'Pfizer COVID vaccine significantly less effective against Delta variant'
Jerusalem Post ^ | 7/17/21 | MAAYAN JAFFE-HOFFMAN, ROSSELLA TERCATIN

Posted on 07/17/2021 3:39:32 AM PDT by EBH

The likely explanation is that among the current virus carriers, some 2,000 are schoolchildren, and half of them were fully vaccinated. Both groups are very unlikely to develop severe forms of the disease, even though it occasionally happens. At the moment, around 60% of the patients in serious conditions were vaccinated. "Percent of cases that turn critically ill is now 1.6%, compared to 4% at a similar stage in the 3rd wave when there were no vaccines," Prof. Eran Segal, a computational biologist at the Weizmann Institute of Science who advises the coronavirus cabinet, tweeted on Friday. He said that "In case of continued increase in cases, many more cases will be needed than in the 3rd wave to reach similarly high numbers of critically ill patients in the hospitals. This will contribute significantly to population-level immunity."

“Percent of cases that turn critically ill is now 1.6%, compared to 4% at a similar stage in the 3rd wave when there were no vaccines,”

Iow, The Delta is more benign than the Alpha.

The vaccine appears to be no better at preventing hospitalization than not having the vaccine.

OK.

What about Ivermectin and HCQ?

I’m not a doctor, but suspect they will continue to work.

But this is not about public health.

It is about the agenda. Deception, Destruction, and Subjection of the world.

Stop worrying about this unless you are in a high risk group like over 70 years old.

Eat a good diet, get good sleep, and exercise every day or at least four days a week.

Take vitamins including C and D and your immune system will do its duty and keep you alive.

Yep - but they will still say it's because the jabs have some effect even if it ain't what they hoped for...yada yada yada. And when they publish cases/deaths, they always omit demographics...

One day they tell us the vaccines work against the variants. The next day they tell us they’re ineffective. And they wonder why people are skeptical. Why isn’t the media calling for daily briefings to update us. Imagine them shouting out hostile covid questions to Biden?

How do we know that the injection is working at all? We don’t.

I went to the dermatologist yesterday. I was asked if I had gotten THE vaccine. I said no. I was not asked if I had gotten the virus, which I had. I find it very interesting that natural immunity is completely ignored. Have to ask the question why?

We live in a world I can no longer trust. There are too many ulterior motives. Money, control etc.

“One day they tell us... The next day they tell us...”

Sorta like eggs, caffeine, wine, red meat, and (this just in) chicken...

It’s like it’s intentional. But it had worked on our society, whenever maintaining life on earth is the most critical thing we do.

That’s because its a scam.
Drug companies had patents on these spike protein gene therapies in the early 2000’s.
That’s right,the “vaccination” for Covid was patented by drug companies years ago. So was the genetically engineered virus.

It’s not just the vaccine, we have better treatments.

Why do they act like its all and only the vaccine?

I had the Moderna jabs a couple of months ago. Other than the injection sites being sore to the touch for a couple days, I had no side effects. Makes me wonder.

There is no Alpha Delta or anything else.
This virus and gene therapy are patented at the European patent office.
Dr.David Martin found this out by checking patents to make sure the patents were not duplicates or occuring naturally.
Worldwide scam.

I had two injections and have not contracted tne covid virus

They effectively work.

any person over say 55 and and having any health problems should be vaccinated. That limit might be raised if you are in good health

Others need not get vaccinated and will get immunized naturally if they come down with covid

Look up a interview called a manufactured illusion.
Dr. David Martin explains how the virus was manufactured and patented in the early 2000’s. That’s right. The virus and all its variants were manufactured by drug companies and patented at the European patent office. What is even more damning is the fact that these spike protein “vaccinations” were patented soon after the virus.
Worldwide scam for money and population control.

The Vaccines either really work then kills you or makes you sick or it does absolutely nothing and then you catch COVID

Get ready for another shot.
This is the flu shot on a world scale.
The flu shot was not making enough money so they developed this. A shot every year for the worlds population=big bucks.
This shot is not a vaccine.

Absolutely agree.

Do you know about Catherine Austin Fitts?
