50% of those in hospital are unvaccinated.
“Vaccination is absolutely critical” - S Marshall.
"So they're 50 / 50. So it what's the point of being vaccinated?" I hear a cry.
Here's the maths. There are currently 101 people in hospital. Let's say 51 of them are vaxxed and 50 of them are not.
There are current 1.7m people in SA.
89% of people are fully vaccinated.
So 1.5 million people are vaxxed.
200k people are not.
So 51 out out 1.5m vaxxed people are in hospital
50 out of 200,000 unvaxxed people are in hospital
That's a 1 in 30,000 chance of being in hospital for vaxxed people
That's a 1 in 4,000 chance for unvaxxed people.
But yeah, why bother getting vaccinated?
PAFC. Forever.
LOOK OUT, WE'RE COMING!
