  1.  @carlosbohorquez9283  They are much higher, dying at home or care homes are not included. Numbers are not important on their own it's trends. The modelling so far from Imperial has been spot on. If we isolate then we can slow the spread. If we decide we know more than the scientists because a conspiracy is more interesting and relax then it will continue to spread.

  2. Nice tribute.

  3.  @markrb9152  Made in a lab is possible just not probable, what about 1918?

  4.  @adpmac3981  Check out a RELIABLE source of information like the PHE or UKHSA (the new PHE) For the numbers. Have a look at the deaths for under 40, hint, it's not zero
    2
  5.  @prideofdurham4776  Yeah and 146,000 people have died
    1
  6. Eh? You know that a vaccine is not like narcotics right?
    1
  7.  @MarkErrington  Yeah because you're a virologist and we should trust you.

  8. @tim reeves It's most likely natural

  9. yeah you decide what Science is best for you, that will work

  10.  @matarfauchi7149  Eh? How old are you? 8?

  11.  @SkuStyle  why is that?

  12.  @martynjukes482  No you have this wrong. There is Scientific consensus, COVID 19 is a dangerous lethal virus. The vaccines work with different degrees of efficacy. These are facts. Your opinion on this stuff is completely irrelevant, guess what? So in the individual Scientists opinion. They mean squat unless that opinion is parceled up into a study and the results published and peer reviewed. This is why Yeadons and anyone elses views are worthless unless they are discussing the published literature. Whether you have the Vaccine or not, it's up you, just do not tell it's based on any sort of science consensus. Is the Vaccine safe? The data says yes, will you develop myocardial issues? Statistically? Very low probability. Compare heart lung and clotting issues with COVID19 and the Vaccine.

  13.  @martynjukes482  What do you know about the studies with children? What is the data telling us?
    1
  14.  @martynjukes482  No I'm not a Marxist. You are not bothered by any of that you are bothered by the fact the Scientific consensus does not agree with you and I am pointing it out. VERY VERY few points have been made by anti vaxers that have ANY basis in Science.

  15.  @martynjukes482  Clotting is about 1/100,000 for a vaccine accident (Zeneca) what are the chances are a clot with COVID19? DEATH with COVID19 is what? 1/100? 1/500? Why would you avoid a 1/100,000 chance of a vaccine accident but happily embrace a 1/500 chance of death from COVID19?
    1
  16.  @martynjukes482  Ok shall we say anti vaxer on these Vaccines for covid?
    1
  17.  @martynjukes482  Do young people die from COVID19? Yes. Measurable rates? You mean high numbers? Depends what you mean that. First wave killed 25 children in the UK, so two a month. Not a lot compared to the over 70s but a lot if it's your kid. How many children have been hospitalised? Many more than that certainly in the states if you check the CDC, when I say more I mean proportionally. Long COVID19 is poorly understood if you manage to come out of hospital.

  18.  @martynjukes482  Natural immunity is great yes, just the downside of death with that.
    1
  19.  @martynjukes482  Vaccine does stop the spread yes. I don't have a masters. Just a bachelors
    1
  20.  @martynjukes482  Judge the arguments which are based on the Science easily checked and zero to do with me. I don't know why you keep you keep going back to me. If you want to discuss the details with published academics then go on physics forums. You can get all the papers there.
    1
  21.  @martynjukes482  I have already illustrated to you that the risk from the Vaccine is dwarfed by the risk from COVID19.
    1
  22.  @martynjukes482  Natural immunity carries a risk, severe and lasting illness and death. Also how would you know that Delta immunity protects you from Omicron?
    1
  23.  @martynjukes482  of course it does but I did not say 100%, if you are walking around with the live virus Ill you are spreading the virus. If you are immunised you are Ill for a lot less in terms of days. If EVERYONE is immunized the virus is halted many fold. AGAIN just read the published data.

  24. Yeah that's how Science works, the dislike button

  25.  @Tubbothedwarf  What he has the media got to do with virology?
    1
  26.  @Tubbothedwarf  99.99% survival? Where did you get that number? 129000 dead in the UK from about 5 million confirmed PCR cases

  27. @Pink Rose and the science?
    1
  28.  @SSJfraz  Don't be silly 99 of his own MPs voted against him on an issue.

