    You didn't need to do any math.

    There's a chart right in the article that shows it's very effective:

    I'm one of those unvaccinated adults. The risk of hospitalisation is ten times higher for adults over age 50.

    And your risk of ICU and death is even higher

    Why no vax?

    Well, anyone who picks one media outlet and trusts that is certainly an idiot.

    The real question is to how to go about getting the best information.

    It's too bad our government is stopping the use of Ivermectin on the Omicron infected.

    You’ll never get a general consensus about the best information/sources as this country is too damn polarized.

    Remember when CDC Nancy Messonier publicly declared that Covid outbreaks in the US. are now inevitable.

    Next day, and in an effort to calm the markets, Trump’s 15 cases going down to zero.

    Well, back then, who had the best information?

    According to the right-wing media, certainly not Messonier, because “She’s a Rosenstein”, and “she’s trying to sabotage Trump’s baby economy”

    True, and to an unbelievable extent.

    We'll take our friends and families dying of COVID over working together to defend America.

    The relative risk (RR) is 0.1667, so it's more like 83% effective. Which seems pretty good for something as harmless as the covid vaccine. NNT will depend on the hospitalization rate, but the RR can be calculated from the info you provided with any inputs that follow the rules of 90% vaccinated with 60% of cases, and 10% unvaccinated with 40% of cases.

    When you post a meme you really should make sure it cuts and deletes everything that goes against what you are trying to promote.

    Strange.....

    UK’s Omicron highest Daily Cases 7-Day Rolling Average; 188,837.......Per 1M Pop; 2,758

    USA Omicron highest Daily Cases 7-Day Rolling Average; 791,120.......Per 1M Pop; 2,367

    UK’s Omicron highest Daily Deaths 7-Day Rolling Average; 270.........Per 1M Pop; 3.94

    USA Omicron highest Daily Deaths 7-Day Rolling Average: 2,467.......Per 1M Pop; 7.98

    Source; Worldometer

    WAIT A MINUTE, per capita, Omicron infected more British than Americans, and yet, per capita, near twice as many Americans are dying.

    Very strange indeed.

    Question; Do the Daily Mail lovers have an explanation?

    Note; The answer from the Daily Mail lovers will certainly not be; (due to UK’s vaccination rates)
