COVID-19: twijfels aan toename besmettingen door Deltavariant?
Iedereen die twijfels heeft aan de huidige toename van het aantal COVID-19 besmette personen door de Deltavariant zou onderstaand Engelstalig draadje van de Amerikaanse epidemioloog Eric Feigl-Ding door moeten lezen.
Anyone who doubts the #DeltaVariant wave is coming only needs to look at Israel🇮🇱 and UK🇬🇧—two of the most heavily vaccinated countries in the world. Hospitalizations are increasing ⬆️ in both countries too. US🇺🇸 is ~1 month behind UK—but US vaccinations are slowly. #COVID19 🧵 pic.twitter.com/9LXAONCzzK

5) Is Israel 🇮🇱 seeing hospitalizations suddenly for #COVID19? Ummm, yes. 6 sudden new hospital admissions overnight. “Not seen in a long time” says reporter @JeffSmithi24. https://t.co/xl2YTTEJGp

7) Scotland is now having a new **all time record high surge** in cases. Higher than even the winter surge. That’s #DeltaVariant. And it can spark large outbreaks in public gatherings. https://t.co/6T8fsrbDDt

9) UK schools don’t mandate masks anymore. That was one of the worst decisions ever. https://t.co/ZJIelGwOfC

11) Dangerous—“it really worries me the lack of context… publishing the daily testing cases just drives fear” ~ Conservative MP Miriam Cates who says #COVID19 data should not be published.
I don’t know who this dumb MP is, but she sounds very Trump-like.pic.twitter.com/Tph8UwcYgM

13) Singapore Delta outbreak proves it—vaccinated still transmitted. In this #DeltaVariant cluster alone, among 29 vaccinated who were infected, 21 transmissions events were between vaccinated-to-vaccinated or vaccinated-to-unvaccinated. That is a lot! https://t.co/jmjvUc6MP0 pic.twitter.com/mwm3uIwSN9
