"Pandemic of the unvaccinated" CONFIRMED

Very clearly a peak or at minimum plateau in the growth, see last 2 weeks:

Another masterpiece. That's what happens when you put politics over common sense. Tragic, but it's just Darwinism at work.

Just another made up useless chart from a useless source.

Poll showing unvaxxed Americans don't trust the government which isn't a surprise, but the quantified change over the past year is dramatic.

Unvaccinated Americans' already low trust in the federal government plummeted over the course of 2021, exacerbating the challenges in getting the pandemic under control, according to a year's worth of data from the Axios-Ipsos Coronavirus Index.

Why it matters: The implications extend beyond shots and boosters. Unvaccinated Americans in our surveys were far less likely to limit their social interactions or to wear masks outside the home, which correlated significantly with their reported rates of COVID-19 infection.

Blaming those dumb unvaxxed for why the pandemic still "rages" after nearly 2 years of lockdowns, masks, vaccines, boosters, social distancing.

1. Got to keep this thing going;

2. Don't want people to see all the sacrifices they have made did not pay off.

Notice how they completely ignore the giant blue spike at the beginning of the pandemic where Democrats either died or attained natural immunity?

December 22nd 7-day moving average - 91,258 cases.

Now between Christmas and New Years there will be a small decline, not necessarily because cases are going down, but because the processing of cases will go down as lab workers take the holidays off. In fact, that may already be occurring. If the case growth curve follows last year's growth curve (as it has been doing, only much steeper), cases will peak out in mid-January. Have a happy holiday.

Top 5 Omicron symptoms:

runny nose

headache

fatigue

sneezing

sore throat

Take 2 aspirin, drink plenty of fluids, chicken soup, ignore fear mongers Biden, Fraud-ci and the dead gorilla.

I putting off hiking until it warms up so I checked the NYC Omicron outbreak. Here is what I found.

The CDC covid tracker shows new cases in the past three days totaled 67k. That's about the same number as from Nov 25 to December 19. In other words, it's WAY, WAY up! The NYCdotGov website shows 82% of adults partially and 91% fully vaccinated in NYC.

Is there a way to monitor vaxxed vs unvaxxed cases on a daily basis in NYC?

This is worth a laugh...

As Omicron heats up in my home state, my vaccinated friends are asking me (unvaccinated) what they can do to avoid getting covid!

The irony isn't lost on me.

Still, I share what I've learned about possible preventives and therapeutics. When there are nearly zero downsides and lots of possible upsides, why not add a few supplements to your daily routine?

I guess we will see. Lots of people predicted insane case counts for Gauteng as well and then it just... stopped.

Dying of COVID pre- vs. post-vaccines is a rather significant difference to most of us.

The growth rate of cases in the UK, and especially London is no longer the insane exponential it was even a week ago. This closely matches the SA data which is not really garbage. There are some very weird viral dynamics going on.

Trying to correlate mild cases -> severe cases doesn't really make sense for a variant that we are pretty sure displays markedly different infection patterns. There will certainly be some vaxxed and prior-infected people who end up in the hospitals, but all evidence shows that protection against severe disease should remain very strong, especially if hybrid or boosted. This can be true even if protection against infection alone is significantly weakened against Omicron (e.g. antibodies vs. T-cells).

I remain quite optimistic but, as usual, it's going to be the low vax, low NPI compliance places that suffer the most.

Recent emails obtained by the American Institute for Economic Research show that Anthony Fauci, MD, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and Francis Collins, MD, former director of the National Institutes of Health, quashed dissenting views from top scientists about pandemic measures, according to an opinion piece in The Wall Street Journal Dec. 21.

The emails were in response to "The Great Barrington Declaration," a statement against lockdown measures, favoring instead focused measures that would prioritize the medically vulnerable and high-risk population. The declaration was signed by thousands of scientists, including a Nobel Prize winner.

In an email to Dr. Fauci, Dr. Collins said of the "Barrington Declaration," "There needs to be a quick and devastating published take-down of its premises."

Dr. Collins then spoke to The Washington Post, calling the declaration "a fringe component of epidemiology. This is not mainstream science. It's dangerous."

The Journal article argues that Dr. Fauci then angled himself as a representative of science itself, not allowing discourse or dissenting opinions, which were all too important to pandemic policy.

"Rather than try to manipulate public opinion, the job of health officials is to offer their best scientific advice. They shouldn't act like politicians or censors, and when they do, they squander the public's trust," write the editors of the Journal's opinion page.

I caught a cold this past Wednesday: had all the above symptoms. It may have been Omicron, who cares? I'm 100% recovered as of today and even got a good gym workout yesterday. My NATURAL immune system is working fine.

Happily unvaxxed.

F**k Fraud-ci.

Neat trick! How'd they pull that off?

Pandemic of the vaccinated

The UK Health Security Agency said those who had received three doses of Pfizer’s vaccine saw their protection against symptomatic illness caused by the variant drop from 70 percent to 45 percent within 10 weeks, according to a report released Thursday.
