    Based on the Israel experience the vaccines are very effective at eliminating serious health effects even of the variants. Just need jabs in arms at this point, that's the only thing that matters.

    even with the new variants/cases, the hospitalization rates are flattened out and the death rate has dropped to nil - was expecting the opposite.
    why? this is exactly what a number of us predicted in this thread months ago.

    Death rates will crash as the most vulnerable get vaccinated, and cases climb as people no longer feel a moral obligation to protect the elderly.

    Case numbers are rapidly becoming meaningless. Or sorta rapidly.

    you dont have the numbers to show proof that - at our pathetic low levels of vaccinations, anything statistically meaningful has happened with them affecting this outcome.

    Had our province been 70% double vaccinated, sure - the data is pretty strong at that point.

    Whats happening here is herd immunity.

    I think the percentage of people who were likely to drop dead from the virus, but who now have had at least 1 dose of the vaccine, is pretty high. Isn't it?

    very high, which is why death rates are basically approaching zero.

    Yup. It’s only younger people that are still working keeping everything open. Fat people and boomers order groceries for curb side pickup while the teenagers deliver.

    case numbers were virtually meaningless 9 months ago.

    The latest marketing from The Nordic Spa in Kananaskis is mind bogglingly stupid. That place is for sure going to get people sick. But hey, their choice to go there, my tax dollars to have them in ICU
    Yeah I would not be surprised at all if that place is the source of an outbreak. I get that businesses are trying to find any way possible to make money, but the current rules are ridiculously dumb.

    At my wife's hospital their ICU cases increased from 5 to 27 over the last little while. Apparently most of the COVID cases they are seeing now are the UK variant.

    Interesting that all news is “younger Canadians showing up in icu/hospitals” but not much more detail, @Buster any more actual studies showing statistically significant hospitalization related cases for variants?

    The only statistically relevant thing we should see with these variants, is that as they become a greater percentage of public covid cases, they will become a greater percentage of ICU cases as well.

    Proportionally I agree, I’m more interested in whether icu/hospitalizations actually increase if the most vulnerable populations are vaccinated. If those numbers don’t spike, then it’s a waiting game but I’m trying to sort out once again if there is data to support the latest variant concerns for “healthy” younger patients.

    Churches need to start paying taxes. I suggest we start with the wacko Polish ones.
