No evidence of vaccine failure against severe disease except:
Average vaccinated patients in hospital in 4 months pre-omicron = 74 (29% of total)
Vaccinated patients in hospital today = 2,286 (70% of total, 31 times 4-month average)
Average vaccinated patients in ICU in 4 months pre-omicron = 20 (21% of total)
Vaccinated patients in ICU today = 252 (55% of total, 12.6 times 4-month average)
In UK, 2-shot vaccine efficacy against hospitalization dropped from 95% to roughly 50% (instead of a 20:1 ratio of hospitalizations per capita, the ratio is now 2:1, a 10-fold reduction in efficiency).
Yeah, get a booster or get vaccinated if you were previously relying on 'natural immunity.' I've been saying this for months.
Efficacy estimated at 85-95% post boost in the UK. Exactly in line with my statements.
Where, exactly, is 'vaccine failure.'
