As previously reported, this wave started in MID-APRIL. Like all increases, it is slow at first. Now it is starting to become very noticeable. If you want to take action, it is best to do so at the beginning, before it explodes.

Friska äldre har mindre nytta av covidvaccination - LäkemedelsVärlden Covidvaccination är mindre kostnadseffektivt för äldre som inte tillhör en medicinsk riskgrupp, visar Folkhälsomyndigheten nya utvärdering.

The current recommendations feel outdated and fail to capture the full picture of this disease's ongoing threat. We should be prioritizing prevention, not just cost-cutting.
We need to clean up the air! It should be as natural as clean water.

Instead of just counting direct healthcare costs, we need a broader view that includes the true societal cost of widespread illness and disability. A QALY isn't just about avoiding a hospital stay; it's about preserving a life of full health.

The focus on short-term cost-effectiveness and hospital visits is short-sighted. Preventing even mild cases of COVID-19 can reduce the risk of Long COVID and its immense, life-altering impact. The best way to avoid Long COVID is to avoid getting infected in the first place.

The analysis assumes vaccine protection against symptoms is around 55% and hospitalization is 67%. But what about protection against long-term, debilitating illness that keeps people from work, school, and their daily lives?

We know from other research that Long COVID is a serious risk. For example, recent data suggests that about 4% of vaccinated people and 8% of unvaccinated people get Long COVID. That's a huge potential cost, both for the individual and for society.

The study itself admits to uncertainties, such as a large number of infections going unregistered and the long-term impact of post-COVID and side effects being unclear. But these aren't minor details—they're crucial factors.

But here’s my problem with this analysis. It focuses heavily on direct costs and hospitalizations (QALYs), largely ignoring the significant long-term effects of COVID-19, like Long COVID. This is a massive blind spot!

The study states that the most significant benefits are for seniors in high-risk groups, those with home care, or living in nursing homes. For these groups, the vaccine is even cost-saving for society.

A new Swedish study from the Public Health Agency suggests that for healthy, low-risk seniors and young adults in risk groups, the cost-effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination is low. According to the study, the benefit is limited from a socioeconomic perspective.

I think it's *EXTREMELY* important for us not to focus on RFK Jr alone; his anti-vaxx activities & kooky conspiracy theories are getting major support from the MAHA/MAGA crew, like Vinay Prasad, Marty Makary, & of course the Great Barrington Declaration dudes (Jay Bhattacharya, Martin Kulldorff).

A common misconception: children need infections to build strong immune systems. Prof. Jörn Klein explains this is false. It's exposure to harmless microbes in nature – not illnesses like measles or flu – that truly strengthens immunity. #ChildHealth #ImmuneSystem

I don't understand why anyone would think it wasn't airborne, it was clear on day 1.

Reasons for this lie could be...
Money 🤑 💰
You can't go spend money 🤑 if you are scared of the air 🤔
And work in the "mines" to make 💰💰💰 for the guys on top, "let's not spend money on protection use propaganda!"

Apparently telling the actual truth is possible. Well, at least in Australia. Here in Sweden, the media keeps up their dogged attempt to minimise the utter shadiness of and destruction wreaked by our RFK Jr-/Great Barrington Declaration-linked so-called scientists.

Absolutely outstanding article on the link between EBV infection and long-term health problems.

The concept of infection with a pathogen causing not only acute illness but also being a risk factor for chronic illness in the future is not controversial. This is why I avoid SARS-CoV-2.

Significantly improving ventilation dramatically cuts down airborne virus levels. We're talking 8+ air changes per hour leading to a huge drop in particles! This isn't just theory; it's a demonstrated fact. And it doesn't necessarily require expensive overhauls! #PublicHealth
