Here's your other chart, that pairs with this one:

Gotta get that. Gotta get 'em all. What a great name! Pastor Hooker! It is practically Dickensian, except Dickens would never be so vulgar.

Excellent! You should pair it with the antivaxxer one showing no vaccine versus vaccine, where it says "you can get COVID" in both columns. Yup, but it is much less likely. The last item is "you can die from the vaccine" in the right-hand column. Yup, but no one has died yet, from the mRNA ones. You can die from getting hit on the head with a meteorite too, but it hasn't happened as far as anyone knows. These people do not understand probabilities.

Someone at SAV created this: It is an excellent summary of the information here: https://ourworldindata.org/covid-deaths-by-vaccination

Yikes . . . Horrible. I forgot about that one. Probably willful forgetting. I would rather be dead than look like that. Out of all the crazy stuff on that page, this strikes me as the craziest. They think the tests are poisonous. One person says, "that's why I've never tested." I can understand thinking the vaccine is poison, but with the test, the only thing you put in your body is a swab up your nose for 30 seconds. Anyone can see it is clean. How could that hurt you?!? It makes no sense.

That's horrifying. But what is it? Is this person dead? From COVID?

Yes, individuals caved. Political appointees and the like caved. But the antivaxxer fellow maintains that every public health worker in the world caved. They all know the vaccine does not work, but they have been ordered to say it does, and they follow orders because they are afraid of losing their jobs. This is a comic book view of the world. The antivaxxer apparently never met a scientist, public health worker, or a doctor.

Definitely per week. The introductory paragraph at the top says: "To monitor rates of COVID-19 cases and deaths by vaccination status, data are reported from jurisdictions that can link case surveillance data to immunization registries and identify the vaccination status of people who test positive for COVID-19. The participating jurisdictions represent over 60% of the U.S. population and all regions of the country. This page displays an interactive figure showing overall weekly rates of COVID-19 cases and deaths among people ages 5 years and older by vaccination status and COVID-19 positive specimen collection date." Several other pages in this section say "per week" in the graph caption.

They allow dissenting opinions because this is a small part of larger group, and most of the discussion categories are conventional scientists where academic decorum is observed, so it observed here as well. Some typical exchanges today were with a person who claims that every single scientist in the CDC has been cowed into following orders and producing fake data. Quoting this person: "They all fallow the orders from higher up. just like any job." My response, which may amuse you: "Every one of them? Every single public health researcher, hospital, and nearly every doctor follows orders from higher up? I do not think you are acquainted with these people. It happens that I am. Some of my neighbors work at the CDC, and I have known scientists, researchers and doctors all of my life, starting with my late mother. Let me explain something to you -- These people seldom agree about anything. They never follow orders from above. Or below, or sideways. They don't follow orders at all. They ignore them. They are the most ungovernable people on earth. Trying to get them to do anything as a group is like herding cats. You can always find a scientist who disagrees with all the others. There are biologists who believe in creationism. There are doctors who think vaccinations do not work. However, if you examine the data, you will see that vaccinations do work. This data is not fake. It is not dictated from above. Even if it were dictated by nefarious powers in the U.S. to the CDC, those powers would have no way to dictate to the European, Japanese, Korean, Chinese or South American public health agencies. . . ." He came back again, a glutton for punishment: "They are paid to do what they do or no money.. Jed. unless they talk on the internet about what they see and we all know it gets deleted or worst most of the time." Me again: "Nope. Scientists and researchers are paid to do whatever the hell they want to do. They have tenure. If a high up muckety-muck were to start calling around telling them: 'I want to you change the data,' 99% of them would hang up, and 97% would go to the press and report that upper management was interfering in scientific research. That would be roughly as acceptable as if someone from upper management at MacDonald's were to go into a store, unzip his pants, and piss on the food and cooking areas. Or if a high official from Delta Airlines were to start pounding on the door to the cockpit on a plane in flight, demanding to be allowed to fly the plane. It is absolutely unthinkable. It would cause an instant brouhaha and denouncements by every professional in the business. It is inconceivable that any official in charge of the CDC or at any level of government would try to dictate to the scientists there. Even in an imaginary world where that might happen, the official would have no power to dictate to U.S. hospitals, or public health scientists in Japan or China, or hospitals in Chile. There is no reason why every single top official in the world would want to participate in a conspiracy to lie about vaccines. . . . Your notion is so far removed from reality, I am amazed you believe it. Apparently, you are extremely gullible and trusting and you believe any damn thing the anti-vaxxers tell you." . . . These people lack self-awareness. Their version of how scientists work comes from pot-boiler thrillers sold in airports.

