Done with Covid?
Are you aware that vaccines are failing spectacularly with regards to Omicron infection?
Hospitalizations are another story, but this notion of the vaccines ending Covid is just not holding up with new variants.
- jwagenet 5y agoWhat? I thought it has been pretty clear that even with Omicron, the vaccine dramatically reduces risk. In WA, the unvaccinated are 2-4x more likely to get covid and 5-11x more likely to be hospitalized. https://www.doh.wa.gov/Portals/1/Documents/1600/coronavirus/data-tables/421-010-CasesInNotFullyVaccinated.pdf https://www.doh.wa.gov/Portals/1/Documents/1600/coronavirus/...
- ggy5567 5y agoI certainly hope so, but the numbers (how great the benefit is) keep getting lower. And your stats are just per population. Maybe the people who refuse to get vaccinated are also 2-3x as likely to refuse to wear masks or avoid crowds. We need real stats somehow by randomly testing populations then seeing how they fare.
