Even if your thoughts or intents weren't dishonest, it looks like you're just sort of sorting by vax rate and then citing the case rate. Given that you made the mistake with Gibraltar, why should we trust what you're showing us, since it looks like you're cherry picking and misunderstanding stats?
unlike many public health authorities, grujicd is forming a hypothesis and showing a method to attempt to prove said hypothesis. If you don't like it, you can suggest your own.
In this way, a reader can deduce what they believe is the closest truth available rather than it be shouted down at them. The fact that grujicd did not interpret Gibraltar data accurately is, I believe in this case, not a mark against them but a testament to how well they formulated their argument that flaws can be evaluated easily.
public health authorities on the other hand will begrudgingly hand over data after months of outcry, as well as change testing criteria and engage in many other methods of purposeful/accidental obfuscation, making their arguments hard to decipher.
It's a stretch to call it a hypothesis and certainly you can't use data like this to prove anything. There are far too many variables for this to be scientifically discussed on a hacker chat board.
I can't really help you if your opinion is that public health authorities are working in bad faith.
That's exactly what I'm doing. Isn't that the best way to see how high vaccination affects spread?
You're free to present different numbers, but please don't cite anything pre-Omicron since it's not relevant any more.
Once more, my case is that current vaccines are not a way to stop spread and therefore vaccinating low-risk population like kids won't protect the elders. I fully support vaccination for self benefits. As I did for myself.
I can't cite anything pre-Omicron since it's not relevant? Anything? Many attributes of the strains share common things (for example both are not retroviruses, can I cite that?)
It looks like the mainstream health authorities have shared up to date information on the protection against infection by omicron by vaccines. If that's the case, doesn't it mean that vaccinating kids would protect elders?
