    "China reports 13,146 Covid cases, the highest since the peak of the first wave more than two years ago, as the highly transmissible Omicron variant spread to more than a dozen provinces.

    "No new deaths reported," the National Health Commission says in a statement"

    • Can anyone trust anything China says? According to the CCP, China has only 4,638 total deaths since the inception of the Wuhan Virus. Yeah okay!utopian

    "After accounting for lag between infection & death, *1 in 20* cases in Hong Kong currently ends in death.

    To put that into context, HK’s case fatality rate (NB different to infection fatality rate) is currently higher than England’s pre-vaccine peak. Two years into the pandemic."

    • vax offers very little protection against current covid. i bet the difference in outcomes has nothing to do with vax.pr2
    • but it says righ there: "the vaccination rates are much higher"grafician

    • What's causing the higher death rate?Chimp
    • If you follow the linked thread a few posts down, the reason for the death rate is unvaxed elderly. Sounds like they listened to the same sources as pr2robotinc
    • When Omicron hit, *more than two-thirds of people aged 80+ in Hong Kong were still unvaccinated*, compared to a couple of percent in New Zealand and Singapore.robotinc
    • Lots of Chyna is unvaxed or vaxxed with their shitty no-use vax. Many will die...due to virus and lockdownsgrafician
    • It's possible there is some element of HKers not trusting the Chinese made vaccine, based on discussion with my uncle who lives there.yuekit
    • And of course Chinese vax is less effective than the mRNA one, but you are probably still better off taking it.yuekit
    • you guys like simplistic solutions and explanation, don't you?pr2
    • 1 in 20 dead is a LOT
      Hope your fam will pull thru this @yuekit
      can't you ship them some Western vax stuff?

    • Correction, it seems you can actually get the mRNA ones in HK. They may just be less easily available.

    • by the same logic NZ would be .05% 10x not 50x deaths... both hong kong and NZ have recorded no excess deaths for 3 years HK has an avg. age of 44.4 vs NZ 38kingsteven
    • NZ is also 24233% bigger than HK and peaked at 5x the cases per day as NZ would satisfy me as an explanation of 10x mortalitykingsteven

    Tennessee Senate passes bill to allow over-the-counter sales of ivermectin


    https://thehill.com/news/state-w…

    NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WJHL) – A local lawmaker has co-sponsored a bill that would allow ivermectin to be sold over the counter in Tennessee without a prescription. On Wednesday, the bill co-sponsored by Sen. Rusty Crowe (R-Johnson City) was passed by the state Senate.

    • The anti-parasitic drug ivermectin does not reduce hospitalizations of people infected with COVID-19, according to a large study conducted in Canada.utopian

    • Half the patients were given a course of ivermectin pills for three days and the other half a placebo.utopian

    I was on a flight yesterday and the pilot announced that “masks are no longer required thanks to an EXCELLENT JUDGE from Florida”

    A few people cheered, then a dozen little inane, annoying conversations broke out all over the plane. Within seconds, people citing “research” and arguing over each other.

    “Oh there’s plenty of research that masks don’t work”
    “Look I’m not saying Covid is fake, it’s just not really what they’re trying to scare everyone”

    All of them total morons. Anyone with half a brain and some self awareness kept their mouths shut.

    It was in unbearable. Until we were up in the air it was like I was living in a real live QBN comments thread.
