What is the current survival rate of unvaccinated people that contract Covid in the 12 year old to 79 year old age range?

What about a European swallow?

Lol! So we don’t really know but without a doubt vaccinations prevent death from the delta variant of Covid-19.

I understand that it is more contagious and NOT more virulent

85% of those 70 years old and over have survived. I'm guessing that Omar the tent maker was not their clothier

Big picture, hear you! My picture as I type:
Son has it Day 8
Unvaccinated wife missing him (partitioned off from him) and worried about him
Sister has it Day 12 (2 hospital visits for dehydration and "brutal" nausea as she has stated)
Aunt has it Day ?? (ICU, no vent but that is last effort)
Mother and FIL have every high risk health issue that would be life threatening if they got it.
I had to cancel medical procedure and important business trip last week
Life would be better without it! IMO, Vax or no Vax, individuals doing the right things to stop the spread while living their best lives should be focus for the time being
So you were lying before about the Aunt being on a ventilator?

Just the ones that we know of, counted 16 known cases that have resulted directly from contact with this cousin, across AR, TN, MS, and LA, including their own father who is presently awaiting quadruple bypass surgery (widowmaker 90% blocked) and an aunt who is now on ventilator for est 3-weeks.

Yep, she did this. Yep, aunt choking for air at max oxygen so admitted to ICU today. Single kidney still working, good news. Thanks for your concern.

What was the CFR of Covid before the vaccine? What is the CFR with the vacccine?

Is anything in Africa more cultured than anything in Europe?

When I was 8 years old, my parents allowed me to play with the kid next door knowing that he had the chicken pox. It was in May and near the end is second grade for me.
One night I woke up thirsty and no amount of water would quench it. When my parents woke up they looked in my mouth and I had developed the chicken pox inside my throat. Then my body for two weeks.
Might as well get it over with.

I wouldnt say fear but it isnt a case of sniffles for me. Day 11 and still fever and coughing. Had to go back to dr for stronger antibiotics because I have pneumonia in a lung. Looking forward to taste and smell coming back. And looking forward to not hacking up a lung. Ive never been sick for this duration before.

It is causing breakthrough infections. That's why.

I dunno. But you know that. I'm not scared. Why are you scared.

You can still get a version of quaaludes in South Africa. I'd say their pyramids are a little more cultured. They seem to be winning in the wild animal attacks too.

Just like the original surge the deaths take a while to happen. First case rises, then hospitalization rises, the deaths….

How many “Covid” deaths are a result of secondary infections from the hospital?

Yes, when you hear “mild”, this is an example of that OT