10% is how I figure it. I often make mistakes doing arithmetic. I looked carefully and the 6 is definitely per 100,000 per week. It looks like around 6.3 to me. (Somewhere on this screen you can download the exact numbers . . . not sure where.) 30 years is 1565 weeks, so that's 9860 deaths per 100,000. ~10%. You have a whole new group of old people after 30 years. Nearly the entire population of 50+ people are dead after 30 years. But does that matter? The person who does not vaccinate is like a metal duck moving slowly across a carnival shooting gallery, where they shoot 1 in 300 ducks every year. Regardless of how many new ducks they add, and how many drop off the end, the overall population of 50+ people does not change much, and the unvaccinated person is a sitting duck target for 30 years, so I guess the chances of being hit are 1 in 10. Right? Someone should check my arithmetic. Anyway, it is stupid to risk severe illness or death for one year with 1 chance in 300 of death.

Apples would be a little too obvious even for the oblivious antivaxxers. But I am sure you can find plenty of stock photos of people with horrible blisters on their face. There is a hysterical photo of a smiling, half-dressed young woman on a hospital bed who supposedly suffered severe side effects from a COVID vaccine. She does not look like she suffered from anything. I don't know where to find it, but it is hilarious. You want to ask: "Really? Is that the best you antivaxxers can come up? You call that 'suffering'? She looks like she is at a lewd pajama party in a hospital." (Invoke Rule 34)

Wow. The Excel file from the ONS shows 98.5% of people age 80 and above are boosted. That leaves hardly anyone not boosted or not vaccinated. The population 85+ years old is 1.6 million: http://www.agediscrimination.info/current-uk-population Multiply by 1.5% gives 24,000 people. A very small data set. I expect only a small fraction of that is "not vaccinated." A few thousand? You cannot draw many conclusions from that. I'll bet they live in the middle of nowhere. They must be very healthy old geezers, or they would be dead from COVID. Very healthy or very lucky. Jeffery Morris wrote a number of papers taking a close look at the UK COVID statistics. Such as this one. He described some statistical anomalies caused by the small data set. https://www.covid-datascience.com/post/uk-death-data-artifacts-stragglers-who-delay-vaccine-doses-a-select-group-with-higher-death-risk

"The difference between the two groups is not statistically significant." Yes, it does seem to be within the error bars. The error bars for "Partially Vaccinated" group are longer than the ones for "Not Vaccinated." I suppose that is because there are not many 80-year-old British people who are only "Partially Vaccinated." It is a small data set, so it has a large margin of error. From what I have heard, just about every old person in the UK has been fully vaccinated. In Japan, NHK reported that 60% of population has been boosted. They are having a huge surge in infections. Obviously, breakthrough infections. That's the bad news. The good news is that deaths have hardly increased. In previous surges, deaths tracked total cases in the same ratio every time. Japanese people I know say the surge was probably caused by a recent 3-day weekend when many people went travelling all around the country -- as they did before 2020. I think it might be a little soon for that, but I can't judge. Most people are still wearing masks as far as I know. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/japan/

I do not know enough about medical science to judge. Perhaps this is a statistical anomaly? In that case it may be explained here: https://www.covid-datascience.com/

Yup. Large, flat lenses.

Fresnel lenses. (Ever the pedant.)

They have large print books in libraries. I am very tech savvy, but I have trouble operating small gadgets, because of some mild neurological problems. I have difficulty typing on a cell phone keyboard. My mp3 player has only a few controls. All large. Basically, the only control I use is start and stop. One big button on my player. I think the Best Buy one is the same.

A large print book? Books on tape with some simple playback device? I use an old .mp3 player, sorta like this: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sandisk-clip-jam-8gb-mp3-player-blue/4396004.p?skuId=4396004 Mine just plays music or audio books on tape. No pictures. No fancy controls. A large, simple keyboard like this is a plus.

I do not have the expertise to judge, but some articles I have read indicate that we can eradicate COVID. Or that it might go away on its own like the 1918 influenza. I believe that new mRNA vaccines could be modified quickly to target the latest variants. If these vaccines were quickly distributed worldwide, they might drive the virus into extinction. Apparently, the virus that infects people cannot lie dormant outside the body. A reservoir of it might live in some other species, such as bats or deer, and it might once again cross over to people, but perhaps it can be eliminated for now. The problem is that this would call for around 16 billion doses. Manufacturing and delivering would cost a lot of money. Nowhere near as much as living with COVID will cost, but governments are dollar smart and penny foolish, so they probably will not spend it. It would all have to paid for by first world countries. Russia and some other reject it. The GOP would do all they can to stop the U.S. from participating. I doubt that governments will eradicate COVID, but I think it is physically possible for them to do it. However, there is one scenario in which I am sure they would. If a more dangerous variant emerges, and it starts killing children and young adults even more than it now kills 80-year-olds. I am sure governments will do all they can to stop it, at any cost. Even the GOP would probably agree to stop it, after first blaming the Democrats for the new variant.
