Israel has a very high vaccination rate (58% -80% depending where you look). The vast majority of the population vulnerable to Sars-CoV-2 has been vaccinated with a corresponding drop off in Covid fatalities.
A couple of things I find of interest though.
1.
<<<More than 7,700 new cases of the virus have been detected during the most recent wave starting in May, but just 72 of the confirmed cases were reported in people who were known to have been infected previously – that is, less than 1% of the new cases.
Roughly 40% of new cases – or more than 3,000 patients – involved people who had been infected despite being vaccinated.
With a total of 835,792 Israelis known to have recovered from the virus, the 72 instances of reinfection amount to 0.0086% of people who were already infected with COVID.
By contrast, Israelis who were vaccinated were 6.72 times more likely to get infected after the shot than after natural infection, with over 3,000 of the 5,193,499, or 0.0578%, of Israelis who were vaccinated getting infected in the latest wave.>>>[1]
2.
<<<Analyzing the government’s national health statistics, researchers estimated that the Pfizer shot was just 39 percent effective against preventing infection in the country in late June and early July, compared with 95 percent from January to early April. In both time periods, however, the shot was more than 90 percent effective in preventing severe disease.>>> [2}
Preliminary data strongly suggests that the Pfizer vaccine does not prevent transmission and even may make the vaccinated more likely to be infected, not withstanding the chance of severe illness being reduced.
The recent example of a group of fully vaccinated Democrat politicians whom fled Texas to Washington D.C. to avoid a vote, with at least 6 of them subsequently testing positive for Sars-CoV-2 and going on to further infect other staff is good supporting anecdotal evidence of this. [3]
This all suggests to me that Sars-CoV-2 will continue to spread in spite of vaccination rates and despite the media promulgating a message that "vaccination prevents the spread." Yet is this really a concern? I don't think so simply because, here in Tennessee, deaths attributed to Covid-19 (ie. with or due to the virus) have remained stable even with a spike in new detected cases. [4]
Testing has correspondingly increased with the recent increase is positive tests. No real surprise there.
Yet the media, health authorities and political leaders continue to spread fear among the people in an attempt to persuade everyone to get vaccinated, even those whom are already have natural immunity and those at extremely low risk due to robust immune systems.
There is still ZERO emphasis as it pertains to actual lifestyle choices which either enhance or retard one's immune system. The entire approach is one of a "central plan" where the so called "experts" know what is best and that anyone objecting to "their plan" and therefore CHOOSES to not get vaccinated is stupid and misinformed.
The arrogance of these people is both astonishing and dangerous.

the supposed virus has never been isolated, the charade is 100% lies, not a grain of truth in it.....The Pasture Germ theory is all lies... according to the CDC Gov website VAERS, 13,000 have died in the US in just 7 months of this mRNA Gene Therapy Drug. They openly admit that only 1% of deaths are reported to VAERS. Meaning the death toll in the US could be as much as 1.3 million in just 7 months.
ReplyDeleteThe drug companies themselves openly state that it does not stop the spread of covid, and does not protect a person from getting covid...They in a descriptive way actually claim it will increase your chances of death from covid by 20 fold. Meaning they are hoping for a 95% cure rate. Whereas the average person of all ages combined already has a 99.75% recovery rate. Truth is stranger....be blessed
