blackprince Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 All of the vaccines work. None of them work 100%, either in preventing transmission or death. Their success to date is based on reducing the viral load, not on elimination. 90% of UK adults have had at least 1 jab, 80% have had 2 jabs. An unknown number have had 3 jabs. And transmission and death continue in these groups, albeit at a lower rate. Surely this is now agreed and accepted. All these vaccines fade after a comparatively short time, hence the booster programme in the UK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How it behaves against a different vaccine/immunity profile here will be seen quite quickly. Europe too faces the same uncertainty. Reports that symptoms may be milder have yet to be confirmed. As ever, get the vax and the 'boost' asap . . . "South Africa’s daily confirmed Covid-19 cases almost quadrupled from Tuesday as the omicron variant spreads across the country, showing how contagious the new strain may be. <snip> Or possibly that they're just testing more? I obviously don't know, but that must be considered as a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenterry Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 48 minutes ago, Luton said: I think you may be merely churning out what you have heard from propaganda and 'control' sources who are driving a much bigger damaging agenda. Many well-respected professional medical people and scientists are now saying the vaxx are causing immune system breakdown (too many of them to quote here but you can research). It's your natural immune system and supporting that with already existing medicines (see Zelenko protocol...that's one example) that's truly beneficial whether you are not vaxxed, like me, or had Covid early on, like I did and recovered. Non vaxxed and no infection (that they know of) can similarly spruce up their protection by supporting their natural immune system with the medicines Big Pharma wants eradicated otherwise their profits would dwindle! Let's wake up from the lies and the abuse! You haven't read my post properly. Read it slowly and carefully, because I had Covid and recovered from it, being otherwise healthy, and I regard my natural immune system to be as good as any vaxxes to date. Which will keep me in good stead.. However, I do regard those who have NOT been infected AND NOT vaxxed to be at greater risk of serious illness, especially if their health is poor with other medical issues. It would be a stop gap until an immune vaccine is developed - if ever that's going to happen. Probably depends on how many people would die globally to make the BIg Pharma development cost worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no, unless also vaccinated, you are wide open to getting Covid again. And potentially infecting others. An immune vaccination may never be developed. Kinda like the flu. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it will be found in a foreigner, with the odds on favorite being Burmese or Laotian (long shot: Botswana). And may not be found until after 1 January.

Not to mention that site is a bit dodgy. https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/daily-mirror/ These media sources have a slight to moderate liberal bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appeals to emotion or stereotypes) to favor liberal causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources. Overall, we rate The Daily Mirror Left-Center Biased based on story selection that moderately favors the Left and Mixed for factual reporting due to poor sourcing and several failed fact checks. Agree with you. I like the last bullet point... @Jeffr2 be so kind as to remember my "consider the source" argument / debate of a day or so ago. ???? To regard The Daily Mirror as anything more than "a political comic with an adjustable agenda", is naïve indeed...with the greatest respect of course, old chap!

In my country, about 10% of the people 18 years and older are not vaccinated, so it’s a relatively small group. Yet the vast majority (about 75%) of the patients in IC’s are not vaccinated. I’d say that is some pretty compelling evidence that the vaccines work. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toany Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 9 hours ago, stephenterry said: And so can those people who are fully vaxxed. About time people understood the Vaxxes protect most people against serious infection without the need for hospital treatment. And that applies to those who have been infected and recovered. If they are otherwise healthy they have as much immunity as those who are Vaxxed. It's those who are not vaxxed and have not been infected who are at risk.

If I had to take a vaccine now, I'd personally take one with a mix of Sinovac and another one, probably Astra. That might be who really knows?

it is what it is Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 vaccination urged? encouraging people to get vaccinated assumes there is more supply than demand? is the vaccine programmme now so advanced that most of the population is now double vaccinated? and they are in effect sweeping up those that have been missed in the initial vaccine programme? if so this is excellent news. how well is the booster programme going?

In South Africa, yes. But symptoms could be different in other countries, e.g. the UK, where the average population age is different (older), more people are double-vaccinated (ca. 60% vs. only about 30% in South Africa), etc. There have been a few reports of critical cases due to Omicron, but with less than 1,000 total Omicron cases found worldwide, it is still too early to say...
