“This study from Harvard Medical School done in healthcare workers shows the COVID incidence rate in vaccinated, unvaccinated, and previously infected individuals. Let’s review the study.“
Results and Discussion
During the study period (December 16, 2020 to September 30, 2021), 4615 HCWs contributed to a total of 1,152,486 person-days at risk (excluding 309 HCWs with prior infection) and had a COVID-19 incidence rate of 5.2/10,000 (114 infections out of 219,842 person-days) for unvaccinated person-days and 0.6/10,000 (49 infections out of 830,084 person-days) for fully vaccinated person-days, resulting in an adjusted VE of 82.3% (95% CI: 75.1–87.4%). For the secondary analysis limited to the period of delta variant predominance in Massachusetts (i.e., July 1 to September 30, 2021), we observed an adjusted VE of 76.5% (95% CI: 40.9–90.6%). Independently, we found no re-infection among those with prior COVID-19, contributing to 74,557 re-infection-free person-days, adding to the evidence base for the robustness of naturally acquired immunity.
Emphasis mine.
Preprint: Continued Effectiveness of COVID-19 Vaccination among Urban Healthcare Workers during Delta Variant Predominance

I can attest to it, anecdotally: one of my brothers is an ER trauma surgeon who was exposed to the Wuhan flu by mid 2020. He estimates that most of the hospital’s staff had the Wuhan flu by the end of 2020, including most of his team. No one in his team who had the Wuhan got reinfected, despite regular contact with Wuhan flu positive trauma patients between October and vaccine-a-palooza 2021.
Which is why they’re so desperate to get everybody vaccinated, so these sorts of studies will never again be able to be done for lack of a control group. But no matter how much the media tries to ignore it and pretend it’s not happening, we know there are massive protests worldwide against this coercion. And someday people may understand that idiots who claim to be much wiser than they actually are unleashed this thing upon the world and these are the same sorts of idiots who think they can control the economy, the climate, and the future of the entire planet.
I think the public health advisors are a big problem. No doubt, the Bonnie Henry’s and Deena Hinshaw’s did well in school with that rote learning, but they do not seem capable of exercising independent judgement. They are functioning in a bubble where someone higher up tells them what to do. They are good at following orders. Yesterday the Ottawa public health person ( Vera Etches) was very excited that the 5 to 11 year olds will now be vaccinated. She seems oblivious to the potential problem. Bizzaro world! It would be good to see one of the higher up public health people raising concerns about the crazy plan to vaccinate every last person. Of course they would get fired, so it won’t happen.
“We followed a population of urban Massachusetts HCWs (45% non-White) subject to epidemiologic surveillance. ”
Does this mean regular testing regardless of symptoms?
“excluding those with prior COVID-19 infection from the main analyses. ”
This is a bias with regards to the vaccine efficacy numbers. It might push it up, might push it down, we don’t know. But the efficacy numbers are far enough from 0% that I can confidently say the vaccines have a very positive effect.
Thank you yet again SDA for proving the vaccines work!
Thank you yet again SDA for proving the vaccines work!
The study shows they don’t work as well as recovery from natural infection. So a sensible strategy would focus on protecting (isolating / vaccinating) only those to whom Covid-19 infection is a significant danger, and leaving everyone else to get infected at as high a rate as possible (any limit being based on health provision being overwhelmed).
Nice deflection and no, that is beyond fucking stupid.
Uh… NO, Alan. Not at all. PJF was focusing on topic. YOU are the one deflecting!
Nice projection on your part, though.
And btw… did you not see Kate’s warning a few threads back?
. . . that is beyond f[. . . . .]g stupid.
Show your work.
Clearly not as the shots are proving ineffective and injurious beyond a reasonable number.
Actually, that’s quite an important point, that natural immunity is better than vaccinated, well known with respect to covid.
Instead we get ludicrous masking of vaccinated with a one in a million chance of infecting anybody, discouraging vaccination.
Herd immunity is supposed to consider natural immunity. But all is new in scientism world, where goalposts move daily.
As they always have and will again, covid collectivists interpret their every failure as need for more lockdowns and lost liberty.
It is, for their power. Look at the ridiculous megalomania going on in Austria, NZ, Australia, media silent on Europe protests.
So protecting the vulnerable while letting society function, letting individuals protect themselves is “beyond fucking stupid?”
Sure, Adolph, government always knows better than citizens what’s better for them. Actually they never know better.
Want to know why? Because they’re fixated on their benefit, are stupider than posts, with zero common sense, except they’re very good at exerting and abusing power. Government is poor at picking winners but losers are good at picking government.
The vaccibes weaken the immune system overall. That’s why cancers, shingles, neurological problems, and heart attacks are showing up. This needs to be considered along with their ability to fight Covid.
