[2021-8-31. : 3:32 am] Ultraviolet -- amount of virus in their nasal passages as unvaccinated people. Part of the reason they're recommending masks for everybody. Anyway, like I said at the end of the topic, I don't want to argue this anymore. It's obvious I'm not going to convince you all and you're not going to convince me. I shouldn't have taken the initial bait, just hard not to respond to stuff about horse dewormer and whatnot. Annoying since it's used in humans just as much as livestock, just at much smaller dosages.[2021-8-31. : 3:28 am] Ultraviolet -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: Ultraviolet I can't really take your word on mortality benefit since you lean so heavily on AFD, you'll have to be specific about which study/which figures you get that from, some of the trials data I'm looking at shows the opposite: 4 deaths in placebo, 2 in vaccine (none definitively connected to vaccine or placebo), but regardless, comparing vaccine vs placebo deaths is definitely incomplete in a way that you can't resolve in a generalized manner - you need to factor in the mortality of covid, your own chances of getting it with or without the vaccine, and the chances you'll have spread it before you're over it https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2034577?query=recirc_curatedRelated_article https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.28.21261159v1.full.pdf https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.28.21261159v1.supplementary-material Pfizer's 6 month safety and efficacy trial. They report in one place what percentage of study participants were obese, but it's not a part of the comorbidities index. There was only 1 participant who died of COVID in the vaccinated group and only 2 participants who died of COVID in the unvaccinated group. They didn't report comorbidities for either these or for people who fell seriously ill with COVID. That's important data to me, if only obese people or people with respiratory issues or other serious health issues fall seriously ill or die, then the vaccine isn't of benefit to me. No one has shown me a study proving the COVID vaccines are efficacious at reducing transmissibility. I'm not interested in trials that hint at effectiveness.

And didn't show any mortality benefit (more people actually died in the vaccine group than the placebo group) I don't really want to comment on study quality, I'm not a scientist nor a qualified public health official whose job it is to do meta analysis of hundreds of studies - but looking at obesity a little in phase2/3 data: they recorded BMI, they placed equal percentages of obese participants in test and control groups, I'm sure whatever analysis you're looking for concerning obesity is derivable (and probably done somewhere) if not directly spelled out in study conclusions[2021-8-31. : 1:13 am] jjf28 -- UltravioletUltraviolet shouted: jjf28 Debatable, the vaccine efficacy trials didn't study transmissibility. I read through Pfizer's trials and they were a piss poor example of a study. Didn't even include obesity as a comorbidity factor. And didn't show any mortality benefit (more people actually died in the vaccine group than the placebo group) afaik reducing transmissibility in people who still get the disease isn't usually the goal of vaccines, it's to prevent people who get the vaccine from getting the disease (thus lowering the r0 in the population and decreasing the spread) it's shown in many studies to have high efficacy/to do that quite well; however I grab a few studies - not part of the original trials and premature to use in arguments until they get through peer review and all - that hint that vaccines *also* reduce transmissibility (by decreasing viral load in some that looked at that specifically, by the numbers in another) in people who still get covid[2021-8-31. : 12:34 am] Ultraviolet -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: Ultraviolet doesn't prevent spreading infection just like seatbelts don't prevent death in car accidents Debatable, the vaccine efficacy trials didn't study transmissibility.
