Actually the term “vaccinated” has gone through a gender change where it no longer resembles what Sabin and Salk would call a vaccine.
Mark it down! Words matter. Definitions matter.
“The important numbers are the rates of covid cases between vaccinated and unvaccinated.”
____________________________________
The definition of unvaccinated is no longer clear. Some are saying one shot is not enough.... unless you have all the shots you are considered unvaccinated.
The important numbers are the rates of covid cases between vaccinated and unvaccinated. Does anyone have those numbers? The has to be some split between vaccinated and unvaccinated.
As others have pointed out....they muddied the clear definition of those ‘important numbers’ by counting/not counting partially ‘vax’d, ‘vax’d wishin 14 days, etc.
Besides....isn’t the fact that, with more than 80% of Britons over 16 are now fully ‘vax’d.....Britain is in FAR WORSE shape than it was at this time last year, when no one was vaccinated??
And, that it is now averaging about 140 deaths/day, TEN TIMES as many as this time, last year...not enough GOOD/IMPORTANT info for you???
I disagree with what you wrote.
You wrote” The important numbers are the rates of covid cases between vaccinated and unvaccinated.” Since most cases are not serious, those are not the important numbers.
Instead, the important numbers are the rates of covid SEVERE CASES and DEATHS between vaccinated and unvaccinated.
Based on data from this summer in Massachusetts, there is no difference in the number of cases between vaccinated and unvaccinated. But the rate of death is about 80% less for those who have been vaccinated.
As a note of caution, that data may possibly be skewed and misleading because of demographic, age, lifestyle, and co-morbidity differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated.
