🚨 🚨 🚨 “694 people were being treated in Israeli hospitals for the virus, among them 400 in serious condition, with 64% of those patients defined as serious cases being fully vaccinated.”

“Israel kicks off third shot COVID vaccination campaign among 50+.”

🚨 🚨 🚨 🚨 🚨 NYT reports that the Biden Admin will recommend that people should take another Coronavirus vaccine shot 8 months after taking the first. This is not a shock for those who follow this thread which shows that vaccine efficiency is falling off a cliff over time.

🚨 🚨 🚨 A statement today on the FDA website suggests that boosters are not yet needed for $JNJ simply because those shots were rolled out later than $PFE and $MRNA so its effectiveness holds. But the need of boosters for J&J vaccine recipients is anticipated by the FDA.

🚨 🚨 🚨 @CDCDirector on 8/18/21: “Reports from our international colleagues… suggest increased risk of severe diseases among those vaccinated early… We are concerned that the current strong protection against… hospitalization and death could decrease in the months ahead.”

🔥 🔥 🔥 UK gov data:

Of the 5.2 million people who had Coronavirus since the start of the outbreak, 0.675% (35,124 people) are “possible reinfections.”

Source: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/upl…

The 0.67% rate mirrors NYC where 1.1% cases this year through mid-July are reinfections.

🚨 🚨 🚨 From CDC 8/20/21:

“People with an increased risk of severe illness should also avoid travel on cruise ships…. REGARDLESS OF VACCINATION STATUS.”

Those who cruise should get tested 1–3 days B4 their trip and 3–5 days after their trip REGARDLESS OF VACCINATION STATUS.”

🚨🚨🚨🚨Israel to void vax passes for those who fail to take the Coronavirus vaccine booster.

🚨🚨🚨🚨New vax pass to be valid for only 6 months.

🚨🚨🚨🚨Current 7-day average of Coronavirus deaths in highly-vaccinated Israel mirrors the average of the same date last year.

FLASHBACK to MAY 2021: @CDCDirector “If you are vaccinated against #COVID19, you are safe. The vaccines work. You can take off your mask & are not at risk of severe disease or hospitalization.”

🚨 🚨 🚨

“Among people hospitalized for the virus in the Pittsburgh region, the percentage who have been fully vaccinated ranges between 7% and 40%, doctors say, depending on the time period measured.” - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 8/30/21

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

“Given that that the virus is here and will continue to be here, we also need to prepare for a FOURTH injection.” - Salman Zarka, Israeli’s Virus Czar said on 9/4/21.

Note that Israel pushed the booster earlier than most countries.

timesofisrael.com/virus-czar-cal…

Fauci on 9/5/21 on the need for boosters:

“What we're observing now, not only here in the US but in other countries… [is] that the durability of the protection tends to wane, particularly in the context of the Delta.”

Yet, people claim there are almost no breakthrough cases.🥱

99.3% US Coronavirus deaths are among adults.

99.2% US children deaths the last 18 months is NOT Coronavirus.

Study: unvaccinated kids are lower risk of death than fully vaccinated adults.

Study: “Teenage boys more at risk from vaccines than Covid.”

💥 💥💥BREAKING: 18 months into Coronavirus hitting the US, Dr. Fauci admits that he has “no firm answer on how durable natural immunity is… That is something that we will need to sit down and discuss.”

Unclear why his agency did not collect such data all along.

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 Leading @pfizer executive is reportedly seen saying at a zoom conference that whatever is happening in Israel is almost a clear predictor what will happen in the US a few months later. (This segment has English CC. The relevant video in English is there).

Explosive!

🚨 🚨 🚨 🚨 🚨

The State of CT is reporting that 31.2% of its current Coronaviurs cases and 27.7% of its current Coronaviurs hospitalizations are FULLY VACCINATED.

Link: data.ct.gov/stories/s/COVI…

FYI: Biden exempts vaccinated employees from tests and NYC has vaxx passes.

🚨 🚨 🚨 57% of Breakthrough cases in VT since the start of vaccinations happened in the last four weeks of available data; and it’s getting worse by the week.

The state had 33 breakthrough deaths which is 10.2% of the state’s COVID-19 deaths since start of the outbreak.

VT does not share breakthrough (vaccinated) deaths per week; only cases.

With most such cases happening in recent weeks then so did most such deaths. State has 33 such deaths most of it in a period that the state lost 50 to COVID.

Point? Most recent COVID deaths R breakthrough!

🚨 🚨🚨Data from the UK: Recently, vaccinated people above the age of 40 were more likely to be infected with Coronavirus than the unvaccinated this age.

Again: COVID-19 was higher among vaccinated people above the age of 40 than among the unvaccinated in the same age group.

🤷🏼‍♂️

🚨 🚨 🚨 Vaccine effectiveness on Delta was 93% after the first month; slightly below the 97% for other variants. The explosion of cases/deaths in recent month is therefore mostly due to waning vaccine efficiency and not because Delta’s alleged (and repeated-as-fact) severity.

🚨🚨🚨

Most Recent Critically-Ill COVID Cases in Israel:

71% unvaccinated

17% double vaccinated

7% triple vaccinated

3% recovered patients reinfected

(Amount of people boosted is more than double the amount who already had Coronavirus so the 7% and 3% are the same rate.)

UK Data: 0.76% Coronavirus cases since the start of the outbreak are possible reinfections (people who had a confirmed case at least 90 days ago or more and had it again).

Unlike Fauci who claimed on CNN weeks ago not to have such data, the UK updates it weekly to the public.

🚨 🚨🚨🚨🚨

9/8/21 through 10/6/21, VT added 45 Coronavirus deaths (World Meters).

In same time, VT added 29 Breakthrough deaths (state website).

= 64% recent VT deaths are breakthroughs.

Oct Link: healthvermont.gov/sites/default/…

Through August 11th, VT had 10 breksthrough deaths in total. Its latest report has it at 47.

82% breakthrough deaths happened in the last 2 months, and recent such deaths are a majority of VT’s recent overall Coronavirus deaths.

#COVIDBooster.
