Vaccinated people are now a majority of COVID-19 deaths, Washington Post analysis shows
Christian Post ^ | 11/25/2022 | Ian M. Giatti

For the first time, more than half of all Americans who died after contracting COVID-19 were vaccinated at least once, according to data on COVID-19 deaths in August analyzed by The Washington Post.

Of the deaths attributed to coronavirus in August, the Post reported that 58% received either a primary dose or a booster of some type of COVID vaccine.

The newspaper cited an analysis of data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducted by Cynthia Cox, vice president of the Kaiser Health Foundation.

Calling it a "continuation of a troubling trend" over the past year as vaccination rates increased and new variants emerged, the Post's McKenzie Beard pointed to previous analysis that found an apparent correlation between rising vaccination rates and deaths of vaccinated people.

While the vaccinated made up just under a quarter (23%) of all coronavirus-linked deaths in September 2021, that number soared to 42% in January and February of this year.

"We can no longer say this is a pandemic of the unvaccinated," said Cox, who conducted the analysis for the Post's health section, The Health 202.

Cox's quote referred to a statement by CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky in July 2021 declaring COVID-19 a "pandemic of the unvaccinated." That sentiment was echoed a few months later by President Joe Biden.

Beard warned that data from the CDC "underscores the protection that additional booster shots offer against severe illness and death as immunity wanes," pointing to deaths from August, after the rise of the BA.5 omicron subvariant in July.

That's when, according to the CDC, those who did not get vaccinated over the age of 5 faced a much higher risk of dying "from a coronavirus infection."

"It's still true that vaccinated groups are at a lower risk of dying from a [COVID-19] infection than the unvaccinated when the data is adjusted for age," she wrote.

The analysis also found those 50 and older who were unvaccinated were as much as 12 times more likely to die from the virus than adults who received two or more boosters.

When sorted by vaccination status and age group, the data indicated that even at the peak in August, the death rate among the vaccinated without the updated booster was slightly lower than the unvaccinated in the 18-29 age range (.02 compared with .05). Meanwhile, deaths for all groups up to the age of 17 were not shown "due to low numbers," the CDC said on its website.

According to the Post's analysis, the age demographic most at risk of dying with a COVID-19 infection was also more likely to have taken the vaccine, such as the elderly.

The analysis comes just one day after Dr. Anthony Fauci stepped down as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Fauci used his final White House press briefing to call on all Americans to get the latest booster shot "for your own safety."

"The final message I give you from this podium is that please, for your own safety, for that of your family, get your updated COVID-19 shot as soon as you're eligible," he said.

Fauci, who was at one point the highest-paid employee in the federal government, was a key figure in touting the accelerated rollout of the coronavirus vaccine and urged all Americans, even those who were hesitant due to safety and other concerns, to get vaccinated.

During a virtual event in November 2020, Fauci addressed concerns with members of a Presbyterian church in Massachusetts and defended the vaccine development process as "independent of the federal government and independent of people who might have a vested interest, like the pharmaceutical company."

"The determination as to whether or not it is safe and effective is made by an independent body, what's called a data and safety monitoring board, which monitor the trial," he told the audience.

"When you reach a point when there's information to indicate that it is truly safe and effective, they are the only ones that initially have access to that. So the company or the government can't try and manipulate it to its own advantage."

Fauci also addressed concerns some have that the vaccinesdeveloped by entities like Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech were too quickly created to be truly effective.

"The speed with which it's been done does not compromise safety nor does it compromise scientific integrity. It is the exquisite nature of the breathtaking scientific advances that have occurred over the last decade or so that have allowed us to do things in weeks to months that formerly took years," he said.

"And note that we're not even allowed to apply for use of it until 60 days passed the time that half the people got their last dose. So we know that safety is paramount."

Fauci implored groups disproportionately affected by the pandemic, such as minority communities and the elderly, to get a vaccine when it becomes available to create "a blanket of protection over the entire community."

Sounds like moon-bat guano to me. By the end of the summer in 2021 well over 90% of people over 70 were jabbed. The average age of death from covid is around 80 years old.

