The real efficacy rates of the COVID vaccines
American Thinker ^ | 12/30/2021 | Andy Zhao

Posted on 12/30/2021 8:44:02 AM PST by SeekAndFind

The Biden administration and the mainstream media have been pushing a mandate of the experimental COVID vaccines for the American people.  Their talking point is that "COVID vaccines are effective and work against the pandemic."  That's not true.  I have been following the "U.K. vaccine surveillance report" since last September and have seen enough evidence about the real efficacy of the COVID vaccines to show that they're not as good as advertised. 

My last essay revealed that more vaccinated people have been using the health care system in U.K. than unvaccinated people.  Now I am going to talk about how the MSM and politicians use so-called "rates" to hide the truth and to misrepresent the actual data to further their narratives.

Here is an example of the "unadjusted rates" chart in the U.K. Vaccine Surveillance report, Week 51

  

The chart is very easy to read.  It shows the rate in each category of events, "COVID-19 cases by vaccination status," "COVID-19 cases presenting to emergency care (within 28 days of a positive specimen) resulting in an overnight inpatient admission by vaccination status," and "COVID-19 deaths (a) within 28 days and (b) within 60 days of positive specimen or with COVID-19 reported on death certificate."  Instead of showing actual numbers, which are the "raw data," it calculated the unadjusted rate per 100,000 people in the population, based on the vaccination status.  All the rates in each category except the cases show that the vaccinated people are doing better than unvaccinated people.

On the surface, it appears that using that unadjusted rate per 100,000 people seems fair because it compares vaccinated and unvaccinated from the same base number.  But that's a deception.

“Let me know when you find the FDA approved vax.”

The FDA fully approved the Pfizer vaccine, 23 August 2021. Here is the press release: https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-approves-first-covid-19-vaccine

Google it. Join the real world.

Wow, you antivaxx jihadists are going far afield. Now you’re using Chinese “students” to advance your narrative. Interestingly enough, Mr Zhao got his undergraduate education at the University of Wuhan. You can’t make this stuff up. Maybe the Chinese influence is redirecting the jihad to also be anti-Trump?

OK, the author got his bachelor’s degree in LIBRARY SCIENCE in the University of Wuhan, but received his Master’s in the School of Computing and Information at the University of Pittsburgh and is pursuing his PhD in the Department of Information Science at Cornell University.

Brother we see the real world. Unfortunately BuBo is getting his fully approved vaccine with normal financial risk to the manufacturer. The knee pads, such as BuBo will never wake up. I just cannot understand why people have eyes but cannot see, have ears but cannot heat, have brains but cannot reason. I went off a couple of nights ago and expected to be banned. So I’m just going to use knee padders as my response. They are either bowing to fear, their own insanity, or a complete lack of critical thinking. To get on here and tell us all it’s an approved vax is the Everest of lies that they cannot climb or even comprehend. I’m so very tired of them bending the knee and trying to convince us to do so as well.

I say never until the truth is proclaimed, many are jailed, the worm has turned. Brother please be safe. I do not think we can convince the fools who want to be fools. I will not bother trying. I hope I don’t get to the point of wishing harm on them but it is a battle in my heart and soul to not wish I’ll on the enemy (fool or not).

God bless and pray I may have a better attitude.

Thank you and well said! Agree 100% with your view of things.

They come across as willfully ignorant and intellectually dishonest. Probably because they are emotionally invested?

The sad part is this is not a game, they think they are winning.

God wins in the end. Will pray for you and me.
