Meanwhile, in biscuits-approved, freedom-loving Brazil:

A Collapse Foretold: How Brazil’s Covid-19 Outbreak Overwhelmed Hospitals (Published 2021)

The virus has killed more than 300,000 people in Brazil, its spread aided by a highly contagious variant, political infighting and distrust of science.

“We have never seen a failure of the health system of this magnitude,” said Ana de Lemos, the executive director of Doctors Without Borders in Brazil. “And we don’t see a light at the end of the tunnel.”

Texas and Sweden doing fine while Israel has highest excess mortality in Europe despite/because of vaccination

Because of? My god, you really have gone off into the deep end, haven't you.

Also, Israel is in Europe now? That only works in Eurovision.

 

[Mr. Tea]

So, any comment on how Brazil is getting on?

 

[Leo]

Israel has highest excess mortality in Europe

putting aside the geographic cock up, what do you believe is the cause?

[Mr. Tea]

KILLER VACCINES, apparently.

KILLER VACCINES, apparently.

sorry, @Mr. Tea, a statement like that must to be accompanied by a screen grab of a confusing, unsourced chart.

 

[mixed_biscuits]

Wouldn't expect Israel to be worst in Europe having vaccinated...very woreying

But are people dying OF vaccines or WITH vaccines?

 

[mixed_biscuits]

Well, quite: the deaths within 28 days of being vaccinated are off the charts.

what point are you trying to make? that lots of people with pre-existing conditions, most of whom were most likely leading normal lives, were pushed over the edge and killed by COVID? if so, hasn't that been known for a long time, and a reason for caution? what's new here?

 

[Pandiculate]

what 80+ year old doesn't have a pre-existing condition

 

[mixed_biscuits]

I don't think people realise how undangerous this is for most of the population: it doesn't merit the pan of pandemic.

...and that's on top of the fact that those stats use the within-a-28-day criterion rather than anything rigorous

Uh, what? This is showing deaths within 28 days of being diagnosed with covid-19, right?

Why are you talking about people dying within 28 days of being vaccinated?

 

[mixed_biscuits]

@Mr. Tea what's good for the goose is good for the gander: deaths within 28 days of the vaccine is the equivalent of deaths within 28 days of a positive Covid test (which positive can itself be weeks after illness)