Hahaha ya ok……
I bet the vaccines caused election fraud too
Allen S
Yea I have to agree.
That It’s very effective in DESTROYING Immune systems, seems perfectly clear to me sonny. Have a Good look to Israel – Case numbers skyrocketing…but, but they are 100% “Vaxxed’…how can that be.??
Typical Liberal troll..one that would wade in 4′ deep Diarrhea and call it a bath.
Do you even pay attention?
Israel is 66% double and triple vaxxed. The new cases, severe illness, and deaths are overwhelmingly among the unvaccinated. Thank you yet again SDA for proving vaccines work.
Israel is not skyrocketing. They are at a bottom in between waves. They were hitting 10k new cases a day in early Sept, now they’re around 500 a day. You clearly do not pay attention.
Had nothing been done in the spring of 2020 the whu who flu would be gone it is as simple as that. That folks is a fact, the rest is hysterical insanity.
Dumb Jerk is consistently mean to others because he is unhappy with his own life.
Nor does he ever contribute anything constructive or informative.
BJ’s going to be less happy when he discovers the spike proteins that migrated to his wife’s ovaries have effectively rendered her sterile. And even less so when he is diagnosed with myocarditis or pericarditis & has a massive MI. And, and, he’ll feel positively suicidal when he discovers that no one in his family who got jabbed has an immune system remaining.
Karma’s a beotch and I’m going to be smiling like the proverbial Cheshire cat.
The bottom line is, if you can get the disease after being vaxxed, then it ain’t a vax, and it doesn’t work.
People who think their pathetic little lives are of such value that they think its OK to violate the rights of billions on the 0.1% chance they may catch the disease and die are called “narcissists”, and any sane society would shun them.
A new strain of Covid — symptomless. Surely this is a joke:
https://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/new-symptomless-covid-strain-more-22218807
Burn the witch.
Symptomless Pandemic.
Even the Babylon Bee would be hard pressed to make that up.
Sort of like “Greta sees CO2”..
Perhaps when you become hysterical with fear,then you can find “Doom” everywhere?
Though on second thought,the fact that Dread Covid has not been isolated ,that our government run health rationing system has neither accurate home testing nor adequate first aid treatment ,might fit right in with Symptomless Pandemic..
The Pandemic you have when you don’t have a virulent virus?
The panic,hysteria and draconian gong show put on by our fearfilled “leaders” over a disease that kills less than 1 in a hundred..
I need coffee.
What was the corrected kill rate per thousand?
As those official government numbers spiral down,as dead with covid keeps getting corrected to dead from covid,the kill rate of this virus is underperforming our annual flu season.
Looks like The Dread Covid is a Plandemic after all.
Where the busybodies and professional doomsters have stampeded us into inflicting more damage than the poor wee corona-virus could have ever done.
Retribution is best served cold.
The vaccines are killing more people than the disease it’s supposed to prevent.
Oh, do you think that’s a hyperbolic statement?
Not at all. Your claim is supported by the situation in Africa– very few prople vacvinated and no — virtually no — Covid. Contrast with the reality in Israel right now:

What a pile of Laughable BS.
I do not buy in any way, shape or form this notion of Asymptomatic Transmission.
PURE GARBAGE. One is either sick and knows it or is NOT sick.
I don’t believe in the tooth faery either…
End of story
SNV. In China , I know that is the wrong country to get info from, but, with the largest population on the planet, their “people” have said that in a survey of over ten million , that is right, ten million , no asymptomatic transmission was observed. The CDC at one point said the same thing, as did the WHO. Now who the fuck is lying?
SO:
Being infected gives immunity; vaccination gives almost as much.
[The Italian passport allows for vaccinated OR previously infected persons to be regarded as protected]
Not mentioned:
no breakthrough infections among the previously infected
protective protocols give pretty good protection.
the knock-on effects of having been infected [others infected, loss of work days, any deaths]
Regarding the last bit: New CDC data:
In October, unvaccinated people were 5.8 times more likely to test positive and 14 times more likely to die from COVID-19,
compared to the fully vaccinated.
In September, the risk was 6.1 times for cases and 11.3 times for deaths.

Dizzy
Thats a pile of CDC garbage.
1: its not a VACCINE – its a gene treatment designed to reduce Symptoms (Pfizers own words)
2: it’s demonstrably UNsafe.
3: Relying on the CDC..?? is laughable. They are as compromised as are the FDA & the NIH simply because they are pretty well “owned” by Big PHarma.
Suggest you look to Israel. 100% Vaxxed Country and their case rates are Skyrocketing as are their deaths – 100% FROM dbl Vaxxinated people. Us here in Canada are aboput 3 months or so behind them…we will see Identical Results too
This crap (S1 Spike Protein), is a BIO WEAPON…first tested in 2003 (SARS), and since refined.
