KING COUNTY, Wash. — In a Friday afternoon briefing, King County Health Officer Dr. Jeff Duchin discussed some updated data that adjusted for age in regards to COVID-19.

When adjusted for age, with the individuals being more likely to catch the virus, be hospitalized and die the older they are, the data reveals that unvaccinated individuals are 67 times more likely to die from COVID-19 compared to those who are vaccinated.

Duchin said that, likewise, the unvaccinated are six times more likely to test positive for COVID-19 and 37 times more likely to be hospitalized after catching the disease.

Duchin explained that common data shared isn't particularly useful since it doesn't account for these adjustments, adding that even breakthrough cases do not mean vaccine failure.

Also, he revealed that the average age for those who die from the virus has dropped as more young unvaccinated individuals catch the more infectious delta variant.

Firstly, don't be stupid.

The ingredients are publicly available - they wouldn't get approved if no-one knew what was in the fucking things.

Secondly there have been FIVE BILLION vaccinations given so it's nailed on that at least some have those have been given to people taking your meds.

So go and talk to the doctor who prescribed them to you and ask him "Is it safe to take the vaccine?".

Duh.

Vietnam’s plan to prohibit residents of locked-down Ho Chi Minh City from leaving their homes from Monday has triggered panic buying, as authorities prepare to call in the military to distribute food in the country's largest city.

The scramble for purchases is hurting efforts to contain the spiralling coronavirus outbreak in the city of 10 million, said the official Vietnam News Agency.

The military will begin distributing food to households in the city, working with volunteers, veterans and unions, said Vo Minh Luong, deputy minister of efence.

The army will oversee the enforcement of stay-home orders that were extended through Sept 15 in Ho Chi Minh City and “assist the city to ensure its food supply” for the next 15 days, according to a post on a government website.

Local officials must detail the number of stores in their areas and calculate the needs of households, the notice said.

Authorities are increasingly concerned that months of tough anti-virus measures have yet to contain the spread of Covid, and aim to further reduce movements by Ho Chi Minh City residents. They have already been restricted from leaving home and can do so for only essential reasons, such as getting food, seeking medical treatment or going to work sites approved by the government.

Vietnam is battling its worst Covid wave with a record 10,650 new cases and 390 deaths reported on Friday. Ho Chi Minh City has seen more than 165,000 reported domestic patients since April 27, the start of latest outbreak. The city has recorded 80% of the country’s Covid-19 deaths.

The ratcheting up of enforcement will include restricting residents from shopping for food starting Monday in areas of the city deemed high-risk and very high-risk based on the number of virus cases and the possibility of infections spreading.

Residents in other areas will be allowed to shop for food once a week. The city will also increase scrutiny of companies to ensure they comply with restrictions in order to remain operating, the Tuoi Tre newspaper said.
Less than 2% of the Vietnam’s 98 million people have been fully vaccinated as of Aug 19, according to a the health ministry.

Long queues of people were seen outside markets and shelves at supermarkets in Ho Chi Minh City were emptying on Saturday, witnesses and state media said.

“It’s looking chaotic,” said a person who gave her name only as Nguyen in the city’s District 2.

“Too many people are rushing out to buy food and essential stuff for their hard days ahead,” she told Reuters. “I have managed to by some food, as I don’t want to die from hunger before dying from coronavirus.”

The ruling Communist Party on Friday announced a decision to replace Nguyen Thanh Phong as chairman of the city’s People’s Committee. It did not give a reason, but analysts cited his poor handling of the outbreak.

Thanks to Republican Nazis like Marc Bernier Florida is in a terrible shape. How many people have already died because they listened to this inbred Republican HoBo?
Thank God he is not asking any questions anymore. The World is better off without him.

"It’s with great gladness that WASS and Southern Stoned Propaganda announce the passing of Marc Bernier, who wrongfully informed and lied to listeners on WASS for over 30 years. We kindly ask that Marc’s family asks for forgiveness for the grief he has caused. His wealth should be donated to COVID patients."

Japan looks at mixing and matching COVID-19 vaccines


Japan could mix AstraZeneca PLC’s COVID-19 shots with those developed by other companies in order to speed up its vaccination effort, according to the minister in charge of the country’s rollout.


The idea would be to combine the dose with one from Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech SE or Moderna Inc., Taro Kono said Sunday on a Fuji TV news program. Since AstraZeneca recommends eight weeks between its two shots, it’s likely that time could be shortened if combined, Kono added.


Studies on mixing COVID-19 vaccines so far show that it could result in an equal if not stronger immune response. But it’s not clear which combination could give the best protection that will last the longest, and there’s some evidence that mixing could cause worse side effects. Countries like Canada, Germany and France allow mix-and-match vaccines, but the U.S. has warned against doing so.

It's not a race. But apparently it is. He's done the complete backflip. Had my second astra jab today. Taken 3 months. The wifes had 2 jabs of Pfizer only took her 3 weeks. Fook scomo.

I agree that the schadenfreude is immature — but surely you agree that the vaccinated who die deserve more sympathy than the unvaccinated who overburden hospitals due to their ignorance.

Apparently, "Unvaccinated people are about 29 times more likely to be hospitalized with Covid-19 than those who are fully vaccinated, according to a CDC study released Tuesday".

They won't take a vaccine designed specifically for the purpose but they'll take sheep dewormer, hydroxychloroquine, bleach and whatever else the right wing fever swamp suggests.

Yes, poor white people (including conservatives) make up a large percentage of the unvaccinated.

Though, blacks (not likely conservatives) also are less likely to get vaccinated — 15% less likely.

18-24-year-olds (not likely conservatives) are half as likely to be vaccinated compared to the elderly.

So, it's not just those who "hate gubmint", right?

Who is not vaccinated in the US? - Vox

“There have really been persistent gaps between white people compared to Black and Hispanic people, with Black and Hispanic rates lagging behind pretty consistently across states,” said Samantha Artiga, vice president and director of racial equity and health policy at the Kaiser Family Foundation.

At the start of July, the vaccination rate was about 15 percent lower for Black people than for white people in the US...
