“ If this is what vax success looks like, I’d hate to see failure. ”
Nice try anti-vax guy.
7 day average deaths in the UK 12-21-2020 - 460
7 day average deaths in the UK 12-21-21 - 115

I’d say a 75 percent reduction in Covid deaths is a success. On what planet is this not a success? Especially since there are a lot fewer Covid restrictions now compared to last year.

— “a 75 percent reduction in Covid deaths is a success.”

Could be a success. Depends on what data one uses. “7 day average deaths” is one sort of data selection. Another is total deaths to date.

Data as of 22 December 2021

( 147,896 dead Brits in two years / 67,886,011 Brits ) x 100 = 0.218 %

In English, our shared language sometimes, a little over two tenths of one percent across a time span of two years.

I'd say the real “success” however one measures a pandemic, as the strains weaken, is that the pandemic hasn't measured up to the two year's drumbeat of hysteria.

Ferguson (Imperial College adulterer and breaker of his own lockdown) forecast 2.2 million dead in the US in short order. Two years later, our percentage is....

( 806,302 “official” US SARS CoV2 deaths / population of 331,002,651 ) x 100 = 0.243 %

In plain English, over almost TWO years, the percentage of deaths “from” and “with” is less than one quarter of one percent of the population. Averaged per year, half that percentage.

So oddly you might be right. We're seeing some form of success. And Antonius might be right too. The question is not which data set, but which topic.

As the pandemic wanes, is the virus a success? Neither 7-day averages nor cumulative percentage deaths seems to answer that. What will answer over time is watching the VAERS and European equivalent deal with deaths and other adverse reactions to the experimental injections. There is a rather good collection of data about COVID deaths and growing data about "vaccines " deaths. Time will tell.

The low-hanging fruit all perished last year, genius. This year's wave isn't killing less because of the vax. It's killing less because it's a milder strain and the people it's infecting are more robust. That's how pandemics have always worked throughout history.

Now, add to the above numbers those in the UK whom the jab has killed and will continue to kill as they administer booster after booster. The Yellow Card only takes credit for 1,645 vax deaths, but if their system is anything like VAERS, the true number is likely 10x higher at least.

And no, I'm not an "anti-vaxer" -- I had my tetanus shot last year after a puncture wound. I am clear-eyed enough to see that this particular vax is a colossal failure.
