If Trump Were President, Not One Democrat in America Would Be Vaccinated

   “But do COVID-19 vaccines actually prevent hospitalizations? In Israel, doctors report as many as 95% of patients hospitalized are vaccinated. If Trump were president, would anyone be getting vaccinated anymore after hearing those numbers?”

     That’s a misleading quote. The usual lack of scrutiny on use of statistics that you find everywhere.

     In Israel, 100% of patients hospitalized are humans.
     But in Israel, nearly 100% of its citizens are vaccinated.
     So OF COURSE, most of its hospital patients will be vaccinated too.

     The question is … is 95% higher or lower than the actual vaccination rate.
     If they are the same, then there is NO STATISTICAL DIFFERENCE between vaxx’d and unvaxx’d in terms of hospitalization rate. If the vax rate is 94%, then you have a GREATER CHANCE of hospitalization if Unvaxx’d. If the rate is 96%, you are slightly better off not being vaxx’d.

       pedro_deleon said we need to compare the overall nation’s vax rate to the hospital vax rate to garner any meaning/interpretation to this particular stat. He is 100% correct.

       In Isreal the overall vax rate is 62.5% according to https://ourworldindata.org/vaccination-israel-impact

       But the hospitalization rate is 95% for vaxxxxed.

       Does that not imply you’d be better off UNVAXXXXED? -or- am I crazy/confused?

       Please keep your readers/commentators honest.

       Thanks
