing on and using to site their 97% efficacy in preventing hospitalization statistics.

I have been seeing some Covid patient Lung images at work . This is what a normal Lungs looks like and what a Covid Lungs look like.

I was in the hospital & rehab to regain my strength for 6 weeks. Didn't walk on my own for 4 weeks. I got fucked up by Covid, no fun at all.
Went to a pulmonary Dr last week & he tested my lungs & my oxygen levels, and they sucked. I lost 50% of my lung capacity & 20% of my ability to use oxygen.
He said with medication I should improve, but never back to where I used to be.
Oh fucking well, it is what it is.
Bright side, I'm alive and can still smoke herb & basically I'm fortunate.
Not as deep a hit, but I don't really give a shit, just a few extra puffs & I'm good
Did you hear that the only mask that will work against Delta is a N95 or a KN95, those paper fuckers do basically nothing
I got these yesterday on Amazon. I did some research and they got good reviews & the price was good. 20 masks for $25

Anyway, mask up/get a shot/pray that you dont get it.

Oh, I might as well throw some more fucked up news out there while I'm at it.
Fauci was giving interviews this morning & this is what he said about the present situation & what to expect in the fall (not good)

You probably want to opt for real N95's, and avoid the KN95 masks. They aren't NIOSH approved (as they don't meet the NIOSH standards for use in healthcare settings), and the CDC just pulled the EUA on them at the end of June:

It turns out that silk masks are pretty effective, more so than cotton:

Yeah mean that a Covid Vaccine doesn't protect against say a car accident?

You are assuming that these hospitalizations are due to covid, that is the troll that is being pushed by death cultists to trick people into thinking that they have some cherry picked information that is just confusing enough pull this shit.

So no, still just Death cult trolling by you.Screen Shot 2021-07-26 at 6.24.15 AM.png

Republican anti-masker has COVID for a second time

https://www.rawstory.com/u/sarah_k_burris
Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA) announced Sunday that he has COVID-19 for a second time.

The announcement from on Facebook in which he thanked well-wishers for their outpouring of love and kindness.

"I keep my family's private business very quiet, because of the evil in the world, yet we are uplifted by the love of God's children, and quiet privacy does not mean secrecy, so, here's the update," he wrote. "I have COVID, Becca has COVID, my son has COID. Becca and I had COVID before, early on, in January 2020, before the world really knew what it was. So, this is our second experience with the CCP biological attack weaponized virus...and this episode is far more challenging. It has required all of my devoted energy."

Higgins announced in May that he would never wear a mask because it wasn't helping, and he believed it was trapping bacteria somehow.

"Can you smell through that mask?" said Higgins. "Then you're not stopping any sort of a virus. It's part of the dehumanization of the children of God. You're participating in it by wearing a mask."

"What you're wearing is a bacteria trap; it's not helping your health or anybody else's," Higgins added.

Higgins is also the same member of Congress who claimed that his wife has the gift of "premonition." So, it's unclear if she prognosticated that the family would get COVID-19.

Higgins hasn't announced whether or not he is vaccinated, but many Republicans in the caucus aren't.

There's another question: how would Higgins know that what he and his wife had in Jan. 2020 was COVID? It was so early that there were few people even being tested.

Went to Walgreens earlier, they had vaccine doses. It was a really long line. Better late than never I guess.
Just to be clear, was not there for the vaccine, got mine asap. I was just kinda shocked at how many were actually there and had waited this long. It was a bit funny not a single one of the people in line had a mask, just crammed into the queue that ran down the chip and soda aisle. Of course I was high so just imagined the little cartoon covid bug dancing around them.

That's among a population which is around 80% vaxxed vs 20% unvaxxed.
Israel vax stats today: 58% fully vaccinated and an additional 5% partially vaccinated. That totals to almost 85% of the adult population having had at least 1 shot. Your numbers, your math, your "extrapolation", your conclusions, it's all dumb af. You got the double-down-on-stupid virus, same brain malfunction that got Trump elected. The more stupid nonsense you excrete the further you will go to defend it as it becomes increasingly difficult and ego crushing to acknowledge how utterly dumb you've been so far.

The following article is written especially for people like you, read it and pull your head out of your ass now before it gets stuck forever.

Peej will be another of the clowns begging for the vaccine as they’re hooking him up to a ventilator.

OMG, you're dumb. What do you think "Corona-related mortality and hospitalizations" means? Corona-related car accidents? What are you off on?
