Popular Post pedro01 Posted February 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2022 A booster a year is what the CEO of Pfizer was advocating. I had 2 AZ, number 2 was December. I have COVID right now. The Thai govt sent this care package which is nice. Im not having another vaccine/booster. Its not working, just like the lockdowns. Theraputics are what we need now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had 3 jabs. Agreed. Vaccinated or not, you can still catch/spread it. Too many busybodies with nothing better to do. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If un vaccinated people become infected the chances they are getting severely ill and need to be treated in a hospital are much greater then vaccinated people. Are you with me so far? Too many severe cases can clog up the medical system,this can effect al of us. They had field hospitals where all the Covid patients went going to go to . Remember the huge field hospitals they built awaiting the thousands of expected Covid patients............................which all closed down soon after ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still over 50,000 a WEEK dying in some countries, much more than the common cold or annual influensa ever killed per year in most country (US had 60,000 total influenza deaths in 2018) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does make sense if you look at the explanation,non-severe cases were placed in field hospitals. Cases that needed oxygen needed to be in an ICU unit,in a hospital. I was talking about pictures taken in Bangkok of actual Covid Patients last year. Easy to find on the internet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall a news report from Chiang Mai last year , headline being "CM hospitals full because of Covid patients " Reading the report you would think that every hospital in CM was full of covid patients , the reality was that only two of CM's hospitals were accepting Covid ICU patients and the number was in the tens/dozens . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Vaccinated or not,you can still catch/spread it.You are totally right 100% However chances of getting it and spreading it are much smaller and chances of getting severely ill are very much smaller. I hope you will recover soon and don't suffer any long lasting effects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you could stay in the hotel? My AQH hotel had a lower rate for an extended stay. Stay until you test negative, then go. Lot cheaper than a private hospital. You have been tested Positive for the Virus.............They don't want you infecting everyone else in the hotel, plain and simple.................I don't necessarily agree with it, but it;s their country, their rules (Okay, here come's the opposition, grab your popcorn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThLT Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 According to a study published in The Lancet, one of the most respected scientific journals in the world, vaccines are only around 13% more protective against infection/transmission: Quote The SARs in household contacts exposed to the delta variant was 25% in vaccinated and 38% in unvaccinated contacts. These results underpin the key message that vaccinated contacts are better protected than the unvaccinated. What is the vaccine effect on reducing transmission in the context of the SARS-CoV-2 delta variant? - The Lancet Infectious Diseases So whether you are anti or pro-vaccine, this whole charade/witch hunt is entirely based on emotion, rather than rational thought and scientific fact. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually this small study shows the unvaccinated to be one and a half times more likely to contract Covid than the vaccinated.

Popular Post heybruce Posted February 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2022 1 hour ago, Liverpool Lou said: Can anyone please explain why vaccinated people, i.e. those who instigate OPs such as this, are concerned about those who exercise their right to not be vaccinated? How can it possibly affect them? I'm vaccinated and boostered, I don't give a toss if the person next to me is unvaccinated, that's their concern, not mine, in fact, how would I ever know who else is vaccinated? Happy to explain. Being vaccinated lowers your chance of infection and greatly lowers the risk of serious illness and death. The greater the proportion of vaccinated people in a population the slower the rate of virus propagation, the less stress on the medical system, and the less opportunity the virus has to mutate into something more dangerous. Having a large portion of the population vaccinated also lowers the risk to people who have medical conditions that preclude vaccination. The greater the proportion of unvaccinated people in a population the faster the rate of virus propagation, the greater the stress on the medical system (often leading to other medical problems being neglected) and the greater the risk of a dangerous mutation of the virus arising. It also presents a greater risk to people who are old or have conditions making them more susceptible to serious illness once infected, regardless of their vaccination status. Does this explanation help you understand why vaccination is not only good for the individual but for society at large as well? 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why Covid death rates are going up and many hospitals around the world are being overwhelmed again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
