Source?
From listening to nurses and doctors, I get the impression that most people in hospitals with Covid-issues lately are vaccinated; and I trust real people with real experiences over authorities with agendas.
- usr1106 5y ago> I get the impression that most people in hospitals with Covid-issues lately are vaccinated I read some statistics over that the other day. It is correct when looking only at hospital patients. The explanation is that most who need hospital care come from a risk group. And risk groups are fully vaccinated by over 90% (here). So you end up with high absolute numbers of vaccinated hospital patients. If you look at a somewhat comparable group of people, chances to need hospital care are manyfold for the unvaccinated. It's true for higher risk groups and for lower risk groups. Vaccinations are not perfect protection against anything, but they reduce risk by a high factor.
- codr7 5y agoWasn't filling up hospitals the problem we were trying to solve by vaccinating people in the first place? Isn't that the excuse people use to harass anyone who doesn't feel like being experimented on for profit?