US Patent 7279327 – look it up.
Pfizer are clearly prepared to call their product a vaccine
https://www.pfizer.com/science/coronavirus
// US Patent 7279327 – look it up. //
I did. Or rather I just searched your phrase:
Patently False: The Disinformation Over Coronavirus Patents
// I tracked down the patents that have been scaring people into believing in a coronavirus conspiracy. They are easily findable on the website patents.google.com. Is any of them a smoking gun for the conspiracy-minded? Not at all.[…]
& re 7279327:
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was flagged in the conspiracy video Plandemic as being the start of the coronavirus patent “rabbit trail,” but the patent we are shown is for a coronavirus that causes gastroenteritis in pigs and that typically kills newborn piglets that catch it (US7279327B2 and WO 02/086068 A2). […] etc

As for “here in Canada in about 3 months”, I don’t do predictions. And what eventuates then depends on what
we are doing now
Steakidiot is 100% wrong. Israel is 65% vaxxed and in BETWEEN waves. The new cases, severe illness, and deaths are overwhelmingly among the unvaccinated
Define “Vaxxed.” Correct me if I’m wrong (I’m sure you will, but at least be nice about it), but didn’t Israel recently redefine “vaccinated” as “having the two doses plus a booster?”
Which raises the question: How many of the unvaxxed had actually rec’d two doses of the vaccine, or got sick less than 14 days after their third dose?
(Sort of like MW redefining the word “vaccine” so that the Pfizer clot shot would qualify as such.)
Now please dig into your stat-o-meter, and tell all of us the percentage of the population that has received two doses only. I think you’ll find that number substantially higher.
The vaxxes give no immunity what so ever. Medical, biological, scientific, impossibility.
In just a short time Sask. Health has booked 12,000 vaccine doses for children under 12. The system actually crashed from high demand. All the huff and puff from the likes of you folks has done nothing to dissuade parents from doing what they think is the right thing to do for their children.
What was that you say? I just have to wait for some future time that you say the side effects will kick in. You people sound like the CLIMATE CHANGE PEOPLE. Think about it.
Side effects are already kicking in.
Its clear that the vaxx is, at best, preventing herd immunity, and at worse, killing young healthy people.
You would have fit right in in 1950s China.
Do you really think nobody gets the Measles after vaccination. I just looked it up. It happens.
It is not surprising that lots of people are rushing out to get their kids vaccinated. They have been thoroughly brainwashed. Most simply follow the government narrative regarding these vaccines. They are not aware of how much information is being suppressed. The vaccines are not safe, and children are not at significant risk from the virus. The situation is very alarming.
Maybe you have been brainwashed. Have you ever considered that.
Mark Friesen shot his mouth off for a year. You would have been exposed to his rantings. Where is he now. Almost dead. Think about that for a second.
As opposed to the dozens of dead or severely disabled athletes?
I love the internet.
It allows the truth to come out.
I can see how much that bugs you, and its beautiful.
Ya can’t stop the signal, punk.
Any NHL hockey players in your dead list? No. How about NFL football players? No again. CFL, No again. How about ML Baseball players. Are the bodies piling up in the outfield. No they are not. So all North American sports and where are all the deaths you speak of.
It’s been a year. Athletes should be dropping dead weekly.
Yes, there are NHL, NFL and CFL players who have suffered severely ill effects and/or died.
But you know this, as does anyone who can use a search engine.
Also, I like how try to find the smallest possible population/group of athletes, and proclaim “nobodies died there yet, so all other deaths are insignificant”, you finding the documented deaths insignificant tells us all we need to know about you, you little Maoling.
“Athletes should be dropping dead weekly.”
Yes, bi-monthly is too slow for you sick freaks.
You are gonna need to do better than that. Name 1 CFL player injured by the Covid vaccine. I googled it. None came up. If 1 NHL players suffered death or side effects that Were debilitating then it would be headline news.
Vaccinations start for children in the next day or so. You should park yourself out behind Prairieland Park and watch the bodies pile up. Please do it and take pictures.
“…then it would be headline news.”
Keep on believing that.
I can remember at least 2 NHL players to collapse, a guy from the the Dallas Stars and the St. Louis Blues.
It’s been non-stop CNN/CBC coverage of both of them!!!
Back to your POS bag, sonny.
“Vaccinations start for children…watch the bodies pile up. Please do it and take pictures.”
Keep your sickened fantasies to yourself, Maoling.
As opposed to the dozens of dead or severely disabled athletes?
You claimed NHL athletes have been killed or disabled from the vaccine.
Name the players. Go on do it boy. There are none.
2 players collapsing is not death or disabled. Try again boy
