Israel says Pfizer Covid vaccine is just 39% effective as delta spreads, but still prevents severe illness
CNBC ^ | 7/23/21

Pfizer and BioNTech’s Covid-19 vaccine is just 39% effective in Israel where the delta variant is the dominant strain, but still provides strong protection against severe illness and hospitalization, according to a new report from the country’s Health Ministry.

The efficacy figure, which is based on an unspecified number of people between June 20 and July 17, is down from an earlier estimate of 64% two weeks ago and conflicts with data out of the U.K. that found the shot was 88% effective against symptomatic disease caused by the variant.

However, the two-dose vaccine still works very well in preventing people from getting seriously sick, demonstrating 88% effectiveness against hospitalization and 91% effectiveness against severe illness, according to the Israeli data published Thursday.

“We have to be mindful that, with time, the effectiveness of these vaccines may wane,” said Dr. Isaac Bogoch, an infectious disease professor at the University of Toronto.

Words to keep in mind... "still"... "for now"... "rare"... "unexpected"...

90% 80% 70% and now 39%. “Don’t believe everything you read on the internet” quote by Abraham Lincoln.

They have to give SOME reason to people for them to take this clearly useless vax.

Fear porn and new sales techniques for the socially engineered cure. Who pockets the cash? Who ends up a statistic from the lies?

No one is going to prison, no one is even considered for a court case with mandated jabs( cure? phooey!)

Yeah.

What does, “91% effectiveness against severe illness” mean?

That could mean anything, and most likely that “91%” polled best with the focus group.

How are they going to come up with percentages, once everyone has been jabbed? The answer is, they aren’t. They aren’t going to be talking about it, because you’ll all be already strapped into the roller-coaster.

"[...] but still provides strong protection against severe illness and hospitalization, according to a new report from the country’s Health Ministry."

Dr. Fauci had indicated that protecting people against severe illness was all that the experimental CV19 “vaccine” was intended to do.

Fauci: vaccine only prevents symptoms, doesn’t block the virus (10.26.20)

Experimental vaccine is helping to "flatten the curve" so that medical services aren't overwhelmed with victims.

Many people, including medical professionals, seem to think that “vaccine” is supposed to stop CV19 like flu vaccine stops flu. (Thank follow the money Big Pharma for the confusion?)

With Feds Help, Moderna Forecasts Record Revenue of $19.2B (7.10.21)

And people who are regularly taking vitamins C and D3 are probably wondering what all the fuss is about. (No lucrative governent contracts with vitamins.)

It isn’t effective at preventing contracting the disease.

It isn’t effective at preventing transmitting the disease.

Is extremely dangerous, and what they are doing is far worse than that.

this is what happened with a similar leaky virus

Grasping at straws. Sounds like the annual flu tirade .... take the shot but if you get the flu it will be a milder case. The only people I know that get the flu are the ones taking the shot. I think the big push to get the “jab” is to force it on people before the side effects and failure to protect raises its ugly head this fall.

The poisons labeled COVID vaccines are incredibly dangerous.

The spike proteins by themselves are deadly and the entire purpose of all of the poisons labeled COVID vaccines is to flood the bodies of those injected with the spike proteins.

I am not sure how dangerous they are, but I certainly would never argue that they are “harmless” especially if they infect brain cells and the immune system has to kill them.

Imagine if this was the effectiveness level for a disease like ... polio.

The “vaccines” are not effective at all at preventing infection. They were never intended to. They induce an immune reaction to the spike protein, not the virus. I wish the f*** people understood this.

The vaccines grant the person vaccinated a copy of synthetic RNA not acquired by infection with the real virus. This granted a key factor. One could reprogram the covid virus to ignore any cell with this synthetic RNA this feature would be in addition to the antibodies already preventing attachment to the ACE2 sites for a double block on replication in the selected persons. Why do this? Simple who are the people that the evil globalists want to eliminate? The complaint worker bees who took their RNA sequence or the dissidents who refuse to take them and vow to fight to the death to not take them? Globalist need worker bees they don’t need dissidents so who do you think Rona 2.0 will target with a vengeance? Yeah if I was going to to design a virus to get rid of my enemies I would first let out version one to spread the fear and need for my vax this would be the loyalty test those who took it are now good little worker bees and thus needed. All the throne In my side dissidents would be the one screaming hell no and version 2.0 would go right after any cell not keyed to loyalist RNA. Really I don’t see why more people don’t see the perfect set up that this way would be. Since the globalist need a large worker bees population to feed off economically and don’t need the much smaller group of dissidents trying to compete economically as free enterprise. The logic is solid.
