Your theory is lost when factoring in concern for others: elders that don't want the vaccine(given treatment is available but being suppressed), while a treatment that had won the Nobel was being suppressed vaccine missions to third world countries were halted(those poor children, so that's elders and children), blood clots in adults(?). Mandatory vaccination, your theory falls apart at, mandatory vaccination(of an untested vaccine for an never treated, rather, not allowed to be treated virus) And how many of those 1:500 died with and not of covid?

The best example of that helmet one is very real. The metal helmets introduced in WWI decreased casualties in the sense of deaths, but causalities include injuries that take you out of the war so there was actually an increase in casualties because while deaths went down, the number of non-life threatening injuries went up. So, statistically, the safer metal helmets increased causalities, but they actually increased the safety of the soldiers despite the statistics.

To expound on the base rate fallacy: 28% of car accidents involved alcohol. This doesn't mean that sober drivers are more likely to crash than drunk drivers. It just means on any given 7-day period, there are more sober drivers than drunk drivers. Drunk driving for the most part only occurs Friday and Saturday nights. Sober drivers drive all 7 days. Even though most car accidents don't involve alcohol, you are far more likely to crash when drunk than sober.

@@chrishaven1489 I never said anything bad on vaccines. So not sure why you put the second part Researched it myself, death rate is super complicated and can easily lead to false assumptions. So in some countries it's 1.2%, some it's 10%. (And also depends on who it targets) Ie. 700k dead may be. 650k old/immunocompromised/bed-ridden people. My main concern is lockdowns. (My country is still on lockdown, no real re-opening) Why should 90% of population be on lockdown when only the 10% is on any real danger. If anything, a logical solution is to identify these high risks, vaccinate and keep them on quarantine And let everyone else (vaccinated) go on with their lives. I'd like to have a breakdown of deaths by known high-risk. (But again researched it. It's not as simple as getting ratios to avoid fallacies)

@@stonedmountainunicorn9532 Well in my country of Philippines (Roughly 1.2% death rate) Im vaccinated and 20s. And still have restrictions (al fresco dining is at 30%) Weekly cases are down to 50k (from 100k just a month ago) Last i Checked. My city is already 99% of target population vaccinated. (Non-essential Workers+high-risk) And last I heard. Starting for general vaccination To be fair. Our vaccine mostly came from China. (Probably the weakest vaccine of them all. Some countries don't even considered that brand of vaccine to be vaccinated. And still has to go through stricter procedures for getting into those countries despite technically vaccinated) But I took it cuz it's better than nothing. (And still 80% less risk for hospitalizations) That was around June or July. Now im seeing vaccines having less strength in 6 months (even on the good vaccines) And natural immunity is better It's almost December/January and still on lockdown/quarantined. So what was that vaccine for? It probably did help. Part of me thinks a better policy is for some vaccinated people be allowed to go out. This is what will lead to continuous natural immunity. No need for booster shots when my booster is known as risk being infected before the 6 month vaccine expiry starts. Again. Why should 90% of non-dangerous people still be in lockdown when the real danger is only at 10%? Why lockdown us 90% when we got vaccinated and waste the precious 6 month gap as an opportunity to get natural immunity?

I've come to think these videos just help reinforce an unintentional echo chamber of like-minded people. I know that sounds cynical, but there's not much in the common person to be hopeful about. Seems like the past 5 years has been a precipitous and steady decline of human intelligence and willingness to be persuaded by facts. We're living in Nicolas Negroponte's "The Daily Me".

Today in Ontario, we had 192 breakthrough cases and 300 on the unvaccinated side. However, that means about 1 case for every 55,400 vaccinated people vs 11,485 unvaccinated. But the severity of the disease is where you see the real difference. The hospitalization rate was 1 in 247,200 for the vaccinated vs 1 for 32,200 for the unvaccinated. As for ICU cases, the difference was even more dramatic: 1 ICU case for every 708,600 vs 1 for every 47,200. Vaccines work!

When the first thing this video does is gaslight people about the definition of vaccine and what it does, I can say "Chicken Noodle Soup is a vaccine, and it works." Why can I say that? Because the bar for what a vaccine is was lowered from "Granting immunity" to "reducing symptoms and improving patient outcomes." How many boosters do people need for the 'old' diseases like measles and polo? Three? Four? Ten? No, it was one; and just one. Vaccines provided a lifetime of protection because your immune system is what's providing that protection. You get a disease and recover from it your body will be able to defend against it for the rest of your life or until your immune system gets weakened. Yet look around, what are you being told? That vaccines are your only hope, and nothing about your own immune system. Hell, the idea of natural immunity itself is being attacked. This isn't to mention that people do have their reasons for not getting vaccinated: The primary one being that their immune system is already weak, or other pre-existing conditions that makes vaccines riskier; which means a doctor would not recommend getting a vaccine. IE: A population of people who are highly susceptible to risk of hospitalization in the first place. You can't just take a correlation and then assume causation, yet that's what so many people are doing. If you actually care about "science" then what you should be doing is trying to prove yourself wrong, not prove yourself right.

