COVID-19: KY Cases Falling Deaths are
Up. We Need To All be Vaccinated Similar to Portugal
Dr Kevin Kavanagh from Health Watch USAsm discusses the Delta
Surge in Kentucky which was worse than the winter surge, more cases and
40% more 463 On the Vent compared to 253 on the vent over the winter
surge (daily rates, 7 day moving average). Slightly less deaths, which
is why we are getting better at treating respiratory distress from
COVID-19. Some predict COVID-19 may be all but gone in a year, but in
the USA it may take longer with only 56% of our population fully
vaccinated. In Portugal, 84% of individuals in the country (including
children) are vaccinated and they are opening the country. In the USA,
we have far too many unvaccinated, and at the same time we are worrying
about our supply chain. And, there are many individuals, such as myself
who have had to put off needed surgery because of filled hospitals.
A new study out of Oxford found 1 in 3 patients with COVID-19 had
symptoms 3 to 6 months after diagnosis. And 40% of the Long COVID-19
patients initially developed their symptoms after 3 months.
Questions were answered regarding the need for those with previous
infections to get vaccinated because natural sterilizing immunity cannot
be measured. In addition, there are two studies which showed that if you
are vaccinated your chances of developing COVID-19 is reduced. The risks
of ventilators and oxygen usage is explained. They are used when only
necessary and will help some individuals but are not a cure-all and at
high levels can also cause damage. Knowledge of how to best use these
interventions is one of the reasons the COVID-19 death rate has fallen.
Finally, the good results of a new drug, molnupiravir, from MERCK to
fight COVID-19 is also discussed. Jack Pattie Show. Oct. 1, 2021.
