Debunking Covid stupidity part one: Vaccines DO slow the spread

This is simple math. Let's take a look at an example using the Delta variant:

Vaccinated people are five times less likely to be infected with the Delta variant. This is a fact. If you don't accept it as fact, please skip posting here and pick up a book instead.

The R0 of Delta with no mitigation factors is somewhere around 5-7, let's go with five for this exercise:

https://academic.oup.com/jtm/article/28/7/taab124/6346388

Okay, now lets start. 200 people are exposed to a person the Delta variant, 100 are vaccinated, 100 are unvaccinated. Given the delta and the efficacy of the vaccines:

7 unvaccinated people will get the variant
2 vaccinated people will get the variant (I'm erring on the side of caution, it's actually less than two)

If the group had been 100 percent vaccinated, 3 people would have gotten the virus, instead of nine. Each iteration increases the infection exponentially. This is simple math. Three is less than nine. Therefore vaccines slow the spread. If enough people are vaccinated, and additional mitigation is used, the R0 will quickly drop below 1.

Any questions? If you are having trouble understanding, see the teacher for assignment to the remedial window licker class.
 
Thats nice. Then those who want to be vaccinated should do so,....those that do not should not. Constantly hammering people to death about it accomplishes NOTHING. Those who want to be jabbed have already done it. Those who do not NEVER will and all the hammering, cramming, begging, bitching moaning and insulting will not add one single soul to the vaccinated list. In fact it may even make those on the fence/leaning NO even less likely. But whatever makes you feel better I guess. Myself,....I am not into futile endeavors. They are merely a waste of everyone's time.
 
This forum is one of the few places left where misinformation and outright lies about the virus and the vaccines are allowed by management. I think that's why we see so many of the drooling Reichtards still pushing their bullshit. Thankfully they are only endangering themselves and the occasion credulous moron eager to believe them. Eventually almost every unvaxxed person is going to get COVID. The only question is whether they were get "lucky" and just get one of the milder variants, or will they pick up one of the more virulent strains. The only ones I feel sorry for are their family members they infect.

You miss the point. He's "hammering" about the misinformation being spread.

True. All the bitching and moaning will do it for them when they're hospitalized. ;)

rofl... and those "three people" infect others.
this isn't a numbers game and you cant stop the spread
so now goof balls like the author and fauci are saying "slow the spread"
of a wildly infectious virus designed by gain of function to be the most contagious virus around.

Put on a dozen masks, stay in your basement like Biden, and vax away.
It doesn't matter- those other "3 people" are still spreading

I guess you want it to spread at warp speed because fuck you that's why?

Remedial signups are on the right. Start with looking up the definitions of 'slow' and 'stop'

Smallpox vaccines were not 100% effective. Have you had smallpox?

Thanks.
 
I understand the dirtyness of politics more than a lot of people do in here IMO. Just how bottom of the barrel it REALLY is. For the most part politicians of all stripes are the scourge of mankind if you want to know the truth. The NUMBER ONE thing they want is to be re elected. There is not even a close second. It is for this reason that I can predict with just about 100% certainty that the pandemic will begin to wind down now. Maybe not totally end,....but certainly wind down and become much more livable. The politicians and their media lapdogs know that for the most part people are just about all pandemic'd out. They are done with lockdowns, done with a whole lot of things to the point that if this is all still pushed,....those who push will be ran out of DC on a rail. Just watch.......things will gradually wind down now,over the course of 22........whether they really are or not. Its all about perception ;)

i guess you are stuck on morning stupid as usual. learn epidemiology .. virus survive and thrive because they are so infectious.
Now look at COVID -which was designed to be infectious, and tell me why 3 people infected aren't going to quickly exponentially spread.

They will spread it SLOWER than nine will. You get that, right, dumbfuck?
 
Probably not. See how the teaching goes in special needs classes. It's hopeless.

Then WHY do people do it? Why do they engage in this constant SILLY futility? Are they just flat out STUPID or what? Or is it fun for them in some sick little sort of way? Either way,.....its all very stupid IMO.

The primary reason I'm here. To learn just how fucking stupid they are so I'm prepared when I meet them in the real world. And to hammer home the point that they don't give a fuck about anyone else, so I shouldn't give a fuck about them.
 
Stonehead, if you thought you were going to change minds here, you are dumber than I thought.

Who designed it? I can hardly wait to find out. :rofl2:
