'Vaccinated' Japan Brought to its Knees by Covid: Record Hospitalizations and Deaths

While Pfizer has “pledged” to conduct further studies into the efficacy and safety of the Covid vaccine, Japan, perhaps the most disciplined country in the world, is facing a dramatic situation. The state is setting record after record in Covid hospitalizations and deaths, ranking first in the world for the number of infections. Moreover, in October 2022, Japan also received the vaccine adapted for Omicron.

Japan is officially the most “vaccinated” country in the world. 83% of the population has at least one dose of the anti-Covid vaccine, 82% two doses, and 132% the third dose and the fourth dose, the latter being made with the vaccine adapted for the Omicron variant.

Despite the massive amount of vaccination, the country is experiencing an incredible increase in infections, hospitalizations, and deaths. After the completion of the vaccination campaign in 2021, when 80% coverage had been reached, the number of cases, at least until then, exploded. Thus, at the end of January 2022, Japan had reached more than 100,000 cases per day, reaching a peak of 255,000 cases in August.

After a halving of infections in September and October, from November 2022, the number of cases has so far remained at an average of 200,000 cases per day.

Worse, hospitalizations and Covid deaths have increased to a record level. Since January 4, 2023, hospitalizations have reached 44,101, surpassing the record set in August 2022, when 38,000 hospitalizations were reported in a single day…

Your guess is at least as good as mine ... the numbers are just AFU.

Japan’s Covid death rate is at an all time high in the past few weeks. That means > 2020, 2021 and 2022.

The focus on this is to understand criteria. Covid deaths in Japan are happening at all time highs and with nearly no ventilator use. The virus is being found in heart tissue and kidneys and deaths are via failure of those organs. WHO guidelines for declaring a Covid death is “deaths caused by or substantially contributed to by the virus”.

China is a different story. China declares a Covid death ONLY if there is respiratory failure. Their official death numbers are low because of this departure from WHO guidelines.

The new variants attack hearts and kidneys, and they penetrate immunity. Immunity of any kind. That is why vaxed Japan is being smashed and that is why Sinovac didn’t work to stop it in China.

The BBC sent reporters into China and found hospitals packed and ditto crematoriums. The official numbers aren’t going to reflect this because of their declaration criteria. BBC estimates 15,000 Covid dead per day in China.

There is no herd immunity if variants penetrate all immunity.
