I didn’t actually. I said that the unvaccinated are the most vulnerable and they are. Especially true when you when you compare two otherwise near identical people whether that be 2 healthy 16 year olds or 2 unhealthy 65 year olds. Whoever isn’t vaccinated is more vulnerable than their comparable vaccinated and therefore by default the most vulnerable. It’s not a difficult concept.
Nobody is saying there will be zero hospitalisations. Its simple maths, lower percentage hospitalised but increased transmission can still lead to increased hospitalisations overall.
Boosters are based on something that has been scientifically researched and tested and given in a measured dose. Its much less of an unknown that relying on immunity from prior infection. There's a lag of infections > hospitalisations > icu > deaths. We can't just decide to make it a free for all now and if things get worse revenuers the decision, by the time we know we're screwed it would be too late. Better to be slow and steady and not risk getting ourselves into a very dangerous position.
Tbf who are uselesz, same people went in the china afyer it first came out and claimed it wasn't spreading from human to human, they took a bribe from china.Nobody is saying there will be zero hospitalisations. Its simple maths, lower percentage hospitalised but increased transmission can still lead to increased hospitalisations overall.
And not everyone agrees with describing it as mild. This quote from WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus for exampleCOVID-19: Omicron may be more infectious - but do we need to worry if it causes less severe disease?
If Omicron turns out to become the dominant variant but causes less severe disease, could that be good news? Sky News explains why that's probably not the case.news.sky.com

No one can take you seriously when you say stuff like that.
I didn't realise Brass Eye had had a revival.
Good to see the proof of being a really empathetic person is going well...

'Crisis actor' conspiracy theory: How anti-vax activists targeted a Covid patient
Henry Dyne was ill with Covid, but online his story was twisted by anti-vaccine activists.
Scumbags.
You can’t catch obesity by coming into contact with an obese person.
You have to take it with an almighty pinch of salt and laugh at it. Like watching Hollyoaks.
No, you talk bollocks for imaginary Internet points.
Frankly the data is all that matters, real world experience will always pick up the exceptions.
Nice to see that people being genuinely hurt and upset by some of the internet point winning bullshit being pedalled, now comes under 'playing the offensive card' too. That empathy is in full swing!
Can you explain how locking away obese people would help the NHS?
Have you got data for the rate of fully vaccinated obese people in hospital and ICU compared to non-obese people? I've looked for this data more than once and can't find it.
Like the 18 year old that Grendel posted who died. The brothers were massive prior to them getting Covid. Earlier access to the vaccine may have saved his life but not being obese at 18, and the knock on effects that has on the body, would have also significantly improved his chances of both surviving Covid as well as the plethora of health issues he would likely have had in later life without significant lifestyle changes.
There's also a get fit, lose weight thread on here to help people. That's got to be better than coming up with some loose, tangential leap to justify preconceived wishes about a pandemic.
Not at all, I am sure I liked the video Nick posted and absolutely agree it would be better for the NHS if there were less obesity. Obviously better for myself too. It's the 'lock em all up' part I think is hilarious bollocks. Especially coming from someone who compared the differential treatment of unvaccinated people in Austria to the holocaust.
