Alberta Children's Hospital closes %75 of beds.

My two cents. Well its just numbers.
Probability of needing ICU if vaxed/unvaxed.
Probability of dying either way.
Probability of getting sick from vax.


Until it's you in the number.
Until you yourself have fought tooth and nail for health care this last year and a half. Only to have constant Covid related setbacks.

The largest number I see is % of seemingly normal people who go full retard anywhere near this subject.
It's not even that complicated.
It's a virus which mutates annually.
It's an annual booster.
It'll pass.
Herd immunity one way or the other.
But eventually I will have wished it would have just ripped through killing all vulnerable right away. To hell with numbers.
Perhaps if they'd of had internet in 1918 it would have lasted twice as long.

Blackpowder did you know there is a big difference between Moderna and Pfizer vaccine protection levels?

Here is why;

"Moderna’s shot contains 100 micrograms of vaccine, more than three times the 30 micrograms in the Pfizer shot."

Therefore:

..."Researchers from around the country found striking differences between two mRNA vaccines long thought to be interchangeable.

When the Moderna vaccine received emergency use authorization in December, the company reported that 30 people in its clinical trial developed severe cases of COVID-19, including nine who required hospitalization. All 30 patients were in the placebo group, resulting in a vaccine efficacy against severe disease of 100%.

Ten people in Pfizer's initial clinical trial developed severe cases of COVID-19. Nine of them were in the placebo group, including seven who were hospitalized, resulting in a vaccine efficacy against severe disease of 88.9%.

Once the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines were rolled out to the public, their records of preventing COVID-19 hospitalizations in the first four months were neck and neck — 93% and 91% effective, respectively. But the degree of protection diverged after that.

When they focused specifically on the period 120 days beyond the second dose, the study authors found that the Moderna vaccine remained 92% effective at preventing COVID-19 hospitalizations. But the equivalent figure for the Pfizer vaccine was 77%.

The results were published in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

Both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are based on mRNA technology, which delivers temporary instructions to the body’s muscle cells that help it learn to recognize the spike protein, a key part of the coronavirus’ structure. But “they're actually not necessarily interchangeable,” said Dr. Timothy Brewer, a professor of medicine and epidemiology at UCLA.

Each vaccine is formulated and administered differently, Brewer said, and those differences could affect the strength and duration of the two vaccines' protection.

Moderna’s shot contains 100 micrograms of vaccine, more than three times the 30 micrograms in the Pfizer shot. And Pfizer’s two doses are given three weeks apart, while Moderna’s two-shot regimen is administered with a four-week gap.

Brewer also pointed to evidence that the Moderna vaccine seemed to elicit higher levels of a key antibody than the Pfizer vaccine.

“We know from other studies the neutralizing antibody levels will decay over time, so starting at a higher level will mean that you have farther to go before you decay to a point where efficacy drops off,” he said.

Dr. Robert Murphy, who directs Northwestern University's Institute for Global Health, said the Pfizer vaccine's reduced protection against severe disease may bolster the case for boosters for all who got the vaccine, not just the specific groups identified by the FDA advisory panel."...

Too bad this info on protection from Covid-19 is not more readily available....

Hospitals are simultaneously claiming they are overwhelmed, while firing staff for not taking a vaccine, that they didnt have while working through the same pandemic that the vaccine is supposed to save them from.

Amazing times we live in.
