Official: Nearly all Alabama COVID deaths among unvaccinated

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Since the pandemic began, just 26 of the 11,600 people in Alabama who have died of COVID-19 were fully vaccinated, State Health Officer Scott Harris said Friday.

And most of the nearly 2,000 COVID-19 patients currently in state hospitals are also unvaccinated, he said.

Harris released the numbers as the state tries to boost lagging vaccination rates. Health officials say recent cases resulting in severe illness and death could have largely been prevented if people had gotten inoculated.

On the chat site for medical professionals, this explanation was posted by someone with the screenname Ron Reynolds:
30-45 days ago, the CDC changed their requirements for hospitals and clinics on how to count a COVID case. Now, if a patient is admitted with a COVID diagnosis but has previously been vaccinated, the hospital/clinic does not have to register that person as a COVID case which means [they] do not get counted in the pool of people that are vaccinated.

This makes it appear on the outside like hospitals are filling up with un-vaccinated COVID cases. See the deceit and illusion?

"since the pandemic began..."

They are comparing deaths for the short period since he shots were begun with the much longer period since "the pandemic began." Since all the deaths, including those mis identified heart attacks and auto accidents before the shots became available were necessarily of people who were "unvaccinated" the comparison is meaningless. The ratio declines as more and more people risk the shots.

Recent cases of death could have been largely and much more safely prevented with the Ivermectin treatment or the Hydrochloroquine-Z-Pack treatment. A life preserved by a remedy that does not add a lot to the Pharmaceutical Industry bottom line is a life not worth living.

Today’s news is that the controlled study with a placebo group and a vaccinated group was aborted by terminating the placebo group so they could all get the CCP shots and, incidentally, hide any possible unwanted results.

Most of the deaths since the original Chinese biological attack have been, indeed, among the “unvaccinated.” Deaths since the shots began have been steadily rising among the “vaccinated” as their numbers rise and falling among the unvaxxed as the virus loses potency. In Israel almost ALL of the numerous recent CCPcovid deaths have been among the “vaccinated.’ That is public information.

"Same thing."

So if only 1% of the country is eligible for vaccination and 99% of that 1% get vaccinated, that's the "same thing" as 99% of the country being vaccinated? You are not arguing in good faith.

"That will make it 80% are vaccinated and still got infected."

Sure, when most of the country is vaccinated, most of the infections are going to be too.

"For a tiny entity like Gibraltar, with a tiny population, going for months without anyone dying is not exactly new, let alone having one person die from covid."

Except that Gibraltar had lots dying before the vaccines and almost no one dying after. Compare and contrast to Brazil, where President Bolsonaro told everyone to ignore COVID-19 and if you get sick, use HCQ or Ivermectin and you'll be all better. Let's see how that advice has worked out, shall we?

Ouch. Non-stop deaths.

Maybe Brazil should give the American vaccines a try.

Be good enough to show me anywhere on this planet where 1% of the population is “eligible” for covid vaccination, whatever the heck that means.
I'll stretch that even further, show me a country, state, county etc where only 50% are eligible for vaccination let alone 1%.

Why is there a skyrocketing of infections AFTER almost everyone had been vaccinated?

Except that Gibraltar had lots dying before the vaccines and almost no one dying after

Where is your graph for Gibraltar?
And again, why the heck are cases skyrocketing in Gibraltar AFTER everyone has had the covid jab?

Only to a liberal idiot can they believe that a vaccine doesn’t stop a virus and that a person can still get sick, just not as bad.

I mean, when was the last time one of these liberal idiots got Polio but just not as bad a “normal” Polio?

There isn't.

Despite your fearmongering about some massive spike in cases, (and remind me again, when did we shift the focus to cases rather than hospitalizations and deaths? Because I remember all last year nobody at FR cared about cases and using case numbers was a scare tactic dreamed up by liberals and the media), the reality is that there was a small increase, it quickly peaked, and it's come right back down again. See for yourself:

That little blip? Big whoop.

"Where is your graph for Gibraltar?"

Well the one for your vaunted cases is above, and here's the one showing that although many died in their first brush with COVID-19, only one has since the American vaccines were widely deployed:

But hey, tell me more about all those terrible cases that aren't resulting in many hospitalizations or virtually any deaths whatsoever. Tell me more about the people having mild or asymptomatic cases and how terrible it is. I love hearing the MSM's fearmongering coming out of the mouths of anti-vaxxers basically word for word.

There is. All over the world. Plus skyrocketing post covid vaccine deaths too.:

All of which are skyrocketing amongst the vaccinated across countries. We are not shifting focus a anywhere cause by whatever measure you use, the covid vaccines loses.
The covid vaccine is an all inclusive, cross country disease carrier/killer.

I don't need to. I already gave you the link. Its chock full of plenty of examples of the terrible effects of this NON FDA approved covid vaccine.

I mean, you can say the cases are skyrocketing. You can say there’s 10 million cases in Gibraltar. You can say everyone on Earth has died from vaccines.

None of it is true, and clearly it isn’t, but you can certainly say it.

And while you are about it, watch “The Swine Flu Fraud of 1976” from “60 Minutes” from back in the day when the media actually challenged dangerous vaccine nonsense from the government bureaucrats.
It's only 16 minutes long.

Anyone got good links for these? Its amazingly shocking how some people can be so obtuse to just say “its all a lie” without doing their homework.

These people are about as anti-freeper as we get. I think the moderators should silence any anti-vax opinion spreading person who doesn’t acknowledge the states’ data in their posts. A true lover of freedom isn’t going to ignore facts.

Let’s all stay safe so we can make America be a free country again.

If you use the right time scale. The virus has jumped the vaccine just like experts said it would. I’m tired of filing reports of cases and having to say yes they were vaccinated.

You people picked this solution and we are all going to have to pay for it. Dumb.
