Missouri hospital CEO: Vaccine opponents should 'Shut up' (yahoo.com)
Missouri hospital CEO: Vaccine opponents should 'Shut up'
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) — One Missouri hospital official is telling anyone making disparaging remarks about the COVID-19 vaccine to “Shut up” as state officials ask for federal help dealing with a surge in cases that has some counties urging new precautions.
Deep vaccine resistance has allowed the delta variant, first identified India, to take hold in the state, straining hospitals, particularly in the Springfield area.
“If you are making wildly disparaging comments about the vaccine, and have no public health expertise, you may be responsible for someone’s death. Shut up,” tweeted Steve Edwards, who is the CEO of CoxHealth in Springfield.
CoxHealth and the city's other hospital, Mercy Springfield, were treating 168 COVID-19 patients Friday, up from 31 on May 24, before the surge began, said Aaron Schekorra, a spokesman for the Springfield-Greene County Health Department. He said that 36 of them were on ventilators.
Erik Frederick, the chief administrative officer of Mercy Springfield, also turned to Twitter in an effort to bolster vaccinations, noting that they prevent deaths.
“So if you’re vaccinated there is a light at the end of a tunnel,” he said. “If you’re unvaccinated that’s probably a train.”
State data shows that 44.6% of residents have received at least one shot, far short of the 54.7% rate nationally. And in more than 60 Missouri counties, less than 30% of the population had received their first shot, according to state data.
The situation has grown so dire that Missouri health officials announced Thursday that they were asking for federal help from newly formed surge response teams.
Meanwhile, St. Louis and St. Louis County health departments along with health officials in Jefferson County begged even immunized people to resume mask-wearing in public, citing the threat of the delta variant.
The Jefferson County Health Department’s advisory said children are being exposed to COVID-19 as they resume normal activities without protection. During the last two weeks, the number of new cases had increased 42%, with the highest number of cases among 10– to 19-year-olds.
“This is concerning," the advisory said, “since most of that age group is eligible for the vaccine, but only 10.82% have completed the full series of vaccination."
In the southeast part of the state, the Stoddard County Public Health Center this week asked residents to get vaccinated as officials grapple with climbing COVID-19 cases, including an outbreak at a nursing facility, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
The center said Thursday it was monitoring 33 cases — “up from the 5-10 we’ve been experiencing over the last few months.” The health center said an outbreak at a nursing facility in Advance made up a “large portion” of cases, and that one resident who tested positive had died.

'Unvaccinated America' At Risk Of New Covid Surge From Aggressive 'Delta' Variant
Dr. Ashish Jha, dean of the Brown University School of Public Health, talks about the contrast between "vaccinated America" and "unvaccinated America," the dangers of the new Covid-19 Delta variant, and the challenges of improving the vaccination rate in the United States.

Vaccine rate is going to surge when they get scared enough. The media is going to have a field day now with ads. I see billboards everywhere. We might hit 75 percent vaccinated by Sept . After the 4th of a july super spreaders followed by deaths the ones holding out will either be dead or running to get the jab.

I hope the delta variant runs amok in MAGAville and takes out as many of these ignorant fucks as possible. But I hate the possibility that any innocents will lose their lives to other’s willful stupidity.

