@yaksha You realize that is only unique to israel and is the result of the fact that such a huge portion of the population that is vulnerable is vaccinated (90%+ of those over 50 years old)..
So this is perfectly normally and in no way suggests a problem. If the majority of the population is vaccinated than the majority of new cases will be vaccinated.
And I showed the math on israel as to why it is not just normal but expected given their vaccination rate.
Since im sure your a smart person I presume you did the same math on the UK numbers. What did you get?
@yaksha
@freemo Irrelevant. You claimed this was unique to Israel. It isn’t. Don’t speak authoritatively when you’re ignorant of basic facts.
@deprecated It is unique to israel, the UK has different numbers that arent as severe as the numbers in israel.
The same math works out there too.
How many covid vaccines were given in that period and how many other vaccines were given in that same period? Hint, you see more in VARES because we are administering COVID vaccines are rates much higher than other vaccines at the moment. We are after all trying to inoculate an entire planet as fast as we can.
*innoculate
that can't be a serious statement. Do you have any idea what you're implying? Innoculating 7.5bn people?
We managed to do it with small pox and eradicated the virus. Though im pretty sure people are a fair bit dumber these days.
Likewise our ability to produce and distribute the vaccine has grown perportionally as well.. what are **you** talking about.
@freemo @hydramacready @DK_Dharmaraj Too dumb to see the implications of letting free global travel happen while trying to control the spread of a disease, yep, you sound like a midwit academic alright.
> produce
let's skip R&D and go straight to mass production. riddle me this, the typical time to *develop a vaccine is 5 to 10 years, but COVID vaccines have been rushed to market in less than one. Why is that?

@freemo @hydramacready @DK_Dharmaraj “Look at this historical outlier, the sole case of a disease being eradicated; I’m sure we can do that again on demand.”
And of course you know it took 175 years to eradicate smallpox, right?
@hydramacready @DK_Dharmaraj @freemo It exists in labs, but I don’t know that there are any wild cases. I had to get the vaccine in the Army, I didn’t get the telltale scar on my shoulder though.
when smallpox was a thing the population was infinitesimal compared to now and we weren't flying or connected by decent roads at the time, again, what are you even talking about
