OT: USA COVID-19 Vaccination Updates
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
but I don't think the variants were taken into account in that article. the variants are more contagious and more deadly. and every new variant that comes out I always read is more virulent and deadly then the previous variant hence the explosion in cases and daily fatality numbers. plus, historically virus mutate to become more deadly as the more deadly the variant, the quicker the host dies and therefore the host can pass along the virus to other people as they are dead.
As an fyi I see Maryland will now only report weekly as of next Wednesday. Tougher to calculate for you
yeah, the day to day now is tough to track between when states are reporting and then backfilling in data over the past few days constantly changing now also. almost at the point of looking just at trend lines and just how the 7-day average looks compared teh 7-day average from a week before.. Hospital data might be the best now to look at as still appears to be mainly reported on a daily basis.
Hospital data is the only data that's federally required to be reported daily.
Japanese have been wearing masks ever since SARS. It seemed to work well for them when COVID rolled in. I have a friend who would get respiratory infections every time she traveled. She started wearing a mask on the planes years ago and hasn’t been sick since. I’ll start using my masks more when the flu hits our community even though I’ll get a shot for it. I think the uproar over wearing masks has little to do with their medical value.
Ahhhhh... You had me there for a second. I almost jumped off sides
That's why Japan is seeing yet another surge in cases, their third. That's why there were calls as recently as last month to cancel the Olympics due to rising cases.
So march 15th was almost 50% basically before hard core vax got started.....
Ok, I accept your secondary challenge.
Black Lives Matter.......except the dozens shot and/or killed every weekend in Chicago, Detroit, LA, Memphis, Baltimore, Newark................
Black Lives Matter ......only if they are killed by white cops.
Black Lives Matter......excepts the hundreds or thousands that will die because of heroin, fentanyl, or other drugs that are pouring in across Biden’s open border.
So how’d I do? Three times!!! What’s my prize???

To date, USA has 104,251 covid case per million and 1872 deaths per million. Japan has 6311 cases per million and 116 deaths per million. The USA rate in both is 17 times the Japanese rate. Japan obviously did a better job and masks were a big part of that.
plus they didn't have governors putting covid positive patients back into nursing homes accounting for tens of thousands or more deaths.
And, who really knows how each country tracks and records COVID cases and deaths. China has reported just over 91,000 positive cases to date……can’t imagine anybody believes that?
Yes, the US COVID case per million is much higher than Japan, but the US has also performed far more Covid tests than Japan, 460 million for the US vs 15 million for Japan. For Japan’s population of about 126 million, 15 million tests is low. You can argue that you’re not going to get a lot of positive cases if people are not being tested.

And the US runs the PCR tests too many times and has substantial false positives.
The USA obesity rate is 42.4%. The Japanese obesity rate is 2.2% for men and 3.5% for women. So a rate about 17-20 times, which tracks deaths. This seems to correlate much better than mask wearing. I really wish the CDC said to everyone that is obese or overweight to lose freaking weight as that is the most significant variable in deaths. But too politically incorrect to offend people so let’s jump to masks and 6 feet Separation. Fauci should have said that to protect yourself, get you BMI into normal ASAP.
I love how that narrative sticks without any factual basis, anyway, how relevant is it when the death/case rate is proportionately and equally less in Japan?
Japan isn't doing mass testing like the USA is, either. They have one of the lowest per capita testing rates among 1st world countries.
Japan has fewer COVID deaths than the U.S. because they drive on the left in Japan. Science.
You should look at all 50 states. You’ll find that there is almost no difference in death rates between heavy shot down states and open states
U.S. COVID death rate by state 2023 | Statista
As of March 2023, Arizona had the highest COVID death rate in the U.S., with 455 deaths per 100,000 population. Hawaii had the lowest death rate.

1.09M shots yesterday so total up to 324.4M with the 7 day rolling average at 0.87M. 84.8% of shots administered is the national average, 54.1% of population with 1+ dose (69.7% of the adult population), 46.3% of population fully vaccinated.
So far, 180 million Americans have received at least one dose of a vaccine. At least 154 million people have completed a vaccination regimen.
10,754 positives reported yesterday compared to 10,574 week over week. 7-day rolling average is at 12,605.
Fatality was 235 compared to 93 yesterday and 134 week over week, 7-day rolling fatality at 281.
Hospitalizations reported 7 day rolling average is 11,287 compared to one week ago 12,969 down 13.0%.
Hospital admissions reported 7 day rolling average is 1,692 compared to one week ago 1,896 down 10.8%.
So daily positive continue to flatline with no decrease over the last 10 days. Fatality chart moving down slightly but difficult to tell as the reporting is just so spotty and has shown to go right back up to 300 after a heavy reporting day. Good news is hospitalizations continue to decline after a few days where the rate of declined slowed, back up to over 10% decline in both categories.
This is from October 2020. The guy is prophetic.
Seriously, what is Joe waiting for?
“We don’t want to wait until after the fact and get caught with this thing already ahead of us when we know that masks work,” Marvasti told Yahoo Finance Live. “To put this in context, the Alpha variant, which originated out of the UK, was about 50% more infectious and transmissible. The Delta variant is 60% more infectious than that.”

‘Bringing back mask mandate is a good idea’: doctor on Delta variant
The World Health Organization’s decision to encourage those who are fully vaccinated to wear masks as a result of the highly transmissible delta variant is ‘a good idea,’ according to University of Arizona College of Medicine-Phoenix’s Dr. Shad Marvasti.
Wait until they get to the 'tri delt' variant. Tri delts were always the most infectious.Seriously, what is Joe waiting for?

He is waiting for the "science" to tell him what to do. You can trust "science".
More myocarditis, this time in the military.

Heart inflammation after COVID-19 shots higher-than-expected in study of U.S. military
Members of the U.S. military who were vaccinated against COVID-19 showed higher-than-expected rates of heart inflammation, although the condition was still extremely rare, according to a study released on Tuesday. All the patients, who at the time of the study's publication had recovered or...

I love how "science" just randomly makes up how much worse a given variant is.
Opinion | CDC's All-or-Nothing Approach to Teen COVID Vaccination Is All Wrong
The agency should revisit its latest guidance to maximize benefits and minimize risks

The virus won’t kill us, but the media and government will.
Great article. As a whole, CDC and other research groups/individuals have discounted natural infection. It is sad that what was once thought of as the preeminent voice of infections disease (CDC) was/is led by Redfield and Walensky (who is batshit crazy) and bungled this so badly.Opinion | CDC's All-or-Nothing Approach to Teen COVID Vaccination Is All Wrong
