You posted a graphic about the hospilization going up, but in it it showed ICU as well. The ICU numbers spiked under old covid and Delta... and not now... your graph proved my damn point, that Omicron is not close to as bad as delta or original covid.

That Delta was (allegedly) more extreme in terms of the illness of the host is diametrically opposed to how viruses normally mutate.

One of the more intriguing anomalies of the pandemic.

It was less virulent than original covid.... but more contagious so numbers were close. Which is exactly what you would expect.

Goduckies sees nothing wrong here.

I said Omicron was a cold, Delta was deadly to the unvaccinated....[The very old and those with several comorbidities - others, it was the flu] Omicron not so much. CDA had huge problems with Delta, our hospital was full I was taking the nurses to the hospital from their hotel's as FEMA had a strike team here it was so bad... in talking to them the major problems were the unvaccinated....

Once Omicron took over it all changed and our hospital is empty.

Yes agree older 50 years plus or ill... but it was still very deadly compared to Omicron which is not for anyone except the really old like 75 plus.

You fell for the media relative risk trap. Something that is twice as deadly on a less than 1% basis is a fucking rounding error on a small sample size. Actual risk reduction was basically zero. Statistical analysis isn’t your thing.

I just look at numbers don't need the media to do it for me... it shows after 50 it gets worse, then 60, then 70 and really bad above 80 or compromised....

But under 50 there was a very small number so you could argue a vaccine was worthless to them especially under 30 unless compromised.

You really don't get it, do you?

What does “worse” and “really bad” mean? Be specific.

Also deduct flu deaths from all the data and severe colds. The test did not and still does not know the difference.
