83% of New Brunswick's COVID Deaths in July Were People Considered Fully "Protected".
When 15 out of 18 COVID deaths are in the 'protected' class, combined with other statistics, why does Dr Jennifer Russell still continue to say that being fully up to date with your COVID shots give you the best chance of severe illness, hospitalization and death? Is it true? Let's break down some numbers.
If anyone would like to 'fact-check' the information in this article, all of the reports the data was pulled from can be found on GNB's website here. Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let's get started.
Also, the Province's definition of 'protected' is having had your last shot or 'booster' within the pervious 5 months.
A CBC article this week regarding the most recent weekly COVID report released by New Brunswick's Department of Health, discusses the statistics for the week ending July 30th, but fails to show the disturbing trend that 'protected' outcomes are progressively getting worse. In that same article, Dr. Jennifer Russell, Chief Medical Officer of Health for New Brunswick once again parrots the propaganda line that vaccination protects against severe illness, hospitalization and death.
"All I can say is that those people who are vaccinated have a much higher level of protection from being hospitalized, from having very severe outcomes, and from being admitted to ICU and succumbing to COVID." - Dr. Jennifer Russell
The Data For July 2022 in New Brunswick
Sorry, this is about to get numbery and a little bland, but it's important data for us to have. The following is a look at where the numbers were on July 2nd vs. July 30th, 2022.
Hospitalizations Including ICU (cumulative from December 5, 2021 to current, not daily stats)
July 2, 2022 (total 1,156, cumulative)
Protected: 588 people 50.9% 136.8/100,000
Unprotected: 568 people 49.1% 177.0/100/000
July 30, 2022 (total 1,283, cumulative)
Protected: 676 people 52.7% 160.4/100,000
Unprotected: 607 people 47.3% 184.3/100,000
Variance
Protected: ↑ 88 people 69.3% of new admissions ↑ 23.6/100,000
Unprotected: ↑ 39 people 30.7% of new admissions ↑ 7.3/100,000
Summary: From the first of the month to the end, 88 (69.3%) 'protected' people were in hospital with COVID vs. only 39 (30.7%) unprotected. The percentage of protected vs. unprotected is slightly higher albeit not much but the rate per 100/000, the gold standard for officials, grows as well. The rate/100,000 for protected people grew by 23.6/100,000 while the rate only grew by 7.3/100,000 for unprotected.
ICU Admissions (cumulative from December 5, 2021 to current, not daily stats)
July 2, 2022 (total 212, cumulative)
Protected: 82 people 38.7% 19.1/100,000
Unprotected: 130 people 61.3% 40.5/100,000
July 30, 2022 (total 222, cumulative)
Protected: 87 people 39.2% 20.6/100,000
Unprotected: 135 people 60.8% 41.0/100,000
Variance
Protected: ↑ 5 people 50% ↑ 1.5/100,000
Unprotected: ↑ 5 people 50% ↑ 0.5/100,000
Summary: This trend is disturbing. While the number of unprotected people being admitted to ICU remains stable, the number of protected people continues to rise. The data from December 5, 2021 to July 30, 2022 shows a 40/60 split, but the data for the month of July shows a 50/50 split. That's not great news if you're up to date on your shots.
COVID Deaths (cumulative from December 5, 2021 to current, not daily stats)
July 2, 2022 (total 281, cumulative)
Protected: 154 people 54.8% 35.8/100,000
Unprotected: 127 people 45.2% 39.6/100,000
July 30, 2022 (total 299, cumulative)
Protected: 169 people 56.5% 40.1/100,000
Unprotected: 130 people 43.5% 39.5/100,000
Variance
Protected: ↑ 15 people died 83.3% ↑ 4.3/100,000
Unprotected; ↑ 3 people died 16.7% ↓ 0.1/100/000
Summary: So when Dr. Russell states that unprotected people are dying at a greater rate and the statistics show that 15 out of 18 people who died were considered protected, it causes anyone with even half a thinking brain to wonder how she's coming up with that. Wait, I know! It must be that new math they have to teach in school these days.
Data For April Through July 2022 in New Brunswick
To illustrate the trend of 'protected' people having more severe outcomes, we're going to deep dive into the data from April 2022 through July 2022. This date range was chosen as it is the point when GNB changed their reporting methods and the information can easily be found on their website.
