Yes, but weren't we discussing whether the vaccine was effective against hospitalization and death - it manifestly is notI’m not questioning the numbers at all, I’m questioning the conclusions you’re drawing from them. What I’m reading is that 90% of the cases are unvaccinated, but you’re saying that doesn’t matter because once you get it the chances of a bad outcome hold steady across both options. If that’s true, then it ABSOLUTELY matters. If I get this virus, I have the same chances of dying from it, regardless of vaccination status. Option A gives you a >90% chance of having to roll those dice, and Option B gives you <10% chance of rolling those dice. I know which option I’m choosing.
At your age, I didn't think you controlled direction, I thought it was involuntary.
I really don’t know what you’re actually discussing anymore. I’ll point you back to your own link that clearly spelled it out.Yes, but weren't we discussing whether the vaccine was effective against hospitalization and death - it manifestly is not
I have had this discussion with people before. There are more cars on the road than motorcycles, and more fatal accidents involving cars than motorcycles
Does that mean that it is statistically safer to drive a motorcycle, or do you consider what percentage of motorcycle accidents result in death and compare that to what percentage of automobile accidents result in death to make that judgement
Airline accidents are very rare, but have a very high percentage of fatalities when they do occur. Does that mean driving is safer?
It can be directed, but you can't trust 'em.At your age, I didn't think you controlled direction, I thought it was involuntary.
It's the BPH. He works so hard to squeeze things out that the exhaust stroke jumps its timingAt your age, I didn't think you controlled direction, I thought it was involuntary.
What I'm discussing are the relative rates of hospitalization and death among the two groups. They are essentially the same. The aggregate size of each group does not affect the rate of a given outcome's occurrence. That is why percentages or particular outcome per thousand etc are used for comparison. After all, percentage is just particular outcome/100I really don’t know what you’re actually discussing anymore. I’ll point you back to your own link that clearly spelled it out.
That’s a little clearer. It seems to me like you’re trying to squint your eyes, stick out your tongue, and raise your foot juuuust right to see the data in a certain way. I’m looking at it much more directly: 45% of the population is making up 90% of the problem.What I'm discussing are the relative rates of hospitalization and death among the two groups.

Pareto Principle?Yeah, fuzzy math. The Maryland data shows 85% vaccinated responsible for 40% of present death rate. That means 15% of the unvaccinated represent 60% of the present death rate. That is not a stellar endorsement for going commando.
If anyone is interested...which I sense no one is....
In order for those numbers to mean anything, one has to know the relative vaccination rates for the people who, by age or preexisting condition, were more likely to die from Covid...and a lot more data points
Dr. Robert Redfield just told @MarthaMacCallum on @Foxnews that 40% of the recent Covid deaths in the state of Maryland were among people who are fully vaccinated. Redfield says this under scores the importance of maintaining a high level of immunity.
Vaxx | Un-Vaxx | |
Population | 3970057 | 2095379 |
Deaths | 256 | 385 |
Percentage | 0.00645% | 0.01837% |
So by those numbers, there were 129 fewer deaths in a population 1.9M higher. Adjusted, that’s 3 times more likely to die if you’re unvaccinated.Data galore here if you're into digging in... https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailydeaths
I agree, the statistics of cases versus population versus etc would give a more complete understanding of what he is talking.
I believe the point he's making is that the vaccine has waning efficacy, based on this snip from the article. So, I would assume from this, he's saying that the 40% number is an increase in the rate of death among the vaccinated.
Here are the gross numbers I could find...

Lolz. Returning to my other exampleThat’s a little clearer. It seems to me like you’re trying to squint your eyes, stick out your tongue, and raise your foot juuuust right to see the data in a certain way. I’m looking at it much more directly: 45% of the population is making up 90% of the problem.
Also, the Scotland data does a great job of getting into rates and giving weight to certain groups. The outcome was the same.
See above.Lolz. Returning to my other example
Using 2017, which is the most recent year I can find all statistics for
There were 37473 fatalities in auto accidents and 5172 fatalities in motorcycle accidents
OMG, traveling by car is 7.25x more dangerous than traveling by motorcycle
See, periodSee above.
Sure. Even those numbers seem to show the death rate of the unvaccinated almost 3 times that of the vaccinated. But I think that it has to be stratified more to take into account the populations most likely to die. What I mean by this is that healthy people under 50 are very unlikely to die regardless of vax status. If we take a population- wide look, we see the vaccinated are less likely to die, but if we narrow the focus to the populations most likely to die due to age and preexisting conditions, I think the difference is even more stark and for that population the vax advantage is much higher.Data galore here if you're into digging in... https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailydeaths

Is that a good live event? I've never gone to anything other than local stuff.See above.
By the way, I like Columbus. We go there every year for the Arnold, when your governor doesn’t cancel it.
