And the sore arm thing, I dont even think is the vaccines fault.
Its just your muscle complaining about getting a needle jabbed into it.
Yeah, its basically gone within 24hours.

The little extra tiredness, is probably just your immune system learning to fight the virus.
Which again, comes on like a day later, and you barely notice it.

I remember as a Kid I used to be terrified of needles.
Overall getting vaccinated, now as a adult, wasnt nearly as bad as I expected.
(kid version of myself blew things waaay outta purprotion, its just a tiny jab lol)

"I guess everyone's body just reacts differently."

However we basically had the same experiance.
a day with slightly sore arm (day of jab) and then following day, a slight bit more tired, after that, everything back to normal.

I suspect the vast majority of people that get vaccinated have the same outcome.
The people that get like alergic reactions, or bad symptoms, are the very rare outcomes.

"I was expecting more of a kick from it after so many friends an family told me that the second dose hits like a truck."

^ this.

People on the internet, made me expect the 2nd jab, to be the one that actually did something.
(ei. hit like a truck) (I kept thinking maybe I just got lucky, with the first jab, the 2nd one will def. be worse)

I chuck it up to people posting crap on the internet lol.
(or maybe its because Im only in my 30s, and generally healthy? I dont know)

Ka-Pi96 :  "Nope, not vaccinated. Japan sucks when it comes to providing the vaccine."

Yeah that sucks to hear.
You'll get natural immunity now instead :) (always look on the bright side)

Also if your feeling that bad, tell your boss, your not well enough to go to the hospital for a test.
I think its the "right" thing to do as well, like you said, why risk infecting others.

Testing is flat-ish at about 1 million a day. The positivity rate was rising while cases were rising, with the last available data being the seven days up to the 19th, which already shows a significant slowdown in the rate of increase.

Doesnt that picture show that from around July 1st, it was around 6% positivity rate, and by the end of it (data on chart) its around 13%-14% ?
That chart seems to show its on a upward trend no?

Anyways, I watched this:  "UK hospital admissions will rise"

That was what lead me to believe, things where getting worse in the UK, with infections.

It seems we have increased "covid-deaths" by about 40% in summer 2021 vs. summer 2020. Nearly all risk-groups are vaccinated and with the promised 95% efficiency so we should be close to zero covid-deaths by now but the opposite is happening.

I bet that Sweden with high natural immunity and low vaxx rate will be better of in the long run than most countries with lockdowns and vaxxing.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

Well most deaths are currently coming from countries with very low vax rates. Swedens vax rate isn't particularly low. 

Sweden is at like 60% with 1jab, and 38% with 2jabs.

They have around "1,438 deaths pr million" due to covid.
Thats actually better than the USA's ~1900 deaths pr million.
(thats ontop of the USA, under reporting actual numbers abit)


Still I think plenty of countries have done better than sweden.

In Denmark we currently have 70,5% vaccinated with 1 shot, and 60,5% are fully vaccinated.
We only reached "437 deaths pr million".  (deaths are now few and far between)

Currently denmark has 59 people hospitalised for covid, 10 people in the ICU (6 of which are on ventilators).
Positivity rate, in testing is around 0.9%.

-------------- Also Numberwang, what country is that picture from?

I assumed it was the USA's?
But if I go and look at worldometers.info , under USA, the daily death chart looks very differnt.
You guys currently only have like 150 deaths pr day.

I remember seeing the USA have like 3000-5000 deaths pr day, at one point.
Obviously things are better now.

Also I remember hearing that something like 97% of all hospitalsations in the USA, for covid, are from unvaccinated people.
99,5% of deaths due to covid, are from unvaccinated.

The vaccine works.
The issue, is alot of people in the USA are anti vaxxers, that refuse to take the vaccine.

*edit:
USA only has 49% fully vaccinated currently.
Obviously the issue is the other 51%.

The graph is global "covid deaths". The risk groups (above 75 and morbid) are nearly completely vaxxed in every country around the world and yet "covid deaths" are increasing globally compared to last summer. You could cherry pick individual countries and time frames but the general trend is clear, more lockdowns and more vaxxes mean more covid deaths. Always compare summer to summer and winter to winter to get a more accurate comparison without seasonality effect.

The seasonal decline from winter to summer has been rebranded as vaccine success in the northern hemisphere but the southern hemisphere is doing worse than last winter and many countries in the north are experiencing summer waves now which did not happen in summer 2020 at all.

Your lack of knowledge and childish conclusions are always a joy to watch.

I mean nothing you wrote makes any sense or is just flat out wrong for obvious reasons but it's good for a laugh at least.

Looking at "covid deaths" in Brazil. They had a massive explosion of "covid deaths" following the introducing of the vaxx in January 2020. March-July 2021 were much worse compared to the same time frame in 2020.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/brazil/

So its brazil?

The virus mutated, and you got a more dangerous variant meanwhile.
Also, Brazil has like 45% with 1 vaccine shot, and 17% fully vaccinated.

Also Brazil numbers, of death are so inaccurate, you basically cant really use them.

Why are things bad in brazil?

Covid-19: Why have deaths soared in Brazil?  - April 9th 2021

^ Once your hospital system cant help people, with beds, oxygen, meds, ect.... numbers of death climb.
