I think the medical establishment and the media have failed in reporting the performance of the vaccines. Sinovac has proved to be 100% effective in preventing hospitalizations and death, as have all the 1st seven vaccines: https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2021/02/12/all-covid-vaccines-stop-death-severe-illness-column/6709455002/ "All seven COVID-19 vaccines that have completed large efficacy trials — Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, Novavax, AstraZeneca, Sputnik V and Sinovac — appear to be 100% effective for serious complications. Not one vaccinated person has gotten sick enough to require hospitalization. Not a single vaccinated person has died of COVID-19." Also, the term efficacy has not been well explained. An efficacy of 50% means that half as many people came down with symptomatic COVID compared to the number of people who became symptomatic in the placebo group. This means a vaccinated person's chance of coming down with symptomatic COVID is cut in half compared to the unvaccinated. What it does not mean is that 50% of the vaccinated group became symptomatic; which I think many people have wrongly concluded. There's no transparency for the Chinese jab. Who knows what's going on with it. The data from their clinical trials hasn't been published. But like they say, it's better than no jab. We're lucky here in Thailand. No way I'd want to be in the US. The country with the most covid cases and deaths. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheesh, double whammy. We are so lucky to be in Thailand. Tell 'em. No one in the US has been forced to take the vax. OTOH, YOU will likely be forced if you want to stay there. ????

Stopped flying before 9/11 as I could sense things were changing for the worse. Flight attendants getting surly.. and other theories I'll leave out.

So you're comment about not having your travel restricted is more or less pointless. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XBroker Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I'm wondering where people get this 500,000 number from. The death rate in the US for 2020 is actually slightly less than it was for 2019; but don't let facts cloud your judgement. I would think people would be happy there, supposedly living their 'dream'...? I'm not seeing it. Whenever I come on here it's like that scene out of midnight express where the prisoners get mad bc the guy is circling the cube in the wrong direction. If you want to be a conformist to MSM narratives, be that. Doesn't mean the rest of us have to. I've traveled to other states and not been bothered when I don't wear a face diaper...

I would think people would be happy there, supposedly living their 'dream'...? I'm not seeing it. Where do you get your nonsense from? Here's some info straight from the CDC: Figure Notes: Number of deaths reported on this page are the total number of deaths received and coded as of the date of analysis and do not represent all deaths that occurred in that period. Data are incomplete because of the lag in time between when the death occurred and when the death certificate is completed, submitted to NCHS and processed for reporting purposes. This delay can range from 1 week to 8 weeks or more, depending on the jurisdiction and cause of death.
