99.5% Of People Killed By Covid In Last 6 Months Were Unvaccinated, Data Suggests

TOPLINE: CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said at a Thursday White House briefing that preliminary data reviewed by her agency suggests 99.5% of the people who died from Covid-19 over the past six months were unvaccinated, a stunning statistic in support of her assertion that nearly every virus-linked death is now preventable.
Coronavirus Pandemic Causes Climate Of Anxiety And Changing Routines In America:
Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center employees transport a deceased patient to a refrigerated truck on ... Walensky said the early data “from a collection of states” indicates nearly every coronavirus victim since January—a month after the U.S. first began administering shots—was not vaccinated against the virus.
She emphasized this as a reflection of the efficacy of vaccines, which she insisted have made virtually all virus-linked deaths entirely avoidable.
The CDC director juxtaposed the positive signals of vaccine efficacy with the threat of the more infectious delta variant, which she said now makes up an estimated 25% of new cases.
Walensky expressed particular concern about 1,000 counties (primarily based in the South, East and Midwest) that she said have vaccination rates of 30%.
These communities are “our most vulnerable,” Walensky said, noting the CDC has already started seeing “increased rates of disease” in some of the areas due to the spread of the mutant delta strain.
CRUCIAL QUOTE
“Any suffering or death from Covid-19 tragic,” Walensky said. “With vaccines available across the country, the suffering and loss we are now seeing is entirely avoidable.”
SURPRISING FACTS:
A previous analysis by the Associated Press found 99.2% of the more than 18,000 coronavirus-linked deaths reported in May were among unvaccinated individuals, with just 150 dying from “breakthrough” infections (in fully vaccinated people). However, the Thursday statistic from the CDC offers a much broader look at the link between vaccinations and Covid-19 deaths.
TANGENT:
As top public health officials continue to sound the alarm about the threat of the delta variant, the Biden administration announced Thursday it will be deploying rapid response teams across the U.S. to the hot spots where the strain is flourishing. This will involve a combination of both on-the-ground and virtual assistance, explained White House Covid-19 czar Jeff Zients. He did not specify exactly where these “surge response” teams will be sent, but suggested it may be the 1,000 counties highlighted by Walensky.
KEY BACKGROUND:
Though almost every state is reopened, vaccination rates have drastically slowed across the country with less than half of all eligible Americans fully inoculated. The vaccine rollout has unfolded with stark divisions along party lines, as signaled by the fact that all 18 states that surpassed President Biden’s goal of having 70% of residents at least partially vaccinated by July 4 voted for him in the 2020 election. A handful—Mississippi, Louisiana, Wyoming and Alabama—are yet to surpass even a 50% vaccination rate.
Here are some Covid19 statistics reflecting total number of deaths.
Source: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1254488/us-share-of-total-covid-deaths-by-age-group/
As of September 15, 2021
Total number of deaths 658,755
Out of total population of 331,089,936
Total death count for 50yr olds to 85+yr olds 622,362.
Subtract the 622,362 from 658,755 = 36,392 deaths of those 49 and under. Those numbers are epidemic totals.
Without a breakdown of total population by age cohorts it seems that a seat of the pants guess tha about half the population under 50 is in little danger of dying from Covid19...so why the frantic push for 100% vaccinations. CDC, NIH, and every major hospital is aware of these numbers.
For a reality check here are the leading causes of death in the USA:
Heart disease: 659,041
Cancer: 599,601
Accidents (unintentional injuries): 173,040
Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 156,979
Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 150,005
Alzheimer’s disease: 121,499
Diabetes: 87,647
Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis: 51,565
Influenza and pneumonia: 49,783
Intentional self-harm (suicide): 47,511
The Forbes article was based on data that you quote and linked to was derived from data that added in all the “Covid deaths” before the vaccines were even available.
“Walensky said the early data “from a collection of states” indicates nearly every coronavirus victim since January—a month after the U.S. first began administering shots—was not vaccinated against the virus.”
This data was hugely inflated by adding deaths that had almost nothing to do with Covid. And of course in the beginning the “experimental vaccines” were effective. The reason for using mRNA technology was because “experts” knew the virus would mutate within a short period of time and render traditional vaccines worthless. It has now been demonstrated conclusively that the mRNA experiment was a colossal failure.
Any conclusions drawn from data that came before “Delta” and other variants became the prevalent strains is basically worthless. This is a dynamic situation. Fortunately the primary issue with not enough “hospital beds” is really just a problem with a shortage of nurses caused largely by vaccine mandates that are causing a large percentage of nurses to quit. Once this is rectified everything will eventually get back to normal.
