RE: What Does 100% Vaccination Look Like to Stop COVID? Look at HMS Queen Elizabeth

[apshamilton]

The effectiveness of the jabs has reduced to 39% from Israeli studies.
It works initially but wears off quickly and becomes less effective as the virus mutates.

By contrast for anyone under 60 without 2 pre-existing conditions (ie 95% of the population) COVID-19 presents extremely low risk and getting it once while you are young and healthy will protect you for a long time - that's what Israeli studies are showing.

So jabbing should be focussed on the at risk and everyone else should just get on with their lives.

Mass jabbing has joined the list of other failed and ineffective policies like lockdowns and masks. These are the facts.

Agree, vaccinations should focus on the immunocompromised and elderly. That was specifically 39% effective against the Delta variant. Again, the shots are effective against symptomatic disease, you may still get COVID - especially with so many unvaccinated out there.

From the same article that states the "39% effectiveness..."

Covid-19 vaccine is just 39% effective in Israel where the delta variant is the dominant strain, but still provides strong protection against severe illness and hospitalization,...

...the two-dose vaccine still works very well in preventing people from getting seriously sick, demonstrating 88% effectiveness against hospitalization and 91% effectiveness against severe illness, according to the Israeli data published Thursday.

And yes, boosters may be required each year against the prevalent strain. Current studies suggest that getting COVID will potentially give you immunity from 5-8 months. But, you run the risk of other COVID complications, which are not fully understood yet.

If you can, get the vaccine even if you've had COVID.
