The first people in England and Wales receive their coronavirus booster jab - a central part of winter Covid preparation across the UK

Maternity support worker Catherine Cargill, who works in Croydon, speaks of her joy at getting a third jab.

Millions of people, including health and care workers, the clinically vulnerable, and the over-50s, are eligible.

UK Covid deaths rise by 158 - with 26,911 new cases reported on Thursday.

Vaccines in England stopped 230,800 hospital admissions among the over-45s, new figures suggest.

Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon apologises "unreservedly" for ambulance wait times.

France sees 3,000 health workers suspended for going without a jab.

Dozens of aides to Russian President Vladimir Putin test positive.

Nine months after the trial ended, the vaccine was declared safe and effective. In 1955, mass inoculation against polio began. 25 years later, domestic polio transmission had all but vanished.

Polio is now a mandated vaccination in all 50 states. The kids you see pictured made this a reality for us all.

By and large the reason polio is eradicated is that humans are the only host. It is not carried by animals or insects. As such, vaccination on a grand scale worked. Other viruses are carried by animals/insects. Vaccinations will not eradicate these viruses that are carried by animals/insects. It is believed that there is low risk of animals/insects can carry COVID. But, never the less, there is some risk. This success story for eradicating polio is wonderful. But, COVID will not be eradicated with mass vaccinations as many hope.

Said it before I think this Corona virus is intelligent the way it acts and mutate.

I fear that due to our massive vaccination, the virus will find a way(mutate) so the vaccine has no function.

US hospitals being overwhelmed again.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...surge-rcna1997

Quote:
The situation has grown so bad that the Idaho Department of Health and Wellness announced Thursday that the entire state is in a hospital resource crisis, permitting medical facilities to ration health care and triage patients.
(...)
"The situation is dire," he said. We don’t have enough resources to adequately treat the patients in our hospitals, whether you are there for COVID-19 or a heart attack or because of a car accident.”
Idaho is one of those US states with the lowest vaccination rate.

Maybe hospitals should refuse to accept any patients that are not vaccinated wiothout having a valid medical reaosn for not being vaccinated. Not ethical, I hear some say? No, VERY ethical. Why should somebody with a stroke, a viuctim of an accident, or the kid that ahs swallowed household cleaner, not getting a bed because some dumbhead rejected to get vaccinated against Covid? I do not accept that. A life cannot be counted against another life, I hear some say? Wrong. It can. Those who stood up to their self-responsibility, go first.

Unvaccinated Covid patients maybe simpy should pass last at the hospital entrances. All others go first. What then is left free in capacity, can be given to unvaccinated Covid patients.

I'm vaccinated. I got delta including shortness of breath but no pneumonia. I'd have been hospitalized if I were unvaccinated.

Call it something else if "vaccine" doesn't sit right with you. Getting covid sucks. Getting it with symptoms bad enough to hospitalize you is preventable.

The overwhelming is by my observation very localized.

Yes, but its not just Idaho. NBC reported over the past 48 hours desperate situations in hospitals across several Western states.

And Idaho still is one of those states with the lowest vaccination rate, no matter what.

LINK - Hospitals fill up again in undervaccinated states

LINK - US is split between the vaccinated and unvaccinated – and deaths and hospitalizations reflect this divide

LINK - If you live in a state with a low vaccination rate, you're 4 times more likely to be hospitalized and more than 5 times more likely to die

Why is it that Corona virus has exploded in number of cases in USA, where the American still have some restriction they must follow, while the number of infected here in Denmark goes down R0=0.7 and number of people in hospital is going down for the moment and this despite Denmark has open fully.

Doesn't Denmark have a very high vaccination percentage?

Says 75% 12 and older are vaccinated.

They have.
Made a search to see how many percentage of the American people is fully vaccinated
and found an article
USA has according to NPR 54.1 % fully vaccinated
Could this could be the reason ?
