"Don’t think of this as a bad sign, it’s exactly what’s expected from an effective but imperfect jab", D. Spiegelhalter. Thank God I didn't buy his shitty book on statistics
Lol India's vaccination is nowhere near Israel's. I don't think they've even single vaxxed 25% of the population. Blaming the vaccine for an outbreak there is just silly.

If you read the article, you will find that more vaccinated people are dying because there are more vaccinated people (simple math), which doesn't prove anything against the vaccine. In my social circles (majority of which are pro-vaccine) I have heard of many death cases of non-vaccinated people, but not one occurrence of vaccinated people. Unpopular opinion: but I find this campaign against the vaccine highly questionable. Statistics strongly, STRONGLY suggest that the vaccine does save lives and significantly reduces the likelihood of death from Covid, but also helps limit its nasty (and often long-lasting) side effects. Why is this page doing it? I can find no compelling answer. Every time I read through, the only way I can see it is that a hatred towards the vaccine has been formed and crystalized *before* actually looking into evidence and numbers. I mean, let's say the vaccine plays with your DNA and stuff. Fine. Let's accept that for the sake of argument. That still doesn't prove that the vaccine is not successful in countering Covid itself, because quite frankly, evidence that it does is just so overwhelming that there is no way to deny it unless you have formerly decided to be anti-vaccine as a matter of principle and no matter what
When you test more people on Covid, you'll find more positive results (simple maths). Many of them are false positive, or true positive but NOT contageous (this is what the German University of Duisburg has recently found out).
Doesn't look like that at all in Israel where they do have a highly vaccinated population. Case numbers are still very low but they are being very cautious and they've only had around 20 deaths in the last month. Clearly they are not more susceptible now.
Guess who will be blamed in the end? The unvaccinated. This is what I worry about the most.
Look I'm not saying the vaccine is without its problems but let's not torch our credibility but jumping onto everything that confirms our biases. Like you say we'll have to see how it pans out.

You make too much sense. Every social platform or policy that right wing people like her might have are lost when they also espouse anti science stances like this one. Global warming is real, covid vaccine is good and too much immigration is bad. Both can exist in the same side.