Hospitalizations Including ICU (cumulative from December 5, 2021 to current, not daily stats)
April 2, 2022 (total 692, cumulative)
Protected: 298 people 43.1% 62.9/100,000
Unprotected: 394 people 56.9% 142.2/100/000
July 30, 2022 (total 1,283, cumulative)
Protected: 676 people 52.7% 160.4/100,000
Unprotected: 607 people 47.3% 184.3/100,000
Variance
Protected: ↑ 378 people 64% of new admissions ↑ 97.5/100,000
Unprotected: ↑ 213 people 36% of new admissions ↑ 42.1/100,000
Summary: The rate/100,000 hospitalizations including ICU admissions for the protected increased at more than double the rate for the unprotected between April and July 2022.
ICU Admissions (cumulative from December 5, 2021 to current, not daily stats)
April 2, 2022 (total 143, cumulative)
Protected: 48 people 33.6% 10.1/100,000
Unprotected: 95 people 66.4% 34.3/100,000
July 30, 2022 (total 222, cumulative)
Protected: 87 people 39.2% 20.6/100,000
Unprotected: 135 people 60.8% 41.0/100,000
Variance
Protected: ↑ 39 people 49.4% ↑ 10.5/100,000
Unprotected: ↑ 40 people 50.6% ↑ 6.7/100,000
Summary: Again, the number of ICU admissions between protected vs. unprotected went from a 35/65 to an almost 50/50 split. Bottom line is, while the statistics for unprotected people remains stable, the number of incidents for the protected class continues on an upward trend.
COVID Deaths (cumulative from December 5, 2021 to current, not daily stats)
April 2, 2022 (total 210, cumulative)
Protected: 108 people 51.4% 22.8/100,000
Unprotected: 102 people 48.6% 36.8/100,000
July 30, 2022 (total 299, cumulative)
Protected: 169 people 56.5% 40.1/100,000
Unprotected: 130 people 43.5% 39.5/100,000
Variance
Protected: ↑ 61 people died 68.5% ↑ 17.3/100,000
Unprotected; ↑ 28 people died 31.5% ↑ 2.7/100/000
Summary: Incase there are people reading this that still don't understand, I'll point it out; 61 is more that 28. Even the much lauded rate/100,000 is higher in the protected class. Can we stop saying that the unvaccinated are at a higher risk now? Or maybe we should simply continue to keep our heads buried in the sand and yell 'nothing to see here!'
So what about the statement "All I can say is that those people who are vaccinated have a much higher level of protection from being hospitalized, from having very severe outcomes, and from being admitted to ICU and succumbing to COVID"? Well, based on New Brunswick data one could conclude that is:
False!
Some other quick facts about COVID in New Brunswick since the beginning of the pandemic.
There have been zero deaths from COVID aged 19 and under. There were 2 ICU admissions.
There were 5 deaths in the age group 20-39 years of age during the entire pandemic. The number of sudden, unexplained deaths in this age group far exceeds 5 within just the last few months.
90% of all COVID deaths are people age 60 and up, 81% are age 70 and up.
70% of all COVID cases are in the 'protected' class.
72% of all hospital admissions have been people age 60 and over.
65% of all ICU admissions have been people age 60 and over.
Cases resulting in death;
Protected: 0.4% (40,998 cases, 169 deaths) or a 99.6% chance of survival
Unprotected: 0.6% (22,457 cases, 130 deaths) or a 99.4% chance of survival
Variance: 0.2% greater chance of dying if not vaccinated. Yikes!
'Unexplained' is currently the largest cause of death in New Brunswick.
Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) is a fabricated condition to make excuses for the previous point.
Let's play the /100,000 game.
Hospitalizations resulting in death:
Protected: 25,000/100,000 (hospital = 676, deaths = 169)
Unprotected: 21,417/100,000 (hospital = 607, deaths = 130) ↓ 3,583/100,000
ICU admissions (plus hospitalizations) resulting in death;
Protected: 194,253/100,000 (ICU = 87, deaths = 169) yes you saw that correctly.
Unprotected: 96,296/100,000 (ICU = 135, deaths = 130) ↓ 95,957/100,000
You're playing Russian-Roulette with every shot.
With a 0.2% difference in survival rate between protected and unprotected individuals and the outcomes for protected people continuing to decline along with a 1 in 5,000 doses (yes, that's doses, not people) chance of developing myocarditis, particularly in young people, I have to ask, why? With 2 ICU admissions and zero deaths in children under the age of 19 in New Brunswick, why are parents so hell bent on jabbing their kids and now their babies? Frankly with all the real-world data available, if from this point forward if you chose to inject your child with these barely-tested and no-long-term-data-available jabs you have no one to blame but yourself if something goes wrong. Not Trudeau, Tam, Higgs, Russell or even Pfizer, this one will be on you Mom and Dad.
For those continuing to get boosted themselves, good luck.
