There's no conspiracy here. If half the population is unvaccinated, that's a shit ton of people who are at risk for death. When spikes occur, those people get sick and die. 50% of the population doesn't confer herd immunity. We'll likely not achieve that as we were late on the draw, and the thing also mutates pretty quickly. So, now it's kinda like the influenza virus. Based on new variants, scientists basically do a "best guess" with quadravalent influenza vaccines. Sometimes they get it right, sometimes it's not as great in terms of efficacy.A very objective post. I appreciate that. I am sincerely asking this so I can better understand what is going on. Can you explain my post above your post? Maybe I am not reading or grasping something correctly.
How do those numbers work, especially how do the deaths double after over half the population gets vaccinated? One would think the numbers would be astronomical the year when nobody was vaccinated. I sincerely and honestly invite your thoughts or input on this since you have first hand experience.
I didn't mean to necessarily link our posts. I sometimes reply to a post and include it. Sorry about that.
