Background: During Late 2022, the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.5 sublineages accounted for most of the sequenced viral genomes worldwide. Bivalent mRNA vaccines contain an ancestral SARS-CoV-2 strain component plus an updated component of the Omicron BA.4/BA.5. Since September 2022, a single bivalent booster dose has been recommended for adults who have completed a primary vaccination series and are at high risk for severe Covid-19 disease. Evidence regarding the effectiveness of the bivalent vaccine in reducing hospitalizations and death due to Covid-19 is warranted.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included all members of Clalit Health Services, aged ≥65, eligible for a bivalent booster. Hospitalizations and death due to Covid-19 among participants who received the bivalent vaccine were compared with those who did not. A Cox proportional-hazards regression model with time-dependent covariates was used to estimate the association between the bivalent vaccine and Covid-19 outcomes while adjusting for demographic factors and coexisting illnesses.
Findings: A total of 622,701 participants met the eligibility criteria. Of those, 85,314 (14%) received a bivalent-booster during the 70-day study period. Hospitalization due to Covid-19 occurred in 6 bivalent recipients and 297 participants who did not, adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 0.19 (95% CI, 0.08-0.43). Death due to Covid-19 occurred in 1 bivalent recipient and 73 participants who did not, adjusted HR 0.14: (95% CI, 0.02-1.04).
Interpretation: Participants who received the bivalent vaccine had lower hospitalization and mortality rates due to Covid-19 than non-recipients up to 70 days after vaccination.
Sure you're not. Your statements get less believable the further this drags on.
It is what it is, and if the authors' peers want to find fault with it, fine.
Author's peers? Did you post it for their review? Or for ours?
it wasn't the study I was commenting on - it was your hobby horse issue of risk from repeated shots.
I don't believe you ever commented on the danger of potentially repeated shots, nor did the study address it. Which is why I kept asking.
You throw out an issue
I didn't throw anything out, I only asked some very basic questions about the article you posted for analysis. Or was it meant to be propaganda, that clearly fell flat?
falsely pretend I'm attempting to be some sort of authority
You're the one that hid behind your assertion as only being personal, when you knew it couldn't be supported by evidence.
Grow up and debate honestly.
You've been unable to answer a single question I've posed, despite them being basic.
Do you take both?
China had a protest problem. Now they got a covid problem. I wonder how many protesters have come down with “covid” now.
This new Bivalent 'vaccine' is bad news. Already 120 reports of death to CDC after 'vaccination'. Products used to be pulled under 50 deaths so that the reasons for the reported deaths could be determined (safety). This Bivalent 'vaccine' is new and, although fewer people are getting vaxxed, STILL there's 'coincidentally' 121 reports the CDC published of people dying after vaccination with it and no one is pausing administration to study WHY they died.
The information is from the CDC's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). Not all vaccines in VAERS received reports of death in the 32 years it's been in operation, but out of the 91 vaccines which did, the Bivalent Covid 'vaccines' are already 30th highest reports of death reported.

The FDA let Pfizer and others producing the first vax hide the truth about the adverse events experienced after 'vaccination' and has never been held accountable or apologized etc., so why wouldn't they do the same for the Bivalent Covid 'vaccine' which is already obsolete?
Interesting. Do you have any data on the number of deaths actually attributed to the vaccines, not just occurring from any cause sometime after the shot?
The FDA and CDC reviewed every death reported to VAERS and found that only 9 could be attributed to the vaccines.
And all of them were from the J&J version.
The CDC also said Ivermectin didn’t work and that social distancing/masks work, and there’s so much information countering their ‘safe’ and ‘effective’ claims about the Covid ‘vaccine’ they have shot their scientific reputation in the foot.
There are 760 safety signals in VAERS for Covid ‘vaccines’ that the FDA and CDC overlooked. If they were handling the Covid and Covid vaccines appropriately, the public could trust them, but just as social distancing was never their right to impose and it destroyed the economy, harmed lives and didn’t work, so too their work on Covid treatment and ‘vaccines’ has been unprofessional.
Who has done a better or more thorough job investigating the deaths reported to VAERS?
And how many of those deaths do they attribute to the vaccines?
Go study the pathologists’ analysis and reports, as I have, and get back to me on that.
Maybe the vax companies should start selling subscriptions(?) Maybe set up a recurring order on Amazon(?)
notice how this study is flawed but everything on mercola and various substacks is gospel truth.
I'm sure that's the plan. If diabetics can shoot up insulin every day, why not the rest of us at least once a month!
Be afraid. Be very afraid, of where this is headed.
I suppose it depends on if those patients in the hospital are protestors with 0% blood oxygen levels.

Yes. That's the one. That's the equivalent value of human life as far as the medical Politburo is concerned.
You have ZERO Actual & personal experience with the jabs.
You are no different than a virgin’s opinion on sexual matters.
I had 4 jabs so far in 2 years time span.
Guess what? I got infected, tested positive, had serious covid symptoms, but recovered in 42 hours! That is in less than 2 days! Did not need any medications, not hospitalization.
With a population of 1.4 Billion, 15,000 deaths per day is NOTHING. At that rate, it would take 66 days to get to a million. To be on par with US deaths and since China is 4.5x more populated (1.4B vs 330M), in 9 months they “should” be at 4.5million. CALL ME THEN.
It comes from the Lancet. Now no better than Wikipedia.
Consider the originating source. Always. If a corrupt pile of goo, put burden of proof on them. Do not believe any aspect until it is squeaky clean. Treat them like MSM — is sky blue? Dunno. Will go look for myself, ‘cause the MSM is a pack of lying dog doo.
If nothing is going on, why is Deep State screwing with medical coding...?
And if our Deep State is screwing with medical coding, you can bet it’s not the only one...
It’s now been tested on about 15% of the US population, some forced by employer or university mandates
Seems a lot of sheep are paying attention
