@wajoma saidA healthy person doesn’t sneeze and cough…
What a cop out, you know what was meant, but we'll clarify it for the pretend (we hope it's pretend) simple minded vivfy.
Can a healthy person (non covid) spread covid by (your prior post) 'sneezing' (now) 'merely breathing' (now including) and 'coughing'?
The incel wonder from way down under trips over his own nose stuck up his arse.
Again.

@shavixmir saidOf course healthy people cough and sneeze, many things can trigger a cough or sneeze for example pollen or other irritants.

shag doody has so bought into the fear he thinks every cough or sneeze is the killer flu out to get him. we should feel pity for him but this 'life is about avoiding death' anti-life philosophy is something he wallows in by choice and he wants you down in the same hole.

@mott-the-hoople saidThat sounds perfectly fair and reasonable why should air an ad from an organisation that is sponsored by corps that are advertising on the back of the Olympics.
like this?
“ "NBC refused to air my Olympics ad with @EnesFreedom unless we censor U.S. corporate logos of the Genocide Games sponsors," Waltz tweeted on Saturday. "We won't let them silence us."

Why would they run an ad criticising China which included logo ads that are actually sponsoring the Beijing games. Being a right wing scum bag is one thing but his hypocrisy on this occasion is staggeringly surreal.
NBC are raising Chinas human rights abuses in tandem with the coverage, if US athletes are competing that should be covered by a US media company.

@sh76 saidNo one can give you aids you have to catch it via your own actions.
So you give it to them one at a time by f'ing them. So what? It's the exact same principle.
A pretty stupid analogy that unnecessarily offers red meat to the homophobes on the right.

@no1marauder saidMaybe someone can check my math but whether it's 80% vaccinated and non-vaxxed 26 times more likely to die (NYC numbers) or 70% vaxxed and non-vaxxed 15 times more likely to die (US numbers), I still get a figure of around 13.3% of omicron COVID deaths are among the vaccinated. Since US deaths are slightly over 15,000 a week, that would mean right around 2,000 of those deaths are among the vaccinated.
You keep claiming that but omicron has been the dominant variant in the US for about 6 weeks and we're still averaging over 15,000 deaths a week. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us
Flu hasn't killed like that in over 100 years.
Your information is simply wrong and the governments of these two countries don't have to rely on such falsehoods.
EDIT ...[text shortened]... inated, you're still talking about more than a 1000 deaths of the vaccinated each week from omicron.
Numbers from: https://www.newsweek.com/unvaccinated-new-yorkers-26-times-more-likely-die-covid-omicron-peak-1674056
Hardly "invulnerable" as SH76 claimed.

canyou cite any data showing anyone died from omicron only? or for that matter, covid only?

@no1marauder saidsh: 1,000 deaths per week in the middle of the winter would be a mild (or at worst medium) flu season.
BS.
No1: BS.
How is that BS? Flu causes roughly 30,000 deaths in a GOOD year (except 2020-2021, when the flu took the year off) https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/index.html
These are concentrated in the winter. https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/index.htm
1,000 flu deaths per week in mid-winter would mean about 12,000 deaths over the entire peak flu season. Flu deaths in the summer are inconsequential.
This would be an excellent flu year, indeed. Even your revised estimate of 2,000 per week this time of year would make maybe an average flu season.

Really this "COVID isn't any worse than the flu" shtick didn't work for Eladar in May 2020 and you revisiting it isn't any more convincing now.
EDIT: How many people vaccinated for the flu die from it? I bet the number is miniscule.
