From a date in the near future, they will no longer track or report COVID case numbers. It will be just like the Flu and they will treat it like the flu.
What the hell? We have 8% fully vaccinated. What the hell has changed?
UK is doing the same as well.
Singapore also.
It actually makes sense there, they 60-70 vax rates and at some stage they do have to go on like normal.
I'll tell you what doesnt make sense. In the UK, they have 85% of the population at least partially vaccinated, 65% fully. 150K vaccinated a day. With 85% vaccinated, they are getting 28K new cases A DAY! 150K over the last week which is up by 72%. 22 deaths per day which is up 11%. Why are all these going up with 85% vaccination.

Now they are announcing that they arent going to record or report case numbers and treat it like the flu. Its almost like the vaccines arent working like they expected and arent keen on proving it?
under 50% - just
What is under 50%?
IF you are talking about vaccinations, the UK Govt site has it at 63% fully (two shots) and 85% partially
https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/
partial is a poor measure mate, you know that
you also know what under 50% is
No I dont know what is under 50%. I was completely open about 63% & 85% in my first post.
first vaccine doesn't count
Mate.....firstly, I was completely open and honest in my first post, I specifically said 85% partial and 63% fully.
Secondly, who says it doesnt count. Are you suggesting you have zero immunity after one shot?
Herd immunity for this virus was estimated at 60% (clearly wrong for a variety of important reasons).
NHS quotes 33m of a 66m population for 2 diese. Your stats are wrong.
One shot gives about 66% immunity.
Your stats are wrong mate. So your argument is wrong.
Mate, first of all.....I didnt make an argument at all. I actually asked a question.
Secondly, my stats are NOT wrong and they come from the UK Govt, you know, the same place as the NHS. You do realise that 66M population includes babies and children that are not appropriate to be vaccinated?
So one shot give 66% immunity, how much does two shots give?
Depends on what they get for the % 92/96 or more for a combo. Choose what you want. 92 is AZ. Since you don’t quote any stats sources. Look it up yourself.
Your stats are wrong mate. They do suit your “questions” though.
Post your references mate. It’s sounds tinfoil for 80odd % anywhere I look
Your post doesn’t come across as a genuine question BTW
Third, I genuinely try to be gracious in these threads and take people on good faith because I understand that many people have strong opinions one way and the other and I also understand and acknowledge that on these subject people can post spurious data and some people have a kneejerk reaction to oppose them.
I am done being gracious with you. Your implications that I am making up stats to "suit my questions", your statement that my assertations are "tinfoil" and telling me I'm not genuine, disqualify me being gracious with you and I will no longer take you on good faith.
Since I posted the question about how the hell the UK daily case rates, daily deaths and hospitalisations continue to skyrocket with such high vaccination rates, ***I HAVE POSTED THE SOURCE OF THE DATA TWICE!!!!!!*** Here you go for the third time.
https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/
They are the UK Govt offical data, the same as the NHS.
Now if I had any respect for your capacity to engage in an intellectual discussion in good faith based on truth and data, I would ask you the question of how a population with 85% of the adult population with 66% immunity and 63% with 92% immunity has over 27000 daily new cases (up 74%) from last week, has 27 deaths a day at the moment (up 11% but will lag by at least 24 days) and 300 hospitalisations a day in apopulation less than 3 times Aus?
But I dont have any respect for you, so go scream at windmills with what ever it is you are imagining and leave the converation for the adults.
So British population is 68.25million.
- about 20% for under 18= 54.6million adult population.
So 15% unvaccinated = 8 190 000
+ 8% of the 63% fully vaccinated 2 751 840
+ 34% of the remaining 12% vaccinated 4 804 080
= 15 745 920 susceptible to Covid.
Daily new cases of 27000 (0.17%) of 15 745 920
If the latest strains are as contagious as reported the numbers seems fairly logical for a population that is no longer under any lockdown restrictions (as far as i know) and has a fairly high population density.
Additionally, (not that ive followed it closely) from what i can see (from the little i skimmed in Scholar) Ivermectin (a drug which the clinical evidence shows is not statistically effective) has not been successful in any preliminary trials. Admittedly it was shown promising in testing in infected monkey cells but only at a dosage considered too dangerous to administer. Have you any links to suggest otherwise.
Not meaning to sound disrespectful with this post would genuinely like to know as everything Government reported generally seems to add up to me. But its been a while since i last read a journal article and never worked in any scientific field.
