I wonder how many cases are nosocomial...
And so the house of COVID cards collapses...
And the quicker the test, the larger the false positive rate.
MA is one of the most vaccinated states in the union. There cases have been off the charts - but most certainly those in the hospital are unvaccinated. C-19 must avoid vaccinates like it does one’s eyes.
Each Hospital gets a bonus payment from the Government for every patient diagnosed with Covid.
That is a light estimate — in my hospitals I think it is closer to 75% or 80%
NY State also recently began distinguishing between those who were admitted “for” COVID, and those who were admitted for other reasons, who happened to test positive “with” COVID.
They also found that about half of their “COVID” hospitalizations, were just coincidental, rather than the reason for hospitalization.
As it has always been
This pandemic and vax narrative is in the midst of falling apart, IMO. More than one country has stopped the mandates altogether, CC is now fixated on words and definitions and then changing them, and a few elements of MSM are now doing CYA and starting to ask questions that should have been asked over 18 months ago.
I think that’s why the Administration and still-loyal elements of the MSM are war-mongering about Ukraine.....
Rapid antigen testing as a reactive response to surges in nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 outbreak risk
Three guesses who the superspreaders are...
And after reading that I'm put in mind of a quote by WC Fields...
If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull****.
By the week beginning October 3, compared with COVID-19 cases rates among unvaccinated persons without a previous COVID-19 diagnosis, case rates among vaccinated persons without a previous COVID-19 diagnosis were 6.2-fold (California) and 4.5-fold (New York) lower; rates were substantially lower among both groups with previous COVID-19 diagnoses, including 29.0-fold (California) and 14.7-fold lower (New York) among unvaccinated persons with a previous diagnosis, and 32.5-fold (California) and 19.8-fold lower (New York) among vaccinated persons with a previous diagnosis of COVID-19. During the same period, compared with hospitalization rates among unvaccinated persons without a previous COVID-19 diagnosis, hospitalization rates in California followed a similar pattern. These results demonstrate that vaccination protects against COVID-19 and related hospitalization, and that surviving a previous infection protects against a reinfection and related hospitalization. Importantly, infection-derived protection was higher after the Delta variant became predominant, a time when vaccine-induced immunity for many persons declined because of immune evasion and immunologic waning (2,5,6).

Now let's look at those numbers more closely...
"case rates among vaccinated persons without a previous COVID-19 diagnosis were 6.2-fold (California) and 4.5-fold (New York) lower" than the unvaxxed with no exposure group... okay... but...
case rates are "29.0-fold (California) and 14.7-fold lower (New York) among unvaccinated persons with a previous diagnosis".
Got that? The two groups here are those Vaxxed before getting C-19, versus The Unvaxxed that already had C-19...
This necessarily means that you are 3-5 times SAFER if you get the Virus BEFORE you get the Vaccine!!!!
This means that the rush to illegally obtain the EUA, the illegal suppression of HCQ and ivermectin, and every single one of the mandates has ENDANGERED people, more than if they had waited to get their first exposure before getting the Vaccine!!! There is no other way to interpret that data!!!
