[W:233] Virtually all hospitalized Covid patients have one thing in common

Big Eye said:
We’re at that point in the U.K. …just about to unlock a bit more…and now the Delta variant is taking off ( very few deaths though). This thing is unending…people have to decide when enough is enough and we learn to live with this thing without it destroying our way of life and also destroying our health care systems ( the nhs has become the ncs). Vaccinating kids is a step too far…once you do that for something which is only a small risk to someone else, you have crossed the rubicon.

The aim is to eliminate vectors, at this point, rather than merely trying to keep high-risk people safe.

If we don't do this systemically, it's never going to end.

Spanish influenza killed at least ten times more people than Covid at a time when the population was much smaller. Even the Hong Kong flu outbreak in ‘69 is estimated to have killed as many people in a year as Covid in the UK…no one even remembers it.

Depends where you are. Covid has now killed almost as many Americans as the 1918 flu did.

I accept some people are weaker and take longer to recover…that’s life I’m afraid. Good news is they can’t catch it again so don’t have to risk the vaccination.

Now you are blaming "weak" people?

And, yes.

They can catch it again.

You REALLY dont understand jack shit about COVID.

Cancer remission =/= Cured.

You don't care that many who died of COVID were robbed of years of their lives.

Why care about the cancer patients?

Most Covid deaths were old people nearing the end of their lives, many cancer deaths are younger people who could have still had a future. Once you’re 82 you have to come to terms with the fact that you won’t live forever.

I’d be very weary about how the numbers are being counted…also check out the average age of death.

The numbers count correspond almost precisely to excess deaths.

And our older citizens are still citizens. We can't just write them off.

Yet affects people of practically ALL ages.

And can spread by people of practically ALL ages.

Long term ones that may emerge…don’t forget some of these vaccines are new technology…might be great , might not. I’ve had the Pfizer jabs…some doctors are concerned about it’s ability to form blood clots…but I’ll let you know if I have a heart attack lol.

Excess deaths are not all Covid, for instance the reaction to Covid has caused deaths…lack of treatment etc.

I will accept a hypothetical risk over an actual one.

The chances of dying with Covid increase exponentially with age…that should be a clue to the risk of it to kids and the fact that old people die more often.
