CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

The UK released official figures for vaccine related deaths just last week, which was based on a study of the last 19.6 million doses the UK has issued. For all vaccines and all complications the latest figures are;

For under 40s the side-effect death rate from vaccines is approx 0.8 people per one million dose, for over 40s it is approx 2.3 people per one million doses.

There was no vaccine that was spectacularly safer or worse than any other.

For Sars-CoV-2 by comparison to the vaccine, if those million were left unvaccinated, the Delta variant will seriously infect more than 258,000 people, with approx 30% of that 258,000 suffering serious and long term illness, and 6,000 of the 258,000 dying.

When you compare that the earlier variants, in which there would be about 70,000 serious cases from the million and 1,800 deaths.

So for those a little dusty on the math, that means Sars-CoV-2 is more lethal than the worst case scenario for the vaccines somewhere between 780 times for all variants, and 2600 times for the Delta variant!

It becomes pretty clear why they take the Delta variant so seriously.

btw., The vaccine politics of it all is exposed by the stats, because it turns out less people die from AZ in the under 40s than in the over 40s, but I suppose nobody wants to see young people suffer long term health effects so the oldies get the AZ. Of course the decisions are made relative to the lethality of COVID-19 illness for different age groups, but unfortunately death is only one measure as the USA is about to find out.
