TimHauck 1,801 Posted December 15, 2021 8 minutes ago, TimmySmith said: You're gonna have to explain this one like we are 5. The pie chart is total cases (including vaxxed) and shows 98.3% have mild symptoms, but a majority of people are vaxxed and 93% of vaxxed have mild symptoms according to the quote. Combine the chart and the quote and WAY MORE % of vaxxed have severe symptoms. I was more referring to the bottom part. But the 93% is not "percent of people with symptoms," that's % effective, which means they have a 93% lower chance of having severe symptoms compared to an unvaccinated person.

It's strange how it can't barely bother some people yet kill others. Simply because there are tons of people walking around that are unhealthy and do not even know it. They never go to the doctor so they have no idea if the have HBP, diabetes, etc. There are some factors that are consistent. Fatties, 2+ comorbidities and low vitamin d3 levels.

Baker Boy 1,485 Posted December 15, 2021 4 hours ago, TimHauck said: False. Masks help by about ~10% according to the largest randomized trial done on them. They were never going to completely stop the spread, but they do help. The CDC reported that masks were1.5% effective. 2 hours ago, TimHauck said: The vaccine still works against infection, but not as well as against hospitalization/death. The effectiveness against infection (pre-Omicron) was in the neighborhood of 60-80%. So still pretty effective, but not going to stop it completely. Most of the deaths in the US have been unvaccinated, and this of course includes January/February when the people that were dying had been infected before the vaccine was available to anyone (about 1/3 of the deaths in 2021 were in January/February). Since March or so, Delta is another reason, which was more contagious and at least as deadly possibly moreso than earlier strains, but even still has killed largely the unvaccinated.

Big difference since that depends on compliance and doesn't apply to all situations. I wouldn't disagree that mask mandates in stores and such probably didn't do much, since the risk of catching covid if you're not there for an extended period are low to begin with. The graph showed that vaccinated people are dying at an extremely low rate. 57 minutes ago, RaiderHaters Revenge said: then whats the efficacy, I mean you think we would know if I get the vaxx what are the odds I never can get covid the answer to that is ZERO.

Vaccine efficacy is comparing to the risk of getting it if not vaccinated. So every time you are exposed, you have a 60-80% lower chance of getting it than someone that is not vaccinated. And keep in mind even unvaccinated/not previously infected people don't automatically get covid if they are exposed. So sure, if you are exposed to covid for an extended period on like 500 different occasions, yes, chances are you'll probably get it at some point even if vaccinated.
