Biden just announced the U.S. has reached 200 million shots administered. It's obvious that the government/media are pulling out all the stops for this vaccine marketing campaign, but I still can't get over how illogical this particular statistic is and how it should be to everyone.
Looking at this link by the Department of Health (https://health.ri.gov/publications/guidelines/COVID19-vaccine-timeline.pdf), we can see that government employees, healthcare workers, school staff, and 65-75+ have been eligible for the vaccine. All other age groups, from 16-64 are still in the process of eligibility being rolled out, also dependent on underlying health conditions.
Looking at U.S. population data (as of 2019), about 60 million people are below the age of 15, with the total population being 328 million. Removing kids from the equation, are we expected to believe that pretty much everyone who is eligible for the vaccine has taken at least one dose? Maybe I'm highly underestimating the demand or not keeping up with accelerated vaccine eligibility, but I live in one of the most liberal states and I'd say it's still split maybe 60/40 on those willing to take it.
It's even more clear to me through stats like this that bad actors are really running out of time. With the UC system announcing they are requiring vaccines this fall, after JUST claiming they were undecided on requiring it a week ago, the pressure is definitely on. Is this what a 10 year plan being condensed into a couple of years looks like?
No, your math and reasoning are just wrong. If you want to downvote me, fine, but try and rebut me with a logical discussion.
Your biggest logical flaw is: Right now, MOST 18-65 year olds are eligible for the vaccine and have been for over three weeks. My friend group of 25-26 year olds is 40% vaccinated. It's one thing to be vaccine skeptical, it's another to be ignorant. How can we win if we all fall for basic illogical reasoning with no research...?
So let's do that math again with this information:
330M Americans with 60M kids equals 270M adults. Most vaccines require two doses, so 200M administered shots mean at LEAST ~85M to ~140M people are partially or fully vaccinated. Around 35-50% of the adult population, (it's probably closer to 45-50%) This shouldn't be surprising.
After seeing some posts about not counting by person, but per shot, I can agree that this might make the statistic seem more reasonable. Still disingenuous that there is no clarification of this anywhere in Biden's speech nor in articles about the vax numbers, as they just love showing big numbers to trick people into taking it.
For example, a Politico headline reads, "Biden: 200 million Americans have been vaccinated."
They really are lucky that the vaccines currently on the market are double dose.
Thank you, I was about to post that most people getting these "vaccines" are getting two-fers. And that's why they're using that statistic - they can double the number and make it seem like more people have been vaccined than is the case (which is to introduce a bit of societal-level peer pressure to get more people to fall in line.)
I’m looking forward to “400 million Americans have been vaccinated.” Most people I talk to aren’t taking it. Yesterday, when someone asked me if I minded if they take their mask off I told him, “no I don’t even carry one around with me.” He said, “I’m fully vaccinated, are you?” I said, “what?” He said, “vaccinated.” I said, “for what?” and he said, “nevermind.” Lol
I almost feel bad for all the people sleepwalking through this. But they were asleep while the country was stolen, so it's fitting they should bring the same outcome upon themselves.
If they are vaccinated, I would prefer they keep that mask on
