CDC most recent report on the Delta Variant

Direct link to the report, https://context-cdn.washingtonpost.com/notes/prod/default/documents/54f57708-a529-4a33-9a44-b66d719070d9/note/753667d6-8c61-495f-b669-5308f2827155.#page=1

 

Highly Transmissable, but fully vaccinated lower the chance of infection by 8 folds.

 

 

Below chart say Delta is as infectious as chicken pox,  but they are as deadly as the original variant.

 

 

 

NPIs is their SMM-> https://www.cdc.gov/nonpharmaceutical-interventions/index.html

 

 

 

Singapore should do their own assessment report on the Delta variant and share it to see if ours is similar.

Of course he knows. You think he's stupid? 

Vaccinated people definitely acquire this virus and definitely transmit it. But they fall seriously ill less frequently then the unvaccinated. 

Basically what he wants, and what the gahmen wants, is to reduce the number of unvaccinated individuals in the population. 

There are two ways to do it. 

One is by pushing the vaccination effort and trying to be persuasive. They've already tried that. 

The other is...well, I'll let you guess what the other is. Here's a picture hint. 

The narrative here is to basically scare those left unvaccinated into getting it done asap. 

But even if that doesn't work, the second way is dead sure.

Also speaking on the podcast, Professor Dale Fisher, who chairs the WHO’s Global Outbreak and Alert Response Network added: "Masks, I think by and large, offer a false sense of security in the community.

"I'd like to discourage masks in the community. I think they're excellent in the healthcare setting where trained people look after sick people," he added.

No need. Just give free "limited edition" Hello Kitty toys will do. Everything, just call it "limited edition", will entice people.
Remember the crazy queue at McDonalds?

Assperts talking again.

"There's thus selective pressure for viruses to be milder to keep their host out of hospital so they can seed more infections."

We can only hope we are not infected with virus that are not selected for replication. ie those that kill their hosts!

I think it is a test balloon, preparing us to ignore the asymptomatic cases and just let them infect others (hopefully vaccinated) till the weaker ones die off and only the stronger ones remain.

Of the 604 COVID-19 patients in hospital, how true is it that most are well and only warded for observation? If they are really asymptomatic, why should they be even warded and taking up finite resources? And if these 604 patients have some symptoms, such as pneumonia, breathing difficulties, is it OK to consider them as without any health risks? 

I lost count of how many times I have said these since the start of this pandemic. It may be started with just a handful of personnel affected, but if we do not tighten our controls (multiple aspects, not just SMM or vaccination), we will see a sudden surge in hospitalization rate, more needs for ICU, and death rate will shoot up when our healthcare system get overwhelmed. No rocket science here.

CDC says 74% of people in Massachusetts Covid outbreak were fully vaccinated

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/30/cdc-study-shows-74percent-of-people-infected-in-massachusetts-covid-outbreak-were-fully-vaccinated.html?__source=iosappshare|com.apple.UIKit.activity.CopyToPasteboard

Overall, 274 vaccinated patients with a breakthrough infection were symptomatic, according to the CDC. The most common side effects were cough, headache, sore throat, muscle pain and fever. Among five Covid patients who were hospitalized, four were fully vaccinated, according to the agency. No deaths were reported.

Testing identified the delta variant in 90% of specimens from 133 patients.

While numerous studies have shown that the vaccines don’t work as well against the delta variant as they did against other strains, health officials say they are still highly effective, especially in protecting against severe illness and death. Roughly 97% of new hospitalizations and 99.5% of deaths in the U.S. are among unvaccinated individuals, U.S. health officials repeated this week.

The CDC also said the data has limitations. The agency noted that as population-level vaccination coverage increases, vaccinated persons are likely to represent a larger proportion of Covid cases. Additionally, asymptomatic breakthrough infections might be underrepresented because of detection bias, the agency said.

If vaccination doesn't stop transmission, it is going to get endemic and may never disappear for a long long time (if ever). 

We need to be prepared to spend perhaps another $100b? $300b? to buy time (possibly more lockdown as even "airtight" China and continental Australia are fxxking up) for more effective vaccines to emerge, to continue to pump prime the economy and save jobs? 

Better pray that the vaccination plan works, otherwise most of us are fxxked. Don't even need to talk about reopening. 

Booster shots annually for those that are fully vaccinated.

In other words, you'll can never be 'fully vaccinated'

Soon, they will even stop announcing how many clusters because there’s simply too many and they are ‘not useful’.

Better dont know better than knowing so much. So that people no need to scare and fear.

want more ppl to get vaccinated ?

tell them once vaccinated, NTUC, MRT, bus, SP bill etc 20% discount for 2 years.

simple. 

 

I think want more people to get vaccinated, should bring in non mRNA vaccine fast, i guess vaccination rate will go up a lot.

Actually you hit the nail on the head ... lets say we follow UK and open backside big big since our vaccination numbers are similar... well UK death numbers might look good right now because they already slaughtered thousands of their own most vulnerable in the last 18 months.

We havent taken this step so our reopening got lots of our most vulnerable still alive... for now...

His credibility has been bankrupt since Day 1 of the outbreak 😁
