Your link is from 2 plus months before mine. We've learned quite a bit since then and seen Delta in numerous countries and thus know much more.

with the delta overtaking as the dominant strain, deaths are lower (the latest UK numbers I saw indicated the fatality rate dropped to 0.2 percent or lower) and in addition, symptoms have shifted away from the classic covid symptoms.. I'm speaking facts, which you don't seem to know any of just like you falsely claimed a much lower LA vaccination number than actually is the case.

Problem; You argued by weblink, and did not specifically cite the reference to support your argument.

What you cited here does not reach the conclusions you claim You need a scientific of medical reference reference that actually states that the Delta variant is less verilantordeadly than the previous variants. The figures above can be easily explained by increased effectiveness of treatments over time.Glendower: I can call spirits from the vasty deep.

The references I gave and citing your references were very clear; the symptoms were ONLY milder for those who were fully vaccinated.
Your quotation of my source didn't have anything to do with our conversation.
And no, my source was very clear the symptoms are milder for people, vaccinated or not (indeed, primarily for unvaccinated, as they're the ones more likely to get it if they have no natural immunity).

I already cited the reference. If you cannot read, that's your problem.

Look, I understand, you've bought fully into the fearmongering that the media has fed you. I get it. But the rest of us do not live in fear of covid or its lesser variants. I already had it. It sucked. I got better. Now I have natural immunity. Meanwhile the chuckleheads at teh CDC are backpeddling yet again and removing one of the few reasons people had to get the vaccine (not having to wear masks). The longer you let them keep you in fear, the more hold they'll have over you. Wake up.Last edited by Gondwanaland; 07-27-2021, 07:31 PM.