  29. Yeah it's like when we had an issue with Poliomyelitis then they vaccinated everyone then polio went away. It's like magic or something.
    1
  30.  @martynjukes482  I am making a reference to Vaccine technology, it works. The only spreading fear and nonsense are the Scientifically illiterate conspiracy people. Do you guys still think COVID19 is spread by G4?
    1
  31.  @martynjukes482  Covid 19 is a dangerous virus, referring to it as a cold makes you come across as someone profoundly ignorant.

  32. @Julius Streicher Sterling here.
    1
  33.  @martynjukes482  Do you guys still think the Vaccine makes you magnetic? Or that there are nano transmitters in the jab? Remind me who is spreading fear again?

  34.  @dronespace  Mine was free

  35.  @martynjukes482  How do you know you had it?

  36.  @adpmac3981  Everyone who has died is 80 plus? Really?
    1
  37.  @adpmac3981  Nope, it's called a vaccine as per the seasonal flu VACCINE. When I travel I have Vaccines, had as a student as a teenager and baby.
    1
  38.  @martynjukes482  Positive test?? I thought Cullis said they don't work? That's what the anti vaxers said. You changing your mind on that?

  39.  @martynjukes482  130 million jabs in the UK. It's safe. Look at the data.
    1
  40.  @adpmac3981  One small problem from 'natural'immunity or getting COVID19. Death.
    1
  41.  @kaddyleigh2411  Not a science major are you. The Vaccine has reduced death to a tenth pre Vaccine levels. The Vaccine works.

  42.  @leefair9598  My old man's a mushroom
    1
  43.  @dronespace  Over 300 people died from COVID19 yesterday.
    1
  44.  @adpmac3981  Fear porn but Covid is spread by 5G is.......? What? How about Bill Gates tracking everyone via transmitters in the Vaccine? But I'm spreading fear. Ok

  45. @UC0IwUUcYYRrIsVfzTsB0jnw Citation please.
    1
  46. @UC0IwUUcYYRrIsVfzTsB0jnw In football? Wow. So this was never an issue before Covid? What about this from 2012? Results 126 of 170 questionnaires were returned (response rate 74.1%), and 103 questionnaires (60.6%) were completed sufficiently to include in further analysis. Overall, 107 cases of SCA/SCD and 5 unexplained football-associated sudden deaths were reported. These events occurred in 52 of 103 responding associations (50.5%). 23 of 112 (20.5%) footballers survived. 12 of 22 (54.5%) players treated with an available automated external defibrillators (AED) on the pitch survived. A national registry to monitor cardiac events was established in only 18.4% of the associations. Most associations (85.4%) provide regular cardiac screening for their national teams while 75% screen teams of the national leagues. An AED is available at all official matches in 68% of associations.

  47.  @adpmac3981  I don't know which conspiracy you support. They all say different things. I just follow the published literature. That's it
    1
  48.  @martynjukes482  Nope, I follow the science, that's it. It's my education, job, the way I approach life.
    1
  49.  @dronespace  Probably a lot have and will die because of Covid yes.
    1
  50.  @leefair9598  Ha ha, yes the guys who are educated professional Scientists and academics with experience in medicine are sheep and the guys with zero qualifications or experience on Facebook Twitter and Instagram know the truth! You guys are funny.
    1
  51.  @dronespace  Covid is a serious disease and the Vaccine has been developed to stop it. That's it. People with cancer are going to die when they should not and that is a tragedy, my heart goes out to them.
    1
  52.  @adpmac3981  Yes stop it, the pandemic. We are in a pandemic. Do you dispute that as well?
    1
  53.  @martynjukes482  Nope, I'm in Costa coffee having a brew, day off pub later. Jabbed plus Covid last month. I'm in good shape. What's to fear. When you shift your argument from the issue to me personally that tells me something about your argument.
    1
  54.  @leefair9598  A lot of people will die yet unfortunately yes.
    1
  55.  @martynjukes482  Natural immunity? Yes it works, just that one draw back of death.
    1
  56.  @martynjukes482  1%? Yeah could be now, could be 2%. What is your point? That 1% is ok to let go? Write them off? What's 1% of 7.8 billion?
    1
  57.  @martynjukes482  99% recovery? Who told you that? The Lancet? One thing I find strange is that some Science seems ok and is acceptable and other science is not. When you pick and choose your data like this you end up with a skewed view of what is really going on.
    1
  58.  @martynjukes482  No. Now I'm a technologist. I use the science I don't make it. If you do not trust me that's fine, just address my points instead.
    1
  59.  @martynjukes482  In terms of research? No it does work like that. The conclusions are not 100%, Science does not work like that. What you get is consensus. The consensus is that COVID 19 is a dangerous lethal virus. The vaccines developed work. The evidence for both these statements is overwhelming so there is consensus. Omicron, based on early data appears to be less severe. Omicron transmits very readily so there will be and are many more cases. We are approaching 200,000 cases per day in the UK. This WILL lead to more hospital cases.

