Saw a stat on twitter this morning, so pinch of salt, but have NZ really only had 52 COVID deaths?

Amazing if so.

1/14th of the population of the UK, with the same landmass though, so its not completely comparable. Although obviously the closed border policy was the thing that did it.

It will be interesting to see what happens there when they open borders again - nowhere else in the world has such little exposure immunity.

Most people are wildly underestimating how both large and rhetorically violent this anti-vaccine movement is. They are a gigantic, one-issue political movement that will eventually coalesce behind one candidate and make extreme demands before 2024.



Hm, because mandatory vaccines, id passports, two tier society etc aren't extremes.

If you believe their numbers china. 3 deaths per million compared to 10 in nz. The chinese vaccinations are not meant to be as good and theyhave an aging population due to the 1 child rule.

Much better diet however, seeing as obesity is the biggest risk factor (the same/even more than age).

Age is the biggest factor by far. The ons figures show the average age of covid death in the uk is 81. Which is higher than the average lifespan in the uk.

America may be different though.
 
At least it looks like there could be an end to the 'war' this virus has created.

You really take your chances if you choose to be unvaccinated and catch the virus first time round.

Beyond that there is no discernible risk difference post infection. Vaccines work, natural immunity works. With a variant as transmissible as Omicron, most people will be 'post virus' soon.

In the interest of the fairness, love Neil young as a singer, song writer and performer, but he is an idiot.
Do we read need to hear from these people?
Anyone taking advice from young or clapton on anything meaningful has bigger issues than covid.
And i have never listened to, nor most probably will listen to joe what's his face, whoever he is.
