Yep. Folks have created an overly constrained problem with no soln.


Let alone, the future logic for not shutting down and masking in the future for every flu season or predicted pandemic bug.

Unless someone wishes to take a position xx thousand deaths are "acceptable". Then further explain how one would know it isnt more (or less) than the "acceptable" line at the very beginning of the break out.

What is the # today, 99.7% that catch it, survive according to cdc and ww figures? (IFR).

if say half actually take the vax (being generous with the 42% value cited), and the vax is "in family effectiveness" with the yearly flu vax (~50%), that leaves 25%. 99.7 to 99.775%.

Yes, i know. Those that would care to run the #s would say something like: that would save 250k people's lives!

Then again, lets ponder real world without a vax: (more recent data has daily deaths ain low tens to single digits (!) In sweden.
