Numbers add up VS being unvaccinated and getting covid, somethingsomething fuck antivaxxers
Holy shit they want $35USD per month for The Telegraph.
I went onto their subscription page because I couldn’t believe you. Not only are you right, they block you from just hitting the back button to exit out.
I mean, it gives you 2 or 4 subscriptions at that price, so I guess it’s not that bad if you group up and split the cost.
J/k, it’s still that bad lol
That’s a lot of money to pay to read Tory fan fiction
That’s a robbery!
I mean, it makes total sense when better vaccines exist.
Before people are like eh eh anti-vaxx blabla or ha ha we knew this had side-effects, since this is still a for profit company, this part is quite important:
AstraZeneca said the vaccine was being removed from markets for commercial reasons. It said the vaccine was no longer being manufactured or supplied, having been superseded by updated vaccines that tackle new variants.
Isn’t this kind of a garbage comparison? Your chance of dying by childbirth is zero if you choose not to have kids, or if you biologically can’t have kids. Same with almost everything on this list, other than the only other medical intervention of GA (which you may not have a choice to avoid if you need it for a medically necessary procedure). Wouldn’t it be better to compare it to the risk dying of COVID? Or the risk of dying from other common vaccines?
BS headline. Side effects are not the reason it’s withdrawn.
god the torygraph is just sensationalist garbage
LOL:
"How risky was the AstraZeneca vaccine?
Compared to other scenarios
Death from giving birth - 1 in 12,500
Chance of under-50s getting blood clot with low platelets from AstraZeneca vaccine - 1 in 50,000
Death from receiving general anaesthetic - 1 in 100,000"
Death from giving birth number seems awfully low, must be UK numbers. ;)
Yup. US death rate is 32.9 per 100,000 so… 1 in 3,039.51
Death from giving birth number seems awfully low
Seemed slightly on the high side to me, but within the bounds of normal. This is like a medical version of the overton window, I guess.
Here in NZ it’s around 7 per 100,000. I get the impression the US is an outlier on this particular stat.
Jesus Christ, 1 in 3000? That’s terrifying.
Oh, it gets WORSE:
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hestat/maternal-mortality/2021/maternal-mortality-rates-2021.htm
“In 2021, the maternal mortality rate for non-Hispanic Black (subsequently, Black) women was 69.9 deaths per 100,000 live births, 2.6 times the rate for non-Hispanic White (subsequently, White) women (26.6) (Figure 1 and Table). Rates for Black women were significantly higher than rates for White and Hispanic women.”
1 in 1,430.62 for black women. This is why abortion rights are so important in the US.
Fucking hell. That’s just awful.
Agreed on abortion rights, they need to get their finger out and pass nationwide law that the states can’t overrule.
