Honest question.
Not an assertion, but rather some easily drawn conclusions drawn from Government sourced empirical data.
Table 4 - the rate of death from the Alpha (UK) strain is more than 5 times the rate of death from Delta (Indian). Attachment 2.
(and it would appear this is independent of any vaccine 'effect' looking at the previous reports)
Conclusion: Delta is far less virulent (which fits with virology 100).
Table 6 - Secondary attack rates (transmission in a more scary way) - Alpha 10.2%, 5.6% (household, non household)
Delta 11.0, 5.8% - that is, same same as Alpha.
Conclusion: Delta is pretty much on a par with Alpha in terms of transmissability - despite the BS from many quarters. Which fits with what didn't happen with the Delta outbreak in Melbourne.
Table 5 - the real stand out.
(see attachment 1 for a snippet)
The table shows 121,402 cases of Delta of the unvaccinated. 165 have sadly died. 0.1% of cases.
The table also shows 28,773 Delta cases in the fully vaccinated, 224 people sadly died. 0.8% of cases.
Conclusion: The PHE data shows that people who have received two doses of a CV19 vaccine have a 507% higher chance of dying due to the Delta variant than people who are unvaccinated.
Do your best LP.
And here's the laughable Burnet report Scomo and the Premiers plan to use to justify ongoing lockdowns....i'll comment more later (yet to read it in full) but this one chart caught my eye.
Risk benefit for the u50s, arguably even u60s??
