By 35 and again by 50 your risk of death's increased. By 60 you're already seeing a disproportionately large amount of deaths.

Interesting how the Latino population in Age \ Deaths doesn't increase with age like the other populations What you said only applies to Latinos

> What you said only applies to Latinos

No. What I said applies to all cohorts. Take a look at the bar chart entitled "Percentage of deaths vs. population". That's not broken out by race or gender, only by age.

Below 35 deaths are underrepresented. When you hit 35+ the inner bar (percentage of deaths) becomes a larger part of the outer bar (percentage of total population), by 50 it's nearly equal, and for 60+ deaths are overrepresented.

As someone who was trying to conceive while the vaccine rolled out, this isn’t surprising. People were regularly reporting basal temperature spikes, delayed ovulation, and delayed periods. This is a community that is extremely data-oriented, since with the right measurements you’re able to predict your fertile (or non-fertile) window. I was disappointed to see how little research there was into menstruation at the ti…

Many people had concerns about the vaccine rollout. Not because we were worried about some 5G nanoparticle Bill Gates conspiracy nonsense but because of the potential unknown side effects. Doing a trial on a few hundred thousand and then rolling out to billions is like testing your changes locally and then pushing them straight to production. "But human bodies are not anything like software dev" I hear you say. You'r…

What if you know that prod has a huge vulnerability actively being exploited. Will you wait for the QA to finish manual testing of the UI, or push the solution ASAP after the CICD pipeline turns green?

Still not a good analogy, but perhaps closer to the case.

Here in Canada, 97.2% of deaths are in 50+. https://i.imgur.com/dlDhdix.png Source: https://health-infobase.canada.ca/covid-19/ Here's how the Ontario's hospitalization and death rate looks based on age and vax status in the 4 month period: https://imgur.com/a/UswEidp Source: https://www.publichealthontario.ca/-/media/documents/ncov/ep...

Mishandle? They got the vaccine rolled out by August and September to start production. One of the few things Trump did correctly was the early pandemic handling while the cries of "stop travel from China" was called racist and unnecessary. There was nothing else that could have been done except fire the head of the CDC after their flip flop politics instead of science.

Not deliberately dancing on calling it a hoax vs taking proper action would have helped tremendously.

I have taken more vaccines than vast majority of the population due to my immigration status. Just because someone is criticizing the pros and cons of a medicine doesn't make them anti-vax. You are engaging in an ad hominem attack without knowing anything about me.

This study began in April 2021 and the paper was published in July 2022. Presuming that the amount of time spent was necessary to thoroughly gather, review and document the findings, what would you have wanted done differently?

Not taken the vax if your health and age profile didn't merit it, given the unknown unknowns and lack of long term testing, which many people highlighted endlessly for the past year or so. Public concessions exactly to your point that long term testing takes time , and assertions to the contrary that tere are no risks of x, y, z were blatant sophistry intended to silence legitimate criticism. These vaccines were mand…

Unknown unknowns are also true of covid. We are only beginning to see and document the effects of long covid.

I work in healthcare and life sciences, I am vaxed, and I can say I fully believe you are correct. I have to attest and show my vax cards to keep my job or get a new one and - of all things - we had to show vax cards to go to a behind the scene animal encounter at a zoo. Does the vaccinne stop us from catching it or from giving it to others? There is no evidence, yet, that it does. Am I having to weasel word my post…

With all due respect, not knowing your exact position, working in healthcare may not be more relevant to the topic the same way an average software dev would have a hard time fixing a deep-lying race condition in the database software.

Healthcare is a huge field, an orthopedic surgeon’s opinion for example should hardly matter over that of a virologist.

"Trust the science" when there isn't any public study or experiment really means "trust the conjecture" but that's not so great for PR.

After it already went endemic, and the transmissiblity went through the roof. Not sure why that is hard to understand. If this virus killed 95% of people would you be arguing against lockdowns? I think most people can agree that its one of those to little to late situations in china and they need to reconsider at this point, but that doesn't make what they are trying to do wrong.

>If this virus killed 95% of people would you be arguing against lockdowns? This is the dumbest argument I've ever seen made on here. If it killed 95% of people, no sane person would be arguing because it becomes obvious that you are in danger. If 1.1% of the population dies and you don't have any of the health risks coinciding with mortality from the virus, then you have little reason to put your life on hold, unles…

> But you do you, is the point I've never understood this type of selfishness. If you get sick you will, on average, infect another 2-3 people. It's not just about you.

The R number has never been that high, where did you get it from? If it were "2-3 people", every variant, except maybe the latest, would have infected every person on earth by now.

The R number depends on social practices as well. It was higher before lockdowns, but with masks and the eventual vaccine it got reduced to the 1-2 range, and later below 1. Or at least danced around that number depending on whether the lockdown was suspended temporarily or not.
