three weeks from the spike in new cases, no correlating spike in deaths (a first for america). very odd how our “vaccine disinformation crisis” doesn’t seem to have influenced our highest-risk populations.pic.twitter.com/32VMCT8Kdd

hey so our leaders are fools but worth considering requisite actions if: - delta is not dangerous to vaxxed - vaxxed people are delta (R0=8) vectors - selective pressure to escape vax antibodies now proven this is a novel risk regime imo. i'm re-masking.

best steelman here to me is delta maximalism to get to herd before more dangerous (read: child affecting) variants pop out. our leaders are many leagues away from ever thinking this way. but it's a principled stance imo to spread delta like crazy vs local harm minimization.

I agree w/ your point but wouldn't hospitalizations (assuming the data is available, which afaik it is for every state) be better at capturing how much these 'new cases' matter at all? (i.e. if the point is, 'they don't', then it would be more-compelling to illustrate that imo)

Look, it's simple. You have to get the vaccine. But the vaccine doesn't do anything. But it's totally amazing and protects you and is necessary. But it doesn't do anything.

You can’t be that dense. So you test positive for covid and die the next day? At a closer look it lags at least five days but not everyone reports daily.
