      Just putting this here, because you don't care about the truth (surely, you are aware of the real life data we have) but so your followers can see. Real life evidence is clear that these vaccines, too, greatly help prevent severe disease or worse.https://twitter.com/jburnmurdoch/status/1389617552943366144 …

      First, an update from Chile, where cases, ICU admissions and deaths are now all falling among the elderly, who were prioritised for vaccination (while still rising or stable among younger, less-vaccinated groups). pic.twitter.com/uD9zKMQz5m

          Again and again, we see all the vaccines help prevent severe disease among the vaccinated (but not the unvaccinated so a country can have outbreak). And science 101: breakthrough case rates (like cold symptoms) do differ among vaccines, doesn't mean they don't help prevent death.

          Of course, you will carry on, but basic facts, just in case anyone encounters it.

          @zeynep @AlexBerenson I took a dispassionate look at the data, looking at how the curves of India, UK, US, and Israel turned. It was interesting as Israel had the highest vax uptake, yet the slowest decline in their curve trajectory.https://twitter.com/JeanRees10/status/1398011202677182464?s=20 …

          UK Peak was January 8th -- 881 cases per million, 3.4% vaxxed First bottom after peak, was February 16th -- 182 cases per million, 23.5% vaxxed Cases dropped -79% in 39 days. Vaxxed increased by 20.1%.

          Do you agree that the most recent “real life” data on covid deaths in Chile and Uruguay appear to support what Alex is saying?pic.twitter.com/5jalCP4IvP
