re: Israel Pfizer efficacy against covid-19 hospitalizations broken down by age group

for a healthy young person, its not doing shite. if it does "work", thats a coin flip

Now do it by education level.

The numbers will look almost identical. Maybe even be skewed to less vaccination for more educated, because anyone with a brain has already figured out what op presented. Many of us have been stating for a long time that the numbers should be broken down by age group. If you break this down even further, I would bet you will find the the 6.2 under 40 are fat or have other health conditions.

Yes.

Guilty.

So Israel made a clear delineation between death FROM Covid and death WITH Covid, correct?

I used to be on this train too, until the total US death count came out, and 2020 showed approximately 550,000 more deaths than year before. So, it lines up pretty damn linear with covid death numbers

---

They lined up pretty well on a weekly basis throughout 2020, as well, barring the 6-8 week lag in reporting.

I know we've gone back and forth in a thread or two, and this pertains to the one where you posted the weekly deaths chart with data that lags (the grey shaded area). It seems to be sourced from the same data as the weekly total deaths, which I believe aren't added until after the CDC receives death cert data. These counts lag further than just the shaded area of the chart, and we can see a hump being backfilled that was not shaded when you posted the chart 2 weeks ago. It will continue filling out until it closely matches the totals from more up-to-date data.

I'm still not convinced the vaccine is the proper route for people like me in the low risk groups.

But here we are...people trying to force medicine on people that otherwise don't need it.

---

It's a lot like Obamacare. Forcing young healthy people to pay for health insurance, not because they need it, but they needed their participation to help lower costs.

When the Dems force things on America they usually frick it all up and cause much worse conditions and costs.

7 Vaccinated Florida Patients Die of COVID; Nurse Calls Situation 'Disturbing'

quote:

---

As of August 9, more than 166 million people in the U.S. have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. In that same time, the CDC said they received 8,054 reports of fully vaccinated people either being hospitalized or dying from the virus. The majority of these cases, 5,928—or 74 percent—were in people 65 years old or older.

So .00004852%

---

Yeah I read that this morning and thought the same thing. What is disturbing about that number? Seems pretty damn good to me.

But your number should be .00004852 or .004852%. Still amazing though

On second glance, something doesn’t jive with the numbers in the OP.

Ages 12-40 would have 10 serious cases per 100,000 according to this chart. Ages 12-49 account for about 35% of the state.

That means that if every single person in the state ages 12-40 were infected we would expect 161 serious cases.

That’s if 100% of the population was infected. If 60% have been infected we would expect 96 serious cases under 40 (The entire pandemic up to this point)

Do serious cases mean deaths?

We know for a fact we have had way more serious cases than that in those age groups even though it is extremely rare. Something is off with those numbers.

Is this Israeli study based on the Israeli people?

Because if I had to guess Louisiana probably has a higher percentage of fat people than Israel.
