Statistics: Covid & Vaccines

Hello Ronald, I thought you might be interested in the current stats from my part of the world. Here in Western Australia, we had really hard border closures and quarantine requirements and with those, managed not to have community transmission of COVID for two years - every time a case escaped from quarantine leaks etc, we jumped on it with snap lockdowns, region locking and contact tracing.

This meant life went on pretty normally in our state, aside from social distancing and some other precautions, and having few interstate or overseas visitors. We spent very little time locked down and most of the time working as normal, and no health disruptions. No recession here. We only opened our borders again very recently, when our 16+ population was 95% double vaccinated and everyone who wanted a booster shot had had one.

Community transmission then set in two months back and we are currently approaching our predicted caseload peak.
We are having a very soft landing compared to other places - very few hospitalisations / ICU cases, very few deaths. We also didn't get an exponential curve once we hit community transmission, but a series of plateaus.

116,423 Coronavirus Cases and 42,988 Active in WA - COVID Live

Very interesting watching the numbers here at the moment. The site updates daily. The 7 deaths reported for today actually weren't all from today, it was just one and the others were historical ones they wanted to add into the tally that for some reason didn't get tallied when they happened.

Just a really good contrast to what happens when you got community transmission in places pre-vaccine, or in populations with a lower vaccination rate. Between vaccination and mandatory indoor mask wearing in public places since we got community transmission, it's really held spread and serious illness at bay.
 
I have been following that there is a genetic basis for who gets infected. Carriers of a gene inherited from Neanderthals. So far I have seen nothing to falsify this hypothesis. If you are not a carrier of this gene a vaccine would not have been required. Basically if this had been tested for, could of would of. 20/ 20 hindsight. Our Premier followed the science I'm just happy my quality engineering training still works. A picture speaks a thousand words or a least a graph does.

First and second Apex readings in Toronto, are interesting sort of tell the story of Covid. At least in the City of Toronto our largest city.
If you share genes do not get together, without masks, or not be vaccinated.
Easter is coming up, one last kick at the cat for the virus. (Sorry cat lovers).

Ramadan starts to day, last time this got together with Easter we had the apex so things should get interesting in the next few weeks. Mainly in peel region hopefully the high vaccinate rates should mitigate the cases. See run building will it break tomorrow. that will give a clue to where we are going with Covid. Keep in mind the Goverment and the media both have ulterior motives in how they see what is going on, I do not Being an Aspie it's all about accuracy and being as truthful as possible.

I was out today and everyone has completely forgotten about covid. No mask, no restrictions or plastic dividers in the stores, nothing. Everyone I saw was living normally. And nothing in the newpapers about it, it's all about Ukraine now. It's strange in a way, I'm so used to the masks and all the restrictions. But it's great that it's over of course.

That sounds like a dream.
 
We still have to get through Easter, the lull before the storm. Even the outliers fails have normalized, good sign.
 
I have been correct so far I Have just the right mix of education Chemical engineering, Micro biology and quality engineering. and no reputation tp protect to stick my neck out.
 
I'm not conservative or religious, my love is science. I'll leave the refuting to accredited scientist's
I'm not qualified.
