From 8/25/21 through 1/5/22, Vermont’s COVID deaths rose from 273 to 482. This is 209 deaths.

In the same time, the state had 116 breakthrough (vaccinated) COVID deaths.

= 55.5% of COVID deaths in those 4+ months were among the vaccinated.
One retort to the above data is “look how few COVID deaths VT has.” True, but that was the case even before C19 vaccination. What’s more, 43.2% of all COVID deaths in the state since the start, happened in the last 4+ months and more than half of those are among the vaccinated.
Another retort is, “well, 85% of VT above the age of 5 is vaccinated so making up 55.5% of deaths shows it works.”

It works for a while, but the sell was get jabbed and done. Not “get a booster within 5 months of jabs and make up 55% of an elevated number of deaths.”
My point? A jab/mask-only policy falls short especially that talk of a second booster (a mere year after people got the first shot) is abound. You can’t practically vaccinate so many people in such a short time so focus on other stuff too. Fauci in 2019:
5/5 Finally, among 280 or so tweets or retweets by @CDCgov in December 2021, none gave health/self-care guidance what to do once infected to maybe help alleviate the issue beyond just sitting at home waiting for things to get better or worse.

Most tweets were about jabs/masks.

Hi @Bob_Wachter. You shouldn’t feel guilty about someone getting COVID when more than 146 mill in the US already had it according to the CDC.

Maybe feel guilty for spreading the illusion that people can prevent COVID’s spread (while living a sane life).

cdc.gov/coronavirus/20…
A lead doctor went on a 25-tweet sad thread about his 28 year old triple vaccinated son getting COVID and having mild symptoms.

There are 846 COVID deaths in that age group among 800K+ COVID deaths.

Also, 14,065 in that age died of all causes in the same time.
This isn’t about one father’s personal experience.

This is about a lead doctor in Cali being totally detached from overall threats and illnesses potentially impacting his 28 year old son and where COVID fits into that dynamic.

These freak-meisters shape public policy.

Nuts.

Um, 1.03% of children deaths in the US the last two years are with COVID-19, and children make up under a tenth of a percent of COVID deaths in the US.

Justices and those arguing cases in court R clueless of some basic facts surrounding COVID-19.

No wonder the garbage rulings. Image
Her clown assumption is that everyone spews COVID; that being vaccinated means not spewing, and that a virus with a survival rate in the 99% range is the same as sparks which can ignite fires in most cases. She would run if sparks spewed in Court; not if someone there has COVID. Image
Tweeting facts here won’t matter in court if judges are exposed to fact-less media intake for 22 months, and if CLOWN attorneys don’t first and most focus on basic documented, up-to-date facts.

Have a great weekend all.

In the summer of 2020, the life of a POTUS was endangered by lefty rioters so much so that he and family were rushed to the bunker.

If not for the Secret Service there (60 agents were wounded), it could have been a successful insurrection.

It was treated as a big joke.
The point above is that a mass trespassing event inflamed by trigger-happy cops doesn’t deserve any attention beyond understanding why PD was this brutal and why civil rights of political dissidents are getting crushed with impunity since then.

#PutinsAmerica.
It was a joke when POTUS Trump was bunkered due to political violence in 2020 that left 60+ USSS agents/officers wounded. I am not adapting any crazy language about a mass trespassing event that had barricade pushers and some who instinctively reacted to a brutal crackdown by PD.

The minute you call it a “violent terrorist attack on the capitol,” you lose most of your standing when complaining about the DOJ, Dems and Media because they have diff views than you how to handle a “violent terrorist attack on the capitol.”

cc @ColumbiaBugle @KurtSchlichter
That is @tedcruz.

Cruz, the “fighter.”

He called now Jan 6th “a violent terrorist attack on the capitol.”

Hahaha.

GOP - Group of Putzes.

It’s not @LeaderMcConnell or @GOPLeader. It’s the fabric of the party.

cc @Cernovich @julie_kelly2
He didn’t mention BLM or the insurrection at the WH last year that forced a POTUS into the bunker and wounded 60 USSS staff.

The GOP is a systemic clown show.

1/ Crazies told me 14 day lockdowns are insane. Current rule: 5 days are cool.

Crazies told me that asymptomatic people are not the main factor of spread. Current rule: Infected asymptomatic people can rock and roll
2/ Crazies told me there are false/immaterial positives with COVID-19. Current rule: No need for a negative test at the end of isolation because positives can show up as long as 12 weeks after infection.
3/ Crazies told me that we need to consider other factors of society during COVID-19. Current Fauci stance: Yes, that’s what we need to do which is why we cut the isolation time.

CDC data.

From Feb 2020 through Sept 2021 in the US among all ages there were 44,650 COVID cases per 100,000 people in the population and 280.7 deaths among those cases.

This is a death rate of 0.62% and is 6 times worse than the flu’s usual 0.1% fatality rate.
2/ COVID’s death rate is on an illness where people were told to wait it out at home except if they needed the hospital.

Do this for the flu and I doubt that its death rate will remain at 0.1% of cases.

Absent such COVID rules, who knows how lower COVID’s rate may have been.
3/ I am bringing this up because lockdowns were made in March 2020 with the assumption that COVID’s death rate is 1.0% - 3.0% of cases which would be 10-30 times worse than the flu. Yet the CDC’s data puts it at 6 x worse than the flu (despite the panicked changes to healthcare).
