Sorry about your mother-in-law. Fully vaccinated and seemingly safe and one example why these vaccinations are useless. Again, very sorry and my condolences to you and your espouse. Faith over fear.

What an ignorant thing to write Here are several equally ignorant sentences:

I know a person who died in a car crash even though she was wearing a seat belt. Seat belts are useless

I know a person who died of pneumonia even though given antibiotics. Antibiotics are useless.

Unless you've had your head in the sand or your eyes on the wrong information sources, you should be aware that there is incontrovertible proof that the vaccines save lives, and reduce hospitalizations, That is the exact opposite of useless.

Please, if you don't believe in modern medicine and the science behind it, please do not burden the health care system with your disease when you are hoping it can cure you of whatever you have. Just take your ivermectin. And count on your faith over fear to cure you.

Over 1,000 people died from Covid yesterday; for them it was something more than 10 times worse than the common cold.
You mean over 1000 people died with covid not from it I assume?

Thanks for at least being a google user. I see nothing in the snip you quote that says anything about several counties nor anything about a county near 200%. I see a reference to zip codes.

I did your suggested wording and got nothing other than those two identical stories, paywalled. I did find a report from the Florida Dept of Health from Mar 15 that did not show a single county over 100%.
http://ww11.doh.state.fl.us/comm/_pa...ata_latest.pdf

The phenomenon of some Zip codes having too many reported vaccines is not new. You can read a report, not paywalled, from Sep 2021 on how one zip code in Dade county had a vaccine rate of 2700%

Quote:
People age 18 and over in the 33122 area code had more than a 2,700% vaccination rate, according to the data.

Why is that zip code significant?

“That’s the airport,” Gelber said.

Miami International Airport has been a pop-up vaccination site open to anyone — not just county residents.

“I think what has happened is they have included all the vaccine tourists in the numerator but the residents are the only ones in the denominator,” Gelber said. “So the result is that you have these very, very, high vaccination rates because anyone who is seasonal or visiting are included.

Unless you have something more, we can put the topic aside as you have overstated your case.

People who are older and have had a booster have died. It’s interesting that with this older population they have minimized it the most! Sometimes I wonder how they lived so long!

Me, too. Rona was a non event for me.

Well, a better question is does it matter that the numbers are potentially wrong.

I expect it doesn't matter in the over all scheme of things. It is more sad that we can't even come up with an accurate count of residents and "others". But oh well.

I see some just asking if it matters at all because it is OVER, I guess I don't know if it matter, I would ask the families of the 5,000 people that died in FLORIDA last week.

Vaccinations are useless. That's not ignorance, sir, that is fact. You can spin it any way you want, but still the jabs are useless. I'm not anti vax, you can continue to be a pin cushion and roll up your sleeves every time the "Good doctor" tells you; that's your right. Trust no one, government even less.

That’s an intelligent response. Someone’s personal experience makes them an uneducated buffoon, (not bafoon), and an idiot.

We can certainly put it aside, with the clarification, I did not make a case, in fact the opposite, I simply referred to the two articles and I clearly stated that I could not vouch for the accuracy of the articles. I guess you skipped that line.

Sadly, you are wrong. Hospitals are crowded to the point my brother had a stroke and had to get in line behind all the people that refused to get vaccinated.

But, continue to deny facts, and listen to the hate and fear mongers on Fox, OAN, and NewsMax.

Default It's Over

The "pandemic" is over. People die every day from a multitude of things. We don't get (nor do we need) updates on deaths from those issues any more than we need to hear about covid numbers. Learn to live with it because it's not going away.
