Israel / covid
"95% of the severe patients are vaccinated".
"85-90% of the hospitalizations are in Fully vaccinated people."
"We are opening more and more COVID wards."
"The effectiveness of the vaccine is waning/fading out"

@Foneguy89 At first glance this worried me and I even reshared. Now that I researched the data a bit deeper I realized the numbers are completely false and misleading. Though I will say ADE is a potential concern and the numbers could tilt that way. But we arent there yet and this post doesnt cite factual data.
@Foneguy89 Doctors can be wrong... or perhaps it just lacked context I cant say.. but the stats he is citing as they appear here (out of context) are simply not true.
As of about a week or so ago we were seeing 57% of new COVID patients in israel as having been vaccinated, a far cry from the 85-90% he is citing. 57% is not unusual given the vaccination levels, 85% - 90% would be.
