TallGuyJohninBKK Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 September 28, 2023 Last year, COVID-19 killed 9,859 Australians, behind only heart disease and dementia (including Alzheimer’s) as the leading causes of death in the country. ... "An infectious disease (influenza and pneumonia) was last in the top 5 leading causes of death in 1970," the Australian Bureau of Statistics said in the press release. "Deaths due to COVID-19 were a significant contributor to the increase, causing just under 10,000 deaths and mentioned as a contributing factor on a further 2,782 death certificates." (more) https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/covid-19-third-leading-cause-death-australia-2022 "This is the first time in over 50 years that an infectious disease has been in the top 5 leading causes of death in Australia. In 1968 and 1970, influenza and pneumonia was the fifth leading cause of death. The rate of death from COVID-19 has increased by 23.7 deaths per 100,000 since 2021 and 24.5 since 2020. In these years it was the 33rd and 38th leading cause of death. https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/health/causes-death/causes-death-australia/2022 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Australia give out bonuses to hospitals for putting Covid on the death certificate, like the USA did? Interesting that the odds of dying were virtually nil (< 1/10,000) if you were under 59 years old. Gonna be tough to get the school kids to mask up again if round 2 comes around. I'm also interested (like rattlesnake) how the fatality rates stacked up between the vaxxed and the unvaxxed. But I'm only seeing some Euro countries going back and looking at the data. 2 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe that issue was addressed in the Australia report above... But it has been very well addressed by the U.S. CDC for American COVID fatalities age 50 and above that show the unvaccinated (dark green line below), who have the highest fatality rate, and much higher than all the vaccinated groups, with the lowest fatality rate belonging to those who had had 4 or more shots (red line below). The CDC link below includes an Excel file with the actual weekly COVID mortality rates per 100,000 population details for the chart above, including the the final week in the series being Sept. 3, 2022: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/science/data-review/vaccines.html And broken down by different age groups: "In August 2022, the risk of dying from COVID-19 among unvaccinated adults compared with adults who received a primary series was 9 times higher for adults aged 65–79 years and 4 times higher for adults aged ≥80 years. A similar pattern was observed among younger adult age groups in August 2022. Compared with adults who received a primary series in the same age group, the risk of dying from COVID-19 among unvaccinated adults was 3 times higher for adults aged 18–29 years, 5 times higher for adults aged 30–49 years, and 6 times higher for adults aged 50–64 years."

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted September 29, 2023 Author Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) PS - of course it's meaningless to talk about the raw vaccination status of COVID fatalities at large, vaxed vs. unvaxed, -- something anti-vaxers love to do -- when the vast majority of the population has already been vaccinated at varying levels, and the entirely unvaccinated population is a much smaller relative group in terms of numbers. Meaning comparing the two groups in terms of raw numbers of fatalities is apples and oranges. What is meaningful, which is what the CDC has done above, is to compare the fatality RATES among the different groups -- what share of the vaccinated are dying of COVID, what share of the unvaccinated are dying of COVID, etc etc... And in those regards, the outcomes and answers are very clear -- vaccination saves lives and reduces COVID fatalities.

As you say, it is totally irrelevant and wrong to claim (as has been repeated ad nauseam on this forum) that the unvaccinated are flooding the hospitals.

Popular Post owl sees all Posted September 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2023 41 minutes ago, Red Phoenix said: Reactions reported for adverse events following immunisation for all vaccines in 2021. It's the word 'immunisation' that I reckon is misleading here. Not that the whole idea is correct. I have yet to find 'anything' that gives a human an 'immune' response. This word gives the impression that the body 'learns' from substances put into it. I don't agree. I would say that the body has a defence system, that acts swiftly, when toxins are introduced. Especially unnaturally. It neutralises, isolates, eliminates and eradicates toxins. It does this to all unnatural. medicines including vaxx injections; if it can. Sometimes the effects, of the toxins, so overwhelm the body that it succumbs. What happens also, is that the body isolates the toxin, only for it to break free some time later. The age group 21 to 33 have an advantage here, as it is thought that the body's defence mechanisms are are their strongest. The very young, and the old, are most at risk. And any body that already has a problem (underlying condition) is also high risk from these toxins. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted September 30, 2023 Author Share Posted September 30, 2023 Also worth noting, the Australian government's Therapeutic Goods Administration recently shared a statement from its international member group, the International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA), on the safety of COVID vaccines and misleading efforts to malign their safety: https://www.tga.gov.au/news/media-releases/icmra-statement-safety-covid-19-vaccines The statement included the following highlights: "COVID-19 vaccines significantly reduce the risk of severe disease, hospitalisation and death from infection with SARS-CoV-2. ... "False and misleading information about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines on social media often exaggerates the frequency and severity of side effects. Misinformation also wrongly attributes unrelated medical events to the vaccines. Vaccine misinformation leading individuals to decline vaccination has very likely led to many more deaths than adverse effects of the vaccines."

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted September 30, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2023 (edited) You're continuing to try to beat a dead horse of misinformation: As the Western Australia report cited above notes: Important considerations when interpreting the AEFI summary data "The reported symptoms, signs and diagnoses in each adverse event were temporally associated with vaccination but are not necessarily causally associated with one or more of the vaccines administered." And from the ICMRA statement on COVID vaccines shared by the Australian government: "As for all medicines, reports of medical events after COVID-19 vaccination (suspected side effects) are collected and continuously evaluated by the authorities. These evaluations show that in most cases the medical events were not caused by the vaccine." ... Vaccine misinformation leading individuals to decline vaccination has very likely led to many more deaths than adverse effects of the vaccines." https://www.tga.gov.au/news/media-releases/icmra-statement-safety-covid-19-vaccines Edited September 30, 2023 by TallGuyJohninBKK 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted October 1, 2023 Author Share Posted October 1, 2023 Interesting to see how Australia's original COVID "lockdown" restrictions kept the country's COVID death toll relatively low, until those restrictions were lifted, and then the COVID death toll skyrocketed: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-09-27/abs-deaths-in-graphs-covid-heart-disease-suicide/102907992 "COVID deaths have grown significantly since the disease first hit Australian shores. Lockdowns kept Australia's COVID death toll low when compared globally, but from 2022 when borders were opened and the nation returned to business as usual, that number skyrocketed." Seems like the government's original policies worked at preventing needless deaths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eleftheros Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 And so, a mere trickle of people are still being assessed of dying of Covid. Perhaps the Australian government would be better off asking why the overall excess mortality rate in the country stands at 13% in 2023, which translates to 10,289 extra deaths which are not accounted for in the first 8 months of the year. Excess mortality rates have been way above the baseline since Jan. 2022, only a minor share of which can be linked to Covid (under 3% in 2023), but State and Federal governments alike seem not to care about this. Such is the nature of government these days, it seems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
