Yes no herd immunity but I think he means that the people that have had the vaccine will protect in a sense the ones that haven't had it.

thats correct and most of the deaths in Sweden were in nursing homes and they have admitted negligence in this regard. It could have been avoided had the vulnerable been protected and quarantined as much as possible. But we have to consider the costs of quarantining the healthy.

People completely fail to realize those early death and infection numbers can be highly misleading. Maybe there was an especially contagious group of travelers who entered a populated area of Stockholm early on. The early numbers are outliers where nobody had any idea what was happening and the numbers are not nearly as meaningful as they are now when it comes to policy. 

 

What really matters, and should be heavily weighted, is what is happening now and in the recent months. Sweden is basically through this with 2 or 3 deaths per day.

Utter nonsense, the virus was over with back in June. Anyone can get info from numerous peer reviewed papers, articles written by actual doctors, virologists, epidemiologists etc that uphold a conclusion that COVID19 is not a threat and never has been to anyone except a few unlucky 80+ year olds with other co-morbidities.

Such sarcasm, unless you truly believe what you wrote.  If that is true and you believe it well then, The world your living in is an alternate universe.

Just say no is why got the US and Europe into trouble.  So no, I don't need to try again.

Death rate for covid is low. USA and Europe will achieve herd immunity far sooner than Thailand and will reap the economic benefits. You can run but you can’t hide forever from covid.

Sorry the good doctor is simply quoting what experts are saying in the UK.

The UK has a huge infection problem (and a few other countries) and Dr Pongs statements are only applicable to there as the main problem in Thailand is not the infection but the lack of tourists and other business and visa holders being rightfully kept out for now. Thailand and the far East in general will recover much faster, health wise (not politically).

Whenever I see a European country on the tv news most seem to be wearing masks, but they haven't stopped the "second wave". I wonder how that could be?

You don't become immune, people have contracted it more than once.

only very few are said to have caught it more than once. Immunity is matter of degree not necessarily absolute. The fact that a few may have been reinfected out of millions doesn't prove that there is no immunity.

Apa itu eKYC dan mengapa itu masa depan Know Your Customer?

Apa itu eKYC dan mengapa itu masa depan Know Your Customer?
Mungkin Anda pernah mendengar atau membaca tentang konsep eKYC (Kenali Pelanggan Elektronik). Tapi apa sebenarnya eKYC itu? Apa arti istilah eKYC? Kami akan mencoba menemukannya di artikel ini.

EVOLUSI KYC
Seperti yang telah kita bahas di entri lain blog, Know Your Customer atau KYC adalah prosedur untuk mengidentifikasi dan memverifikasi identitas pelanggan. Proses tersebut terdiri dari serangkaian pemeriksaan yang dilaksanakan pada tahap pertama hubungan dengan klien untuk memverifikasi bahwa dia adalah yang dia katakan, dengan mempertimbangkan dokumen identitas dan personifikasinya.

Proses ini dipengaruhi oleh serangkaian peraturan yang berkaitan dengan, misalnya, anti pencucian uang (AML), pendanaan teroris atau standar identifikasi elektronik dan layanan kepercayaan (eIDAS).

Praktik KYC dapat dikembangkan secara offline (secara langsung) dan online (jarak jauh). Di sinilah kita dapat melihat evolusi KYC menuju eKYC.

DARI KYC KE EKYC: TRANSFORMASI DIGITAL (for security  Data Protection & Data Privacy in Indonesia)
Semua pelaku bisnis dan pelaku ekonomi, terutama lembaga keuangan dan bank, mengalami proses digitalisasi yang drastis. Transformasi digital telah menjadi bagian dari perubahan paling relevan dalam organisasi dalam satu dekade terakhir, membuat mereka yang melupakan tugas ini kehilangan peluang di sektor mereka atau bahkan menghilang.

Perusahaan dan organisasi sedang berjuang untuk mengubah dan mendigitalkan proses yang tampaknya sulit untuk diotomatisasi dan menjadi jauh. Namun, bisnis khusus telah muncul untuk mencapai tugas ini, menggunakan teknologi mutakhir seperti kecerdasan buatan dan pembelajaran mesin untuk mengubah dan mengoptimalkan proses.

Perusahaan yang kami kategorikan telah muncul RegTech, mendampingi bisnis dalam penerapan peraturan dan prosedur hukum dengan solusi yang mengoptimalkan, meningkatkan, dan mengurangi biaya proses ini.

well yes I can't argue with that

That's the question everyone should be asking and I think the answer lies in the mass testing.

People should think of early death numbers just like stock openings. Many stocks shoot up on emotion, but they almost always stabilize to where they are supposed to be in the long term.

 

This is exactly what is happening with Sweden and people's objection to it. The long term numbers are great, but they are focusing on the less meaningful short term opening numbers. Bad logic leads you to the wrong conclusions. 

[d2b2]

Sadly, the "new Normal" is going to be increasing numbers of virus jumping from animals to humans. We have been enjoying life on borrowed time, avoiding the inevitable transfers of pathogens. 

Urban sprawl, increased population, increasing travel and global warming are just a few of the aggregating factors. 

The world needs to prepare for more viruses like Covid 19

News to me, Rupert Murdoch has been influencing politics in Australia for decades, and the US since he became an American citizen. IMO he would be very miffed to hear Fox News described as left-wing, or not mainstream.

[tribalfusion001]

Prof Sunetra Gupta in the UK has said we have 80 to 90% cross immunity with other coronviruses to have sufficient protection already and that would seem correct as most people are not affected by covid-19.

Vaccination is NOT immunization!

Lord almighty. 

 

The US CDC:

Vaccination: The act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease. Immunization: A process by which a person becomes protected against a disease through vaccination. This term is often used interchangeably with vaccination or inoculation.

 

Vaccination IS immunization!  interchangeable words.   LOL  cry
