Please read the link, the data’s from Israel, not the USA. The Israeli thing is not just a blurb. You brought up a valid point.

I could argue it was just ignorance up to now but after you have provided him context...he will just be lying if he continues to make that silly ass claim.

You live in fucking Israel?

https://www.rivm.nl/en/news/4-in-5-c...not-vaccinated

4 in 5 COVID-19 patients in intensive care are not vaccinated against the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. The chance that a fully vaccinated person will end up in ICU due to COVID-19 is 33 times lower than for a non-vaccinated person Originally Posted by WTF
Out of every 100,000 people over 75 years old who are not vaccinated, 3.8 were admitted to hospital. Out of every 100,000 people over 75 years old who are vaccinated, 0.35 were admitted to hospital.

Wow! Just wow. This is a good example of how you really see how effective the vaccines have been when you segment by age. So yes, 20% of the patients in the ICU beds are vaccinated. But if you were over 75 and unvaccinated, your chances of ending up in the ICU from COVID were 11X greater. Something similar is going on in the 50 to 74 age group for hospitalizations, although you can't read the numbers from the graph. For the under 50’s the reduction in hospitalization rate for the vaccinated is off the scale. And overall, the chance of ending up in the ICU is 33X lower for the vaccinated!

The fact that the much more highly educated doctors are themselves getting vaccinated at a 98% clip does not seem to concern him.

Hell even Trump got vaccinated AFTER he caught Covid.

These folks think odds of 100 to 1 are good! I'd like to put them on a plane with 200 other passengers and let them know that 2 random passengers would be dead when they landed and see how many bought a ticket for that flight!

Interesting point. Trump reportedly hasn't gotten the booster. With immunity from the disease added to the two COVID shots, he's probably still in reasonably good shape.

As you know your odds of dying vary greatly depending on your age and health. I bet the infection fatality ratio is a good bit below 1% now for the previously uninfected and unvaccinated, given that the hospitals aren't overcrowded, we have more knowledge and tools to treat the disease, and the young are a larger % of the unvaccinated. Add to that, over 80% of the population has some immunity from vaccination and infection. Thank you President Trump, for Operation Warp Speed, which got us to where we are so quickly!

Please provide your sources.

No study. No peer review.

Just a suspect ,"My wife is an anesthesiologist"

May I suggest your wife look over the Israeli study and compare your conclusion to Tinys'. If she comes to the same conclusion as yourself may I further suggest were you ever to go under the knife to use a different anesthesiologist or at the very least have another anesthesiologist check your anesthesiologists' wife's, concoction

Which the more selfish?

But driving sober around intoxicated drivers also increases your risk. The most likely time of day for a fatal car accident is Saturday night leading into Sunday morning. The second-most likely time of day for traffic fatalities is Friday night leading into Saturday morning. Drunk and high drivers account for the increase in fatal accidents during the weekends.

I drew no conclusions, although if I were to they’d be that at my age, weight and current fitness level Covid is nothing to worry about. I’m more likely to get mauled by a polar bear in Miami Beach. If you’re really old, a heavy smoker or fatass then get vaxed, nobody is stopping you. I’ll leave my immune system intact.
