If the vaccines work, why aren't they working? https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/news/Pages/20220424_00.aspx April 24, 2022 Sadly, NSW Health is today reporting the deaths of eight people with COVID-19; four women and four men. Two people were aged in their 50s, two people were aged in their 70s, two people were aged in their 80s, and two people were aged in their 90s. Older age is a significant risk factor for serious illness and death for COVID-19, particularly when combined with significant underlying health conditions. Of the six people who died over the age of 65, three people had received three doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, one person had received two doses and two people were unvaccinated. Of the two people who died under the age of 65, one person had received one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and the other person had received two doses. Both had significant underlying health conditions. From Jan 01, 2022, to April 24, 2022, 1,327 vaccinated people died - 338 were unvaccinated. That's a 3.93 to 1 ratio. The vaccination rate is 94.7% for 16 years or older.
