COVID-19 Health System Overload Forecaster
Very small study and early days but still positive news.
"COVID-19 Omicron variant may protect against severe Delta infection, research suggests"
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-12-29/covid-19-omicron-variant-may-prot...
Blowin and Blindboy, maybe you’re both right about transmission and vaccination. The Sydney delta out break appeared to slow dramatically once vaccination rates increased suggesting transmission was reduced with vaccination. Omicron though appears to be spreading with ease despite high vaccination rates.

Things do look promising. Like they say, a small study...but heading in the right direction.

Dont confuse cause with correlation.
We are finally seeing the true nature of covid after two years of lies , obfuscation and cover ups. Contrary to Blindboy’s hilarious “ I haven’t seen the data but there may be remnant pockets of delta “ line, Delta is as prevalent as it ever was and the relentless scare mongering of hospitalisation and death has never come to pass.
There are still millions of unvaccinated Australians and yet the doom spreaders want you to believe that 24 unvaccinated ( and 16 vaccinated) people in ICU is evidence that the vaccines were a miracle silver bullet….lol.
Covid was never as bad as it was made out to be.
Remember “ 2 weeks to save the health system “ ….well this is what would have happened if Australians hadn’t been coerced, corralled and cowed into the lockdown bullshit.
It is literally no worse than a bad flu year. Literally no worse.
The lies aren’t done yet though….they’ll never be done.
I just post a direct quote of the CEO of Pfizer saying that the clinical trials for their vaccine, the only clinical trial on the vaccine ever performed , showed a minimum of 90% efficacy in preventing Covid……and yet a few minutes later there’s some dumb cnt ( Roadkill) repeating the lie that no one ever said the vaccines were meant to prevent transmission and no one ever claimed they did so.
For funk’s sake!!!!! He’s contradicting the CEO and lead scientist of the company that makes the fucking vaccine!
WTF?
Almost everyone who is dying WITH covid ( and that’s fuvk all people) are vaccinated. Fuck all,people are getting seriously sick just like they never would unless the statistics were doctored to create the impression of an illness far, far worse than covid actually is.
The only thing that’s changed is the political narrative.
It was only a month or so ago that the fuckstiks on here were going on about how they want the unvaccinated separated from society because they reckon the unvaccinated spread covid. I’m sure if you asked them they’d still say this….because they are following ideology and their tendency towards being cunts rather than any fact based outcomes.
As for the politicians and their recent arrival at “ personal responsibility “….lol.
They do not give a fuck about your freedom. Let’s see their views on personal responsibility when ( if) they truly let the covid fear mongering pass them by . Wait until music festivals kick back into gear and see how long it takes them to start strip searching adult Australians and sucking the sniffer dogs onto them to see their true thoughts on personal responsibility.
The virus has no plans to support any argument or point of view. It does what it does to replicate itself and like water or rust will find a way.
"similar viral loads in vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals infected with Delta"
https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.09.28.21264260v1
Abstract
Background Pre-Delta, vaccination reduced transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from individuals infected despite vaccination, potentially via reducing viral loads. While vaccination still lowers the risk of infection, similar viral loads in vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals infected with Delta question how much vaccination prevents onward transmission.
Very often the high level messaging just strives to keep things simple and in the process sweeps the complexities and uncertainties under the carpet.
In normal politics and policy this works just fine to muddle through and no-one is that sure if things work well or not. With virus where we keep a score card, not so much.
Craig wrote:Yeah, contrast that with some other friends and they've not been hit anywhere near as hard. Mild as.
You think the mild cases must be omicron because…..?
You do realise that most cases of this virus show no symptoms and almost all the rest are ultra mild regardless of strain don’t you?
Oh wait….you’ve been told that everything is different now and that we can forget all the fake news they fed us before hey?
“It’s all good people- the sky is still falling but it’s not going to be as heavy as we thought. .”

No mate. The CEO of Pfizer said the clinical trials showed their vaccine reducing transmission by at least 90%. It was a big lie used to sell his product which led to the entire globe buying hundreds of billions of dollars worth.
Remember “ herd immunity at 70% vaccinated” ?
Then they started to get vaccine numbers up by forcing people to get the jab and then it became “ herd immunity at 80% vaccinated “.
Then everyone got vaccinated and it became “ Herd immunity? ….I don’t know what you’re talking about. “
It helps to have some idea what your are talking about Blowie. Pfizer reported the result of their trial as 90% efficacy. No-one with any knowledge of medical trials expects that the efficiency, that is the results in the community, will be exactly the same. The main cause of the difference is in the difference between the demographics of the trial cohort and the demographics of the actual population. It is impossible in most circumstances to match the cohort to the wider demographic across all the main variables age, gender and ethnicity. In general, since they are paid, cohorts will tend to be younger and healthier as uni students are often happy to earn a bit extra. This is particularly true for trials like vaccines, which are not treating a pre-existing condition.
In terms of transmission I would be very surprised if they made any claims at all as it is unlikely to have been part of any vaccine trial for ethical reasons. If you have evidence to the contrary let's see it.