@@rahn45 I feel tired just reading your comment. Let's start with the weirdest one, "Chicken Noodle Soup is a vaccine" - no, by definition, it is not. Chicken noodle soup is a meal, and may provide relief from feeling ill, but there's no mechanism of action that equates it to a vaccine. You can't even call it medication; at best it's a "supplement" Vaccines, at least modern ones, have never had the bar of "granting immunity"; they just don't work like that. Natural "Immunity" doesn't provide immunity either; maybe prolonged resistance, but not outright immunity. Some vaccines for certain disease tend to induce longer term immunity, perhaps long enough to be considered a lifetime, which brings me to the next point. Equating the Measles virus to the current CoV-2 virus is like equating an iguana to a dolphin; they don't even belong in the same phylum, and naturally, evolution will have lead them down different paths. Even within the coronaviruses itself, there's amazing variance in infectiousness, specificity, and lethality. Even the SARS-CoV-1 virus of 2004, arguably the closest analog to SARS-CoV-2, is drastically different. Dogs, cats, and pigs all have their own strains of coronaviruses, and none have caused major disease outbreaks in humans despite our proximity. Will that change? Possibly. But they are not the same thing, so the immune system's reaction to it would not be the same. Would you equate COVID-19 to HIV? Herpes? Rabies? In other words, where one vaccine may confer a lifetime resistance to a particular disease, it doesn't mean a vaccine will do the same for another. Vaccines are a relatively safe way to induce your natural immunity to start working, as opposed to "rolling the dice", as it were, with suffering through the actual disease itself. As we learn more about this particular virus by buying ourselves time to do so, we come up with different pre-and-post-exposure prophylaxes. The people for whom vaccines are not recommended due to being immunocompromised is the prime example of why those of us who can, should. They rely on us for their safety, their protection. We are their line of defense against catching this disease themselves. Many of them have had to wait on treatment and medical attention specifically because the anti-vax population is taking up hospital space. The fact you're insinuating that they're to blame is frankly shameful.

The way I imagine dangerous variants arising is, each infected person is playing the lottery. The chances for any one person to get the 'virus jackpot' and generate a really dangerous variant is very low. But as the number of people getting infected, and getting sick and infecting others, goes up, then the number of people playing the lottery also goes up. The chances of that rare mutation happening when 1 billion people are playing the lottery are greater than if only 100 people are.

Because if we aren't aware about what we are uncertain about we cannot find out what is actually going on. And also there is the fact that for all things learned through science. Uncertainty can be very low. But never zero. So any truth can be challanged. Nothing is holy in science. Just more or less certain. And the science of vaccines is certain enough to get my support.

Correlation is not causation! The above line is crucial to science! My math teacher taught me this when I was 14 years old. His example was that there a proportionate relation to the amount of sold ice cream to drowning cases, ergo ice cream leads to drowning. Today I am electrical engineer, and when I am at family dinners or parties, and I hear people make this presumption(correlation is not causation), it’s important not to belittle them but kindly explain that their focal point is compromised by their optic. I think that we have all made this error of perception at one point, so don’t belittle others that do the same. ❤️❤️❤️ - love this channel!

The central method of science is the attempt to prove your theory wrong. The more attempts against it that fail, the more reassured that you're close to the truth. Thing is when it comes to this particular topic the question I find myself asking is "If it doesn't grant immunity, then how can it be considered a vaccine?" It's the most obvious question that was dodged in this video with "Well no vaccine is 100% effective" ignoring decades of science behind vaccines that grant that full immunity for a lifetime. How many booster shots does one need for measles? Polio? Or the other 'old world' diseases that have been treated with vaccines? It's almost like the immunity is granted through our immune systems, and the idea behind a vaccine is to teach our immune system how to fight said disease without getting sick. That the only time immunity isn't gained is due to a weakened of dysfunctional immune system. With that idea behind vaccines in mind what are we seeing? People getting sick from the vaccine and people getting sick despite being vaccinated. That the narrative has become "Well you get less sick" instead of "You don't get sick" If the requirement for something to be a vaccine is "less sick" then Chicken Noodle Soup is a vaccine.

@@MastalinkZ I completely agree with the first point. The flu vaccine is changed due to it rapidly evolving every year. So, far Covid hasn't does so and the most recent version is the Delta variant. Yet, people still need to get booster shots rather than a different vaccine due to it evolving like the flu. (It wouldn't be a completely different vaccine for Covid due to how it works, but it shouldn't require boosters while Covid hasn't evolved.)

More infectious does not mean more deadly. The recent variants are less deadly but more infectious. The common cold is another corona virus made up of multiple variants. Once deadly it has mutated to a more benign variant. This is the norm for a virus as it mutates to survive.

It's kind of misleading because the definition of a COVID death is extremely loose. A COVID death is ANY death that happens within 28 days of positive test and it doesn't matter if your COVID diagnosis is what lead to your death. No one has combed through the data to see what the number of people who actually died due to covid complications really is and likewise we have excess deaths and some of those excess deaths are COVID deaths we are missing (though it's wrong to label them ALL as COVID deaths like some experts do). Point is measuring the true number of deaths from this pandemic is very difficult
