My point is the Vax won't prevent you passing covid to grandma. Yes it will most likely prevent serious illness and for that reason alone you should get it but don't pretend it will stop the spread and that it's only the unvaxxed that are a health risk to the rest of us.Another straight out of the anti vaxxers playbook. Are you meaning this in numbers or proportionally? Clearly when 94% of the population is vaccinated, the sheer number of cases will weight to them. In every single metric we have ever been given, the unvaccinated are disproportionately weighted.

But if Grandma has a medical emergency she will be able to get timely and appropiate care if the health system isn't clogged up with unvaccinated people with serious Covid.My point is the Vax won't prevent you passing covid to grandma.

Anecdotally I can tell you that in Victoria the percentage of COVID patients in ICU infected with Delta ICU compared with Omicron is much higher than the percentage COVIF patients with delta in ward beds in hospital, which is in turn higher than the percentage of people delta infected vs Omicron not in hospital.I find the below very interesting. Tassie have 8,356 infected and no one in ICU. 18 in hospital.
I wonder if it’s because there is no Delta Covid in the State?
If so it looks promising that if Delta is phased out that we won’t get too many more needing hospital treatment in Victoria.
This is the thing that frustrates the *smile* out of me with anti-vaxxers: they either can't or won't grasp basic grade 6 maths concepts of probability and proportion. It ain't hard. Its like talking to a brick wall.ive heard some pretty smart health people, in some well credential forums, estimate that;
a vaccinated person is 8 times less likely to give someone else Covid than an unvaccinated person, and
a vaccinated person is 18 times less likely to need ICU because of Covid than an unvaccinated person.
of course, Facebook will offer other data interpretations,
just as taxis and pubs and hairdressers do.
here's an idea:
unvaccinated people needing intensive care could be intubated in hair salons, taxis and pubs?
this way, people will be able to film it and post it on facebook,
plus little drowned babies and car accident teenagers will be able to get some intensive care in a hospital.
It’s part of the ingenious nature of Covid. Besides it’s physical or pathological effect, it solicits or draws out the inherent stupidity that exists amongst many as well.This is the thing that frustrates the *smile* out of me with anti-vaxxers: they either can't or won't grasp basic grade 6 maths concepts of probability and proportion.

IndeedIn fact, it’s ability to prey on the mental and character deficiencies of humans may be it’s greatest strength.

Dr Liljeqvist said he warned members of government that the PCR-testing system would soon "not be able to cope" with Australia's growing case numbers and the government should quickly shift to rapid testing.
"Not only could [RAT supply issues] be predicted, it was predicted," Dr Liljeqvist said.
"I'm pretty confused because all we could see was a head-in-the-sand approach from government … I don't know why they protected the PCR-testing system for so long and it's been detrimental to us that that system was kept longer than it could cope."

That's what you get for hanging around anti-vaxxersThis thing is spreading like wildfire. Reckon the real figure is 5 to 10 times more than what is being reported. Most people I know has Covid in their household now.
Who leaked their conversation thoughI wish the news was like this every night. Bless Mike Amor & he's a Tiger supporter!
Trouble seems to follow Bec nowadays. I wonder if they'll get in trouble for it. Her return to Ch 7 news still looks a bit shaky IMO.Who leaked their conversation though
It's a fair question to ask. Notably they didn't say the Government has made a mess of it.Who leaked their conversation though
I'm coming around to thinking that we should deport him and highlight the liar and fraud that he isI wish the news was like this every night. Bless Mike Amor & he's a Tiger supporter!
Yep, that's a tactic they use.Nice straw man there.
Where did anyone say that being vaccinated "prevents" passing on the virus? Nowhere. Vaccines reduce the spread, it does not prevent it. But keep deliberately making arguments against claims which were never made, it just shows the weakness of your argument.
