"The incidence, hospitalization and mortality rates are higher in the higher age groups, particularly in the over-80s." -  < aria-expanded="false" aria-haspopup="menu" aria-label="More" role="" ="-175oi2r r-1777fci r-bt1l66 r-bztko3 r-lrvibr r-1loqt21 r-1ny4l3l" -testid="caret" ="" style="text-align: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-family: inherit; align-items: stretch; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid; border-color: black; display: flex; flex-basis: auto; flex-direction: column; flex-shrink: 0; list-style: none; margin: 0px; min-height: 20px; min-width: 0px; padding: 0px; : relative; : 0; overflow: ; justify-: center; cursor: pointer; outline-style: none; user-: none;"> Well worth a listen, simple straight forward measures could help reduce Covid reinfections, the last Govt completely ignored it & went for the it’s all gone away strategy.
By pretending it’s just an inconvenience like a cold that can be ignored will have long term implications. DJ, all humans make mistakes now and then...nobody is perfect...However "making wrong choices" again and again is "bad policy"... Vaccines-for now- do NOT stop CoViD. Non-sterilizing vaccines are supposed to limit disease...And in general-my non expert view- CoViD vaccines did limit disease.... However vaccines did not end the pandemic ! And -even vaccinated-catching CoViD over and over again does damage... Estimates go from 1-in-10 to 1-in-20 CoViD cases resulting in Long CoViD.... Since we have been in this CoViD crisis "only" 3 to 4 years (it started limited in 2019, major global waves only started in 2020) longer term damage has to show up.... Statistics indicate increase of excess deaths in many places from all kinds of health issues...At least part of those deaths will be indirect CoViD deaths.... Nature https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-024-03173-6 or https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-024-03173-6 ;The cumulative global incidence of long COVID is around 400 million individuals, which is estimated to have an annual economic impact of approximately $1 trillion—equivalent to about 1% of the global economy. DJ and we are NOT stopping CoViD..... At a certain point a "mistake" becomes "evil"...."Saving the economy/profits" at the costs of maybe up to 40 million CoViD deaths a form of genocide.... Wasting trillions on wars, defunding healthcare is criminal..... ----- DJ-For now it is not that clear what role immunity damage after CoViD infection plays in an increase of H5N1, Mpox etc. in humans.... Climate collapse-also NOT stopped- (and also a form of genocide killing millions) also worsens pandemics.... We need politics/"leaders" to work for humanity...not for "their donors only"....and time is running out !
