HI zipperlip,

No, because the data shows 5.7m as fully vaccinated & 1.1m unvaccinated.

There's no trickery or mirrors, it's a simple table of data.

The Israel data is an example of the breakdown that's proving true all across the World. The data is also reflecting all of the trials & studies done prior to the release of the vaccines regarding protection against severe illness and death.

The vaccines work extremely well in protecting against severe illness and death.

The way I'm looking at it is... The vaccine is preparing my immune system for the inevitable initial infection I'll get. We will open up soon, we will all likely get the infection at some stage. I want my immune system to have some prior knowledge of how to recognise and fight the virus.

To me;

Vaccination > anti-bodies > breakthrough infection > less severe illness > more anti-bodies

Makes more sense than;

Infection > possibility of more severe illness (eg 8-10% hospitalisation rate) > anti-bodies

And as we progress through this and many other variants to come does the effectiveness of these jabs designed for the Alpha become less effective?

Was there ever any real chance of putting the C-19 genie back in the bottle?
Does anyone consider that a new variant will arrive that is worse than the original?