  61.  @S1monVinyl  Eh? Do you understand immunology?

  62. It's not a cold
    1
  63.  @martynjukes482  Not it really isn't. Over 300 people died yesterday. It's not a cold. Where did you study Science? Can I ask that?
    1
  64.  @mattoneill9003  It's a Corona virus, specifically a SARS causing virus, a serious respiratory illness that can lead to death. As per SARS in 2002 and MERS in 2012. Next question.

  65.  @martynjukes482  Remember the nonsense about PCR? Cullis? Yeah like the anti vaxers have the first clue about Biochemistry or what PCR does, is.

  66.  @ryszard68  Are you in a position to critique a scientific paper? On epidemiology? Virology? Molecular biology? Do you have any clue regarding biological statistical modelling? What was your view on the Imperial paper?

  67.  @ryszard68  All you need to know is isolate, you don't have to be a scientist.

  69. Thats how vaccines work.

  70.  @martynjukes482  Seasonal flu, annual jab. Plus you obviously do not have kids, just check the Vaccine bulletin that has been in place for decades. Next question.
    1
  71.  @asseyez-vous6492  Had my full course as a baby second round then boosters. Never had TB POLIOMYELITIS etc etc. Perhaps these Science guys know what they are talking about and the anti vaxers with zero Science qualifications or lab/medical experience.......don't!

  72. @Josh V You don't understand the science do you. Check out a NORMAL Vaccine bulletin for a baby. Guess what? It's not one jab. Also look up Clostridium tetani

  75.  @martynjukes482  I'm not a genius I studied hard. 1989 first job was Science officer in NMR. You can check me out on physics forums IF you are interested in real Science. I'm a technologist now NOT a Scientist.

  76.  @martynjukes482  They are claims? Ok, that's fine. I am interested in the published literature not claims.

  77. @Josh V 4 A levels too. Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Art with Art History. I'm 55 now, no reason to lie to you.

  78.  @martynjukes482  I have read some of the Yeadon stuff and don't get it. It would be interesting to get his view now the Vaccine has been proven to be effective.

  79. @Josh V Join me on Physics forums?

  80.  @martynjukes482  Just cite the study, Lancet BMJ Nature Journal of molecular biology/virology UKHSA PHE a respected journal. ' I saw this thing on Facebook' is NOT Science.

  81.  @martynjukes482  No not to see me, there are verified Scientists on there. You can ask questions.

  82.  @martynjukes482  Science worked out all of those things were bad. Science is just a method it's not a 'thing'. It improves, it's how you can have a conversation with me right now.
    1
  83.  @martynjukes482  Yes. I'm 55, too old to lie. I'm not a genius I didn't go to Oxford. I worked hard. Join me on Physics forums? I'm a tech, working scientists on there.

  84.  @martynjukes482  If I am unqualified would my arguments be less open to enquiry? No. Exactly the same. I am qualified and I am a technologist. On PF you get the real deal. It's free! Just join and ask them.

  87.  @adpmac3981  I said 'in place' for decades. The science changes, the technology changes the recommendations changes as more information becomes available. HPV and COVID 19 now available for example. 70 years ago very little available. See also cancer, respiratory illness diabetes heart disease etc etc