Most of them, sypkan, burleigh, blowin and other associated anti vax clowns believe they are right, even though they are wrong.

I actually wonder if they ever consider putting up their hands and saying "Yep, I got this whole covid thing hopelessly wrong. I'm going to climb out the rabbit hole and get on with my life". Surely that's an easier option than keep the bullshit flowing day in day out. That's got to be exhausting.
Can you be an anti vaxxer if you’re vaxxed?

A friend of a mate, conspiracy nut got it and ended in hospital. Says it all.
Says what exactly?
As it stands the hospitalisation rate is less than the flu…..except flu is more dangerous for a younger cohort.
NSW has had 659 deaths within 28 days of a positive covid test out of 166417 CONFIRMED cases. The NSW health officials freely admit that case numbers must be much higher.
At it stands covid in NSW has a all ages all comorbidities survival rate of 99.60%. The survival rate for the under 80s is closer to 99.995%.
Enough of the fear mongering and doom.
“You just wait till you see the death later….you just wait “…….pffffft.
NSW covid fatalities are literally lower than the flu ya fucken panic mongers.
Hey Craig.
In response to your mates Covid symptoms, and the timeline and sequence of them sound identical to what i went through with Influenza A about 6 months before Covid hit. It was brutal. Was stuck in a remote house in Vicco and the hotwater and heating packed it in at the same time so had to struggle through without heat. there were moments i wondered if i might be off to meet my maker. The dog i was looking after, a generally friendly Doberman even seemed to be eying me off for a potential meal with an evil look in his eye!!
Hope your mate recovers quickly. These things can be brutal.

Hey goofy foot. blowin is one, and so too is Avi the wife basher. He's anti-vax for the cash but pro-vax for his own health.
So yes, you can be vaxxed and anti-vax. I reckon there's plenty of complete bullshit artists who are both.

"prove me wrong" about your claim of 99.995% survival rate? Seriously blowin, I've done this on multiple occasions. Death rate = number of cases divided by number of deaths. This is not complicated. You're either too stupid to understand basic maths, or too arrogant to admit you are wrong. Saying the same lie over and over and over again doesn't make it true.

Israel is Gold!
It’s the perfect example of the depth of bullshit being pushed throughout the developed world.
Israel’s shares borders with some direct neighbours. Some of its neighbours are Jordan, Palestine , Egypt , Syria and Lebanon.
Israel has had the absolute fuck vaccinated out of it. They are into their 4th shot with a virtually 100% vaccinated population !! They must be so well protected and doing so much better than their less wealthy neighbours hey!
Let’s have a look at how much better they are doing :
Israel :
Population- 9.2M
Deaths- 8243
Egypt
Population-102M ! Ten times Israel!
Vaccination rate - 18.7%
Deaths- 21667
Syria
Population- 17.5M almost double Israel
Vaccination rate- a whopping 4.5%!!!!
Deaths- 2884 …..Huh? A quarter of Israel’s deaths !?!?
Palestine
Population 4.8M
Vaccination rate- 30%
Deaths- 4650
Lebanon
Population-6.8M
Vaccination rate- 26%
Deaths- 9072
Wow! When you look at the figures of countries which are literally abutting each other akin to states in Australia you can really see the huge, massive , real world benefits of injecting your population with a toxic substance repeatedly.
Not.
Why is this not accounted for? Because the media in the developed world doesn’t want to acknowledge these facts.

For sure bloke.
Now if you’ll just divide the number of cases amongst the under 80s , which is probably in the 155,000 to 160,000 range , by the number of people under 80 who’ve died from covid - probably about 50 people. Then turn the survival rate into a percentage.
Go do your maths bloke.
PS Don’t forget the fatality rate for the flu is about 0.4%. That makes a survival rate for the flu of 99.6% for the flu.
PANIC!!!!!!

Hey Andy. That’s absolutely shithouse that some people are currently experiencing what’s probably the worst experience of their lives in hospital. I hope every one of them pulls through. But do you mind if I you could ask that nurse a couple of questions if you see them again please.
Could you ask them how many patients we are talking about and their likely vulnerability to any illness ? Are they old or suffer from chronic severe illness? Are they obese?
This is important to me because when you say that multiple people are intubated it lends me to imagine dozens of otherwise healthy people who’ve succumbed purely to covid. If this was the case it would cause me to seriously reevaluate my opinion on the virus. If ot is a handful of already sick or extremely elderly people I’d find this unsurprising. I wouldn’t derive pleasure from the news in any way- I’m not a ghoul - but it would definitely help define the virus in my mind.
My point is that old and vulnerable people get sick for many, many reasons and they often end up in ICU and each year tens of thousands die. On average there is about 3270 people die every single week and I don’t think their deaths are less important than a covid death.
Cheers mate.
