W.H.O.: It Is ‘Less Urgent to Vaccinate’ Children than
Excerpt: “... the W.H.O. urged adults — even those who have already contracted and recovered from the Chinese coronavirus — to take “whatever vaccine is made available to you first....”
Hey guys, what’s the rush? Are you under a deadline to eliminate we old zephyrs? Just asking for a friend..

The available data on the Delta variant shows it is not a serious threat. As I've posted elsewhere:
So the Delta variant is "surging" in India, they say?
https://covid19.who.int/region/searo/...
Orly? So where is that surge showing up in their official data? Oh right, they also said it was a massive problem in Israel, too. Maybe they meant there ...
https://covid19.who.int/region/euro/c...
Hmm ... well ... uh their own data doesn't show any such major surge.
What other important data is missing? How many people with prior infections got/get this new "variant"? They don't tell you it in the "news" reports, do they? How bad is it for those who allegedly get it?
I see they are only talking about people infected. Nothing about severity. Interesting. Wonder why that might be? Could it perhaps be ... deCEPTion? (Sorry, Carvey) (and now, Sorry Charlie :P ) After all, reasonable people would worry about getting terminally or seriously ill. But if they basically get lightly sick - or no worse than the flu - then they'll care much less and be less afraid.
So if they just report "cases" they can let you assume it is highly dangerous. Consider:
Monger: "We had 200 more cases today!"
Person: "OMG, how many died or had to be hospitalized?"
Monger: "... well ... none."
Person: "so ... why should I care?"
Monger: "...."
On the topic of severity, I've run across this: "It’s hoped that stepping up vaccinations will help stop the wild spread of the strain. Analysis from Public Health England released June 21 showed that two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech or the Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccines are highly effective against hospitalization from the delta variant."
and
"The new analysis found that two doses of the Pfizer vaccine were 96 percent effective against hospitalization from the Delta variant, and two doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine were 92 percent effective. " So they admit the hospitalization rate is not "threatening." But more still...
"The PHE analysis included 14,019 cases caused by the Delta variant in England — 166 of which resulted in hospitalizations — from April 12 to June 4." so a hospitalization rate of 166/14,019 or about 1.2% among those with the jabs.
Still nothing on people with natural immunity from exposure. One has to wonder why they aren't telling us those numbers after repeatedly telling us that getting it doesn't help you. Surely if the data supported it, we'd be seeing them report that data, right?
imo, they are concentrating on India because the absolute numbers should be high. India's 1.4 billion population and less developed sanitation in many areas may result in "normal" levels of disease to be higher, e.g., the numbers of Tuberculosis cases are high and TB 'deaths' inaccurately reported as 'from' covid can be used to boost the fear factor. India has a 'normal' daily death rate of 40,000 that can be used to mislead and ramp up fear.
I also read that some are recommending that adults who have gotten the J&J (non-mRNA) vaccine are being recommended to get a 'booster' of one of the mRNA vax's.
The push to get everyone injected with mRNA is just a bit too much for my comfort.
They all have vested interests that do not consider what is best for me.
I'll follow my own guidance, not theirs.
Well, it is worse. To make a decision you need data and background. Getting reliable and meaningful data is very difficult.
