MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, Ohio — Brendon Hrepic says he is still shocked that COVID-19 caught up with him when WEWS spoke with him via Zoom from his hospital bed.

“The doctor that I saw at the ER was like ‘you are literally the worse case that I’ve ever seen post-vaccination,’” said Hrepic.

The 31-year-old essential worker from Mayfield Heights said he did everything right throughout the pandemic, from social distancing to masking up.

Yes, we are all gonna die. IMO, my time comes when it comes and no virus, no person, nor anything else will change when the appointed time for me to leave this physical realm comes to its end.

Mostly, yes. There have been other variants present in Israel, but it’s primarily on the April 2020 variant.

The J&J clinical trial numbers included more of the variants in their data, just because of the timing of when the trials were done. Subsequent testing with Moderna and Pfizer have demonstrated that while their effectiveness drops some with the South Africa and Brazil variants, they remain highly effective. The “boosters” (not really an accurate name since they’re actually a reformulation, similar to how the annual flu shot changes each year) should have a big impact improving efficacy with the new variants.

That belief runs contrary to observed reality in multiple countries; particularly Israel.

Thanks for that personal report, sarge. Survival rate is actually a bit higher, for most....

A hint when posting a graphic: add width=n% to your img statment. For example: width=40%. You are guaranteed the img will take 40% of the screen width no matter the screen resolution.

Thanks for that tip, upchuck!

I do the numbers thing, but your percentage explanation looks like it will work even better.

Time to experiment!

Your statement assumes the fallacy that simply being exposed to the virus means you’ll end up with it. I think even those early days when people were trapped on cruise ships and most were elderly, only a minority of the passengers contracted the virus.

Exactly how and where did you become such an expert? I readily await your unmasking as to how it was you decided to descend upon FR promoting Fauci junk ascribing it to be from President Trump... Tell US from whence you come....

Good luck getting an answer to your question.

I think many others have tried....to no avail.

It’s actually somewhere between 0.65% and 1%, but let’s take your 0.5%. Apply that to 330 million Americans. Get 1,650,000 deaths.

I’m not defending the lockdowns and the mask mandates. I’m 100% against those. The political response was totally botched. I’ve long been in favor of an approach closer to what Sweden did early on where businesses and individuals were told how best to protect people. Businesses were able to operate with some basic changes to reduce the risk of spread and people were able to largely go about their lives with small changes. The only big mistake made by Sweden (and they acknowledge this themselves) was failing to protect elderly long term care facilities.

A reasonable response to this virus was warranted. A total economic shutdown was not a reasonable response. But a response was absolutely needed. President Trump did it right: providing the states with everything they could possibly need to help keep people alive and safe while working on the endgamee against the virus (safe and effective vaccines).

Sadly, I think most people think that it is a cloak of invincibility. They are now immune.

A) I’ve had enough threats of doxxing that I have zero interest in providing any information about myself to help that along. Cancel culture is apparently not exclusive to the left.

B) I provide links to authoritative sources so people can do their own research. I encourage people to fully understand the issues at play before forming a concrete opinion. Listening to others’ opinions is often quite misleading. Facts first; they opinions.

C) President Trump has repeatedly advocated in favor of the vaccines himself. From his announcement of Operation Warp Speed in the Rose Garden of the White House (https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/donald-trump-speech-transcript-on-vaccine-development-for-coronavirus) to his announcement that the Pfizer vaccine had “passed the gold standard of safety testing” following its FDA authorization (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=395994665075868) to his CPAC speech where he told people repeatedly to “get your shot” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFQDBTwh-8k) he has personally vouched for these vaccines and advocated their use.

So your claims that I’m “promoting Fauci junk ascribing it to be from President Trump” are just pure nonsense. I’ve linked to the videos of President Trump himself. Your claims are false. Mine are based in fact. Verifiable, observable fact.

SO the doctor doesn't understand that Pfizer's 95% efficacy rate doesn't mean 5% of the vaccinated will still get Covid-19?

From the article:

Check Your Understanding Of The "Efficacy" Claims For 'Vaccines': The Claim "95% Effective" Means A Fraction Of 1% Of The Vaccinated Are "Protected" For 2 Months

According to Pfizer's 2 month long trial, less than 1% became ill with Covid without a vaccine. and  less than 1% became ill with a vaccine. In both cases his risk was 1%. It's just that Pfizer's unvaccinated rate of infection was .93 and the vaccinated rate was .046% for 2 months. We don't know how many vaccinated people became ill with Covid-19 after 2 months so Pfizer's claim is likely false - the efficacy rate is unlikely to be as high as claimed.

I try to cure millennials of the abomination “verse” as in “It’s the Yankees verse the Red Socks today.” Drives me crazy, but it’s a lost cause. Sorry to say, my son is the worse (heh, heh) offender. I think he says “verse” just to annoy me.
