    You can if you look. I'm sure this wont do either... but here goes...


    Vaccine effectiveness findings include:

    • Two doses prevent about 95% of COVID-19 hospitalizations. Preventing serious outcomes is the main goal of the vaccine program.
    • Two doses of either mRNA vaccine was more than 90% at preventing COVID-19 infection. Two doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine were more than 70% effective against infection. People who got one AstraZeneca dose followed by one mRNA vaccine dose (so-called “mix and match”) had protection that was as good as with two mRNA doses.
    • The vaccines are working similarly well in protecting against infections and hospitalizations due to the Delta variant, despite being more transmissible than other variants.
    • Vaccine protection was stronger when people received their second dose more than six weeks after their first dose.
    • No signs of waning: Vaccines are providing strong protection of more than 80 to 90 per cent has been maintained at least four months after the second dose.

    That's nice and all. It's still not the data I asked for. Ateast not without the source known, and you still are unable to show any data.
    So once more. Where is the data that both defines and tracks long term problems with Covid and how it's less with the vaccine.

    People are getting nailed left and right for no vaccines. I'm local so I don't really care but I think it's definitely not going to put a dent in the supply chain. There will be a bunch more new Canadians waiting in line to fill your spot.

    Whatever your position is on the vaccines, firing people for not receiving a vaccine for a virus that has a super high survivability rate is a very scary thing. I wonder if there will be an uptake in local work because of it.

    So that's not data. That's their "findings" from data. Which is subject to bias. Also that's old findings from the original short term data. That's why they currently have a booster. Because they were wrong with the findings.

    But let's stop knit picking the numbers on either side of the debate. They really don't matter. As I posted in another thread this morning. Compare the vaccine to taking vitamin C. Neither can give you immunity. Like a traditional vaccine. Both can help your body to some degree fight the flu. The difference? One is being forced on you by the guberment. The other only encouraged.

    Whats a traditional vaccine? This article is dated Nov.3.
    Comparing the COVID-19 Vaccines: How Are They Different?
    You arent qualified to make any judgement on findings by anyone. Especially since you cant provide anything credible to counter the general consensus of all current info. Even if one credible organization uses info from another doesnt mean they dont hold it to be true.
    You must be getting your info from “Americas front line doctors”. A scam organization profiting off selling quack cures to easily fooled people. The only people who have a vested interest in lying are those like Americas front line doctors, they are making money on spreading mis info. Canada has a few quack doctors who are in the process of losing their medical licenses, good riddance.

    That's from the CDC web site. As I thought, not good enough. Have a great day.
