>>13457325Gets off to a good start by making a distinction between infection efficacy/effectiveness and hospitalization efficacy/effectiveness, a distinction lost to many based&redpilled types. Clearly this is a pro-vaxxer.
The math on the "hospitalized?" line looks iffy to me, though. Has it been established that 10% of unvaccinated people who get infected will be hospitalized? Not too critical, I suppose, since it's just following a vaccination baseline, and if anything, the point would be made more strongly if you reduced that number to an anti-vax-friendly 1. But on the other side of the tree, how do they derive the numbers 5 and 445 from 450? 10% of 450 is obviously 45, not 5.
The overall point is still valid. If we have 1 or 10 hospitalizations on the left and 45 hospitalizations on the right, we have a situation in which 45/46 or 45/55 hospitalized people are vaccinated.
The point is also made using these figures:
50% of Americans vaccinated (actual figure)
50% efficacy/effectiveness against infection (is this actually true? might be lower)
90% efficacy/effectiveness against hospitalization (seems to be an estimate
based on reported lows in the 80s and reported highs in the high 90s)
