Keep trying anti vaxxers one day the math will work in your favor


Posts mislead on Israel vaccine data


Posts mislead on Israel vaccine data

By The Associated PressJuly 22, 2021


CLAIM: The newest Israeli data on COVID-19 infections indicate a complete vaccine failure on every level. The data from Israel shows that nearly all serious cases and deaths are among the vaccinated.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: Missing context. The claim ignores the fact that Israel has only a fraction of the COVID-19 cases that it had in January, before vaccines were widespread. Furthermore, the majority of adults in Israel are now vaccinated with two Pfizer shots. No vaccine is perfect at preventing breakthrough cases, but the data shows vaccines are reducing the number of people who are severely ill, hospitalized or die from the virus.

THE FACTS: Israel was one of the first countries to vaccinate a huge swath of its population against COVID-19. Health officials around the world have been watching to see how the country fares against COVID-19 variants and how effective the Pfizer vaccine works at protecting the population.

Misleading posts on social media are now twisting data from Israel to falsely claim the country’s vaccination program is a failure due to the number of breakthrough cases of COVID-19 among the vaccinated. Medical professionals say Israel’s vaccine program is making remarkable progress against the virus.

“The vaccination campaign was hugely effective,” Dr. William A Petri, professor of infectious diseases at the University of Virginia, said of Israel’s efforts. “It’s really extraordinary how well these vaccines work.”

Experts say the country’s high vaccination rates are keeping case numbers down and reducing hospitalization and deaths even as the delta variant is provoking an uptick in infections. Data from Johns Hopkins University shows Israel documented 1,118 new cases on July 21 -- which is less than a tenth of the 11,934 new cases the country had at itspeak on Jan. 27, before vaccines were widespread.

“It doesn’t mean vaccines don’t work,” Dr. Robert Cyril Bollinger, Johns Hopkins University professor of infectious diseases, said about Israel’s data. “They have very low rates after vaccination versus where they were before vaccination.”

The vast majority of the new cases in the past month have shown only mild symptoms, but at least 73 people have had serious cases of COVID-19, the Associated Press reported. That is well below the more than 1,000 serious cases treated each day at the height of the pandemic, but up from 19 in mid-June.

Eran Segal, a scientist at Israel’s Weizmann Institute of Science who tracks COVID-19 data, tweeted on July 16 that the percent of COVID-19 patients who become critically ill has now decreased to 1.6% compared to 4% during a winter spike before vaccines were available.

As of Sunday, 56.3% of new cases in Israel were among vaccinated people. But that statistic reflects the fact that the majority of the population is now fully vaccinated.

Israel has a population of approximately 9.3 million people, of which more than 60% are fully vaccinated, according toJuly 21 numbersfrom the online scientific publication, Our World In Data. The country has had one of the swiftest vaccine rollouts in the world. By February, 80% of those over 60 had already received shots.

Since the start of the pandemic, experts have pointed out that vaccines are not 100% effective. In a July 5 statement, Israel’s Ministry of Health addressed the effectiveness of the Pfizer vaccine in light of the spreading delta variant and said, “the vaccine maintains an effectiveness rate of about 93% in preventing serious illness and hospitalization cases.”

so 300 hospitalized out of 5.4 million vaccinated people.

:unimpressed:


The bigger story here is there are only 514 covid hospitalizations in all of Israel when it has a population of 9.3 million. :ohhh:

don't understand statistics brehs


Exactly. It sucks that they tried to protect themselves and still ended up in the hospital, but nobody ever said the vaccine was 100% effective against hospitalization not once, no lies have been told.

And as mentioned, the fact that they have such a low number of hospitalizations for a large population of people suggests that mass vaccination works.

Also, they're saying those are the hospitalization numbers currently. Were 60% of the hospitalizations in the first week of August vaccinated? How about the 3rd week of July? June 5th? May 17th? Have the hospitalizations consistently been majority vaccinated? Those numbers are constantly changing, so cherry picking stats from an opportune moment when a high percentage of hospitalized folks are vaccinated doesn't mean that that's the status quo.

A better number to consider would be what percentage of every hospitalization in Israel has been vaccinated vs. unvaccinated since the mass vaccinations started, and of the hospitalized vaccinated, how old are they and what percentage of the total vaccinated population are they. Now if THOSE numbers looked bad then I'd say we have a problem.


OP and the rest of the folks that are :jawalrus: :mjgrin::smugfavre::sas2::ufdup::ooh::steviej::umad: over this sensationalist headline for the article, consider checking this book out, it's an informative read

Doesn’t change anything. If something is 95% effective, that means that there’s still a 5% chance that people will get sick. No one ever said it was 100%. But we’ve literally been having this argument since before 1776, and people were anti-vaxx back then too. Just replace smallpox with Covid-19. When half of the vaccinated population gets severely ill, let me know and I’ll maybe give a fukk then. Like maybe a 5% chance.

Better yet: they're holding J-10-9-7 off-suit and waiting for an 8 to complete a Straight on the River while I got 3-of-a-kind.....8's.​

Notice the ones who been wishing death on people haven't posted this not Israel but Iceland too.

Humans wicked.. Only time they worried about the next man is when it affects them.. When shyt go back to normal, it'll be business as usual.. So instead of every human examining themselves, they point fingers..