I guess for the last year the virus found and killed unvaccinated elderly living in the sticks somewhere.

Unless something has now become too hard to cover up.

The article doesn’t even mention the age of death of those who were not vaccinated versus those who were. It also doesn’t mention the comorbidities of the populations in question.

That’s only because pretty much everybody on the planet has already had it, and only the vaccinated have a compromised immunity and repeatedly contract it

safe AND effective

For 2021 and 2021, the VAXXXXXXination years, the EXCESS DEATH tolls have been about the same. If the vaxxxxxxxines were safe AND effective, then excess deaths should be trending towards ZERO, but they are not.

There are several debates going on about the causes of the excess deaths. One of the best candidates is the VAXXXXXXines. If the vaxxxxxxines are the most signicant cause of the EXCESS DEATHS, then there have been OVER ONE MILLION PEOPLE KILLED BY THE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE!

ANd from 2021 to 2022, the excess deaths have shifted from the elederly towards the younger groups. WHY MIGHT THAT BE?

The working ages of 25-44 now show the largest increase from 2021 to 2022. Could that have anything to do with the vaxxxxxxine mandates?

In the fall of 2021 Resident Biden and his fascists companies mandeated shots. Watch all of the vaxxxxxxxed younger people die! And Ed Dowd says his insiders say the next quarters EXCESS DEATH NUMBERS WILL CONTINUE TO RISE.

YOU may still disagree that the timelines of increased excess deaths and the unConstitutional shot mandates PROVES the vaxxxxxxines have killed over ONE milllion people in the US, but there is NO DOUBT the information presented is strong enough to STOP any more use of the vaxxxxxxines.

Instead the US gubermint still pushes the deadly shots on the public.

Multiple instances of CORRELATION DOES PROVE CAUSATION!

In Israel, the shots were administered at the beginning of 2021. And more people died in the winter of 2021 than did during the COVID Scamdemick of 2020.

So the Israeli idiots with medical degrees came out with the booster mandate at the end of July 2921. WHAT HAPPENED? More people died!

No matter how hard Fraud Fauci and BIG PHARMA fights it, multiple examples of EXACT correlation PROVE causation! The vaxxxxxines have already killed over one million people and millions more will die in the future.

But that's only because most of the unvaxxed are already dead by now, ri-ight?

Could it be most of the unvaxxed now have natural immunity and the vaxxed do not? Government still seems reluctant to study natural immunity.

Could it also be a large percentage of the unvaccinated are taking vitamins and supplements to boost the bodies defenses plus ivermectin if they contract Covid?

This is hilarious:

An article about the rising percent of people dying of Covid who were vaccinated - and not once does it mention what percent of the overall population is vaccinated.

One would think that would be relevant - to say the least.

**Of the deaths attributed to coronavirus in August, the Post reported that 58% received either a primary dose or a booster of some type of COVID vaccine.**

While the percent death numbers may look higher for the 260 million vaccinated, the 70 million unvacccinated are actually dying at a higher ratio because the pool of unvaccinated is much smaller than the pool of vaccinated. Using 58% v 42% for every 580 deaths of vaccinated, 1,558 unvaccinated die. But it’s actually a much higher death ratio because half or more of the 70 million ‘unvaccinated’ are recovered immunity, making the unvaccinated/noimmunity pool even smaller. So the percentage may fall but that’s not a good thing because it means the ratio of death is climbing.

Not counting recovered immune, given 260 million have been vaccinated and a US pop of 330 million, that leaves 70 million remaining unvaccinated (260+70=330). Using 58% and 42% from the article, if the two groups were equal (both 260 million) 420/70million unvaccinated deaths would translate to 1,558 deaths/260million vs 580 deaths/260million
[260/70=(3.71) x 420 = 1,558/260million].

I did not know covid-19 is still a thing. My wife and I both almost 69, have not been backed nor have we ever been tested. We also virtually never wore a mask. Our life continues on as though there were no virus.

The only impact this had on our lives was that I got to work from home for over a year before I retired, of wedding a 150 mi round trip daily. So it had a positive influence on us.

Translation: Most who are dying from the Cold-19 are vaxed.