At the start of the pandemic, kids made up 2% of new COVID infections. Now, they make up 24%. What happened? (yahoo.com)
At the start of the pandemic, kids made up 2% of new COVID infections. Now, they make up 24%. What happened?
Children make up a growing share of new coronavirus cases per week as overall infections decline with the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines, but infection and hospitalization rates among children remain stable.
In March 2020, children only accounted for about 2% of new infections. By the end of May, children made up more than 24% new weekly infections even though they only account for 16% of the population, according to data by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Health experts say it’s a sign more adults and adolescents need to get vaccinated to avoid bringing the virus home and spreading it to children that aren’t yet eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine.
“The virus is an equal opportunity infector. It doesn’t care if you’re young or old,” said Dr. Robert Frenck, professor of pediatrics and director of the Center for Vaccine Research at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, who presented the data at a Johns Hopkins University-University of Washington symposium Wednesday called “Covid-19 and Kids: Impacts, Uncertainties and the Role of Vaccines.”
More than 4 million children have tested positive for COVID-19 in the US, 18,500 were hospitalized and 336 have died from the disease, according to the AAP. About 4,000 kids have been hospitalized with multisystem inflammatory syndrome children or MIS-C – a rare, but dangerous condition the CDC says is associated with COVID-19.
Although nearly 55% of Americans have received at least one vaccine dose as of Friday, health experts say vaccination rates are not uniform across the U.S. leaving room for outbreaks and childhood infections.
“There are some places where vaccinations rates are as low as 20%,” Frenck said. “It’s not ‘if,’ but ‘when.’ (Outbreaks) will happen, and unfortunately, people will be surprised and that’s what we’ve been trying to tell people.”
Health experts say it’s especially crucial to increase vaccination rates as the Delta variant continues to spread throughout the U.S. On Wednesday, Texas Children’s Hospital reported several of the country’s first pediatric infections – all occurring in children under 12.
It’s too early to tell if the Delta variant causes more severe disease in children, but experts say the variant seems to be causing more symptomatic infections than the original virus.
“Because it’s the most highly contagious variant to date based on all the data we’ve accumulated so far, we expect to see more rapid transmission of this virus from adults and adolescents to children,” said Dr. James Versalovic, pathologist-in-chief and interim pediatrician-in-chief at Texas Children’s Hospital.
In the meantime, scientists are doubling their efforts to finish clinical trials so the Food and Drug Administration can authorize the vaccine for younger children as soon as possible.
Pediatric hospitals are working closely with vaccine developers like Pfizer and Moderna to combine Phase 2 and 3 trials, expediting the process during the summer months to submit data by early fall.
“Early in the next school year, we hope to have emergency use authorization for these COVID vaccines for children under 12 by early to mid-fall,” Versalovic said. “That remains a top priority and has now added urgency with the rapid spread of the Delta variant.”

Dr. Fauci: Unvaccinated Account for 99.2 Percent of June COVID Deaths
Urging Americans to get vaccinated as the Biden administration fell short of its July 4 vaccination goal of 70%, Dr. Anthony Fauci cited data showing about 99.2% of June's nearly 10,000 COVID-19 fatalities were unvaccinated.
"If you look at the number of deaths, about 99.2% of them are unvaccinated — about 0.8% are vaccinated," Fauci told NBC's "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd on Sunday. "No vaccine is perfect. But when you talk about the avoidability of hospitalization and death, Chuck, it's really sad and tragic that most all of these are avoidable and preventable."
The less than 1% of COVID-19 fatalities being among the vaccinated people is not a knock against the vaccine, added Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and chief medical adviser to the president.
"I mean, obviously there are going to be some people, because of the variability among people and their response to vaccine, that you'll see some who are vaccinated and still get into trouble and get hospitalized and die, but the overwhelming proportion of people who get into trouble are the unvaccinated — which is the reason why we say this is really entirely avoidable and preventable," Fauci said.

And some comments.

Show me the REAL SCIENCE that this vaccine is effective. I have not seen it yet! Why are they pushing so hard for a vaccine for something that has a 99.9X% cure rate and medication that cures the virus? Who needs a untested vaccine? I will not be a lab rat!
RDuffy
It's fun to look at the actual COVID numbers. For example,
The rate of COVID deaths is 17 times higher in MO than in MA.
The COVID case rate in FL is more than ten times what it is in NH.
The hospitalization rate in AR is twelve times what it is in NH.
The infection rate among unvaccinated people is about 20 times the infection rate for vaccinated people.
Huge COVID outbreaks over the weekend at Christian summer camps in central IL and Texas. I haven't seen these reported on Newsmax, but they're out there.
But you won't believe these numbers, because you don't want to, and when you start coughing you'll say it is allergies, and when you are hospitalized you'll say it's Biden's fault, and then, right before you die, you'll post one of those heart-rending videos about how you thought it was all a hoax.
I guess I should feel sorry for you, but by now I couldn't care less.

Why do these LYING LIBTURD TROLLS keep posting that Trump took the fake vaccine? TRUMP NEVER TOOK IT.
He had China Flu before the fake vaccine was available.
Trump said he had antibodies and didn't need the shot.

THC in cannabis could help treat deadly COVID-19 complications
Research from the University of South Carolina suggests THC - the chemical that gives cannabis its mind-altering effect - could prevent a harmful immune response in COVID-19 patients.

my experience has been decarboxylated cannabis flower extract taken at first sign of a cold, like 250mg, will completely destroy a cold and dehydrate u.
i haven't had a cold in over 7 years of taking over a gram of extract daily for my inoperable prostate cancer that the doctors said i would be dead in 3 months 7 years ago.
i don't think it works, i know it works.

Delta variant now makes up more than half of coronavirus cases in US, CDC says | CNN
"We're already starting to see places with low vaccination rates starting to have relatively big spikes from the Delta variant," the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health said. And more variants could spell trouble for everyone.
