Did more looking into this. Need 70% to get to herd immunity:
It is COVID fatigue causing compromises I think, 85 to 90 percent
is better but 70 sounds more "doable" at this point in time. Not
enough IMO.
I have the same feeling -- but no evidence to back it.

You do actually with the R0 of the new more virulent strains.



This is what I was asking for evidence of. Do you have any?




Would love to see the research you are referring to.

Not clear what you want, the differing R0 with the more virulent strains
or the need for a higher percentage than 70% with the R0 of the more
virulent strains.


Evidence of what you say.


Which bit of what I said there ?

reams of your troll**** flushed where it belongs

The good news is the vaccines seem to work better than

Not just seems to, has been proven to do that now.
I could quibble over semantics and scientific terms,
No you couldnt with that, it has been proven.
By all means show the proof (not just support).

You are free to chase that up for yourself.


No offence, but I did not think you would be able to show any.


I can but dont take that troll bait.

In science there are few proofs


Thats mindless bull****.

-- but there is often strong support.


Mindless hair splitting/pathetic trolling.



You were asked to back a claim about proof. You did not. That is OK... you
have a belief you cannot back. No attack. No insult. Not interested in yours.


As far as proofs -- those are a part of math, not science.

None that base that on any rigorous science.

In the past I had seen 80-90%.
Its even higher than that now with the new more virulent
strains but not known with any certainty yet.
I would not be surprised -- but do you have cites to back that?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_reproduction_number

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-06-...ants/100190414


Can you quote where they speak of the number of vaccinated people needed
for herd immunity?


Yep.

https://www.jhsph.edu/covid-19/artic...h-covid19.html

That doesnt say that it only needs to get to 70%.

"What we know about coronavirus so far suggests that,
Suggests isnt your original absolute.
These comments are meant as best guesses, not absolutes.

Easy to say after you have been picked up on your original claim.


Easy to say for those of us who speak English.

I have no issue with a clarification... but I have no desire for such
games.


Ditto.

if we were really to go back to a pre-pandemic lifestyle, we would
need at least 70% of the population
At least isnt the same as your original.

to be immune to keep the rate of infection down (€śachieve herd
immunity€ť) without restrictions on activities."
You ignored this part.

No need to comment on that bit, it was what herd immunity is about.


The part about herd immunity is key to the point about herd immunity.


Try that again in english, even google translate doesnt do gobbledegook
yet.

New York close to 70%

Even that isnt clear.


https://www.usnews.com/news/best-sta...a-vaccine-dose

That isnt saying that its close to 70%.
Just one politician has made that claim without
citing any scientific basis for making that claim.
Do you have contrary data?


You do not. OK.


More mindless troll****, your trademark as that other pointed out
accurately.


Exactly.
In a previous post you asked snit what he was looking for.
Snit is looking to troll and suck people into his snit circus.
Nothing more than that.

Here is what happens when someone makes the mistake of engaging snit in
a dialog.
It is the end result almost 100 percent of the time.
It comes from one of the links in my siggie.

"36- George Graves: "Jason. You have started an argument with
the Snit (AKA Michael Glasser), this should not be done. He
will drive you crazy with his twisted logic, his deep-rooted
need to be ALWAYS right at any cost. He will move goalposts,
set up strawmen, and bore you into submission with his endless
pedanticism. The only way to engage him is to hit and run. NEVER
engage him, it's a futile, empty procedure that will only anger
you and feed him. Take my advice and STAY AWAY!" 27 Oct 2004"

See in the news they will be lifting restrictions. The current threshold
for herd immunity is 70%. They are just about there.

Heard it from the wife of a doctor doing research in New York €” but it
might not be official.


What restrictions? I've been going about my life as normal.

Most people who are likely to get it will have already had it (and most likely not had any symptoms). Just let people get back to normal, there won't be many more cases.

Snit: What kind of rose?
Person: I don't know, a ****ing red rose.
Snit: Why are you getting vulgar with me?
Person: Because you are an idiot.
Snit: You attack me because you have nothing to say.
Person: I've been trying to say something to you for two days now. You
don't listen.
Snit: Define something.
Person: Are you some kind of asshole?
Snit: Why are you attacking me.

ROTFPMSL! A very good description of Snit, or indeed any weirdo with OCD.

Microorganisms don't mutate to "avoid" anything. It's an undirected
process
whereby anything that survives (whether it's antibodies produced by a
vaccine
or an antibacterial such as penicillin) is resistant. Anything that
wasn't
resistant is dead.


I've read that this virus is intelligent, like a motorist spotting a
speedtrap and driving on a different route.


Reality is nothing like that. Viruses cant do that.


So we think now. But we're always discovering new things about nature.

Good point actually. I questioned this earlier as I was thinking about
in the USA we have basically three vaccines. We have heard about
bacteria being resistant due to overuse of antibacterials and
antibiotics. This is a little different.

The greatest threat is in the unvaccinated population who continue to
harbor the virus, there will always be some for one reason or another.
The bigger the host population the more the viruses environment shapes
the newer generations. Resistance can build.

The other point is, vaccinated people can still host the virus and
spread it to others, they are just less likely to get the serious
disease outcome than the unvaccinated. This is no magic bullet, it is
just another common-sense weapon in the battle against the virus.


If the vaccine doesn't stop you catching it and passing it on, it's ****ing absolutely pointless! It's not going to slow down the passing of the virus whatsoever. Yet another waste of government money.

The good news is the vaccines seem to work better than
first anticipated in terms of preventing the disease at all.


Not just seems to, has been proven to do that now.


I could quibble over semantics and scientific terms


You always do.

Compared to you, it is intelligent.


I'm not the sheep running off to get vaccinated against something you probably won't get, probably are naturally immune to, and probably won't kill you if you do get symptoms.

Does this person ever post anything DIY related, or am I safe to plonk
the "rissole"?

Perhaps someone will post the contents of their killfile, so I can copy
it. That would be helpful. It used to be that uk.d-i-y was not a general
chat group populated by such a proportion of wanackers (name deprecated
though).


Learn what the prefix OT means and filter that.

Irony - complains about non-DIY posts, has to ask other people to make
up his mind and can't do his own killfile.


Fancy re-inventing the wheel, Richard? I don't.


It's hardly rocket science.

Everyone having a single killfile is like having a single vaccine, it
makes it easier for the troll/vaccine to mutate ...


That is actually true. Ask Rod Speed.

What PHUCKER? There was a time that was his preferred method of trolling
- ask a DIY related question, wait for the answers, then spend ages
arguing with the answers! It was like trolling, but I think he missed
the art of standing back and lettings the flame wars run themselves!


No trolling, just a different opinion to the unwashed masses.
