Two Curious German Covid Stories

 I noticed via Focus this morning.....that they went to chatting about the most recent group of Germans to enter intensive care units (ICU), and they say now that roughly one-third of all Germans entering....are fully vaccinated folks.  They even cited numbers from the fully vaccinated group going in....that one-fifth of this vaccinated group in ICU situations....were of the age group of 18 to 59 years old.

How many of the vax-Germans of the 18-to-59 year old group were recently dead and certified as dead from Covid?  Well....5.1-percent.  

Second, there's this female singer in Germany....(probably not a top ten singer but she makes into the top thirty females)....Patricia Kelly.

Last year, toward the end of the year (around December), Kelly gets Covid and ends up in a pretty dire/serious situation but survives.  In this case, she had serious issues with kidney issues, stomach cramps, and loss of appetite (not your average symptoms).  She eventually recovers.  

At some point, in the spring of 2021.....Kelly gets vaccinated.  Well....this past week, Kelly comes out and announces while she was in the hospital recently for a foot-related operation.....she's been tested and has Covid a second time.  

That natural immunity business?  In her case....very limited, and the vaccination effective nature probably is very limited as well.

UK has a vaccination rate of ~ 70% yet their health minister Javid is expecting the current infection rate to increase from 50.000 a day to 100.000 a day. That speaks for itself about the effectiveness if the vaccine

I'll only make this statement....if we get though this winter with the upsurge of Covid (as was the norm for 2020), and the Covid-serious folks (entering hospitals) stay at the same 2020-rate and most are vaccinated folks, then the sales-gimmick for the vaccinations will 'go south', and no one much will buy into the vaccination stuff.

I am a believer of the hygiene standards, the better use of drugs to treat people who have it, and that if you kept yourself free of other health issue (diabetes is a good example)...then your survival rate increases.
