Australian government official spreading "misleading" information. https://youtu.be/TFtlK6fuVno?t=18 So 95% vaccinated, only 5% not vaccinated. I'm sure the indoctrinated have an alternative perception. Otherwise known as being deluded. |
Just 3 weeks ago, in a September 6th 2021 interview for TheAge, a Victoria Aus. news site had a story with a headline “Almost all COVID-19 patients in Victorian hospitals are unvaccinated: Foley” a quote from Health Minister Martin Foley who is speaking in your youtube video. “Ninety-two people are in hospital as a result of infections driven by the Delta coronavirus variant but only one of the cases in the state’s hospital system on Sunday was fully vaccinated.” A copied and pasted quote from the story. I find it very difficult to believe that the Covid infection demographics have changed so dramatically in 3 weeks. It seems more likely that he misspoke when mentioning the 78 as a percentage rather than 78 of the 375 in hospital are vaccinated. I don’t have access to the raw numbers, but of the numbers he mentioned in the video (375 in hospital, 81 in icu, 61 on vent), “78% were vaccinated” is the only number mentioned as a percentage, likely in error. It would be just like a right wing youtuber to capitalize on a misstatement like this for clicks. I’ll take the written statements as fact. |
For the second time (that I've noticed) a certain poster here has jumped on and promoted some incorrect data based on the utterings of a misspoken health official in Australia (are the Facebook bots in Australia particularly strong?). For anyone interested in a slightly different version of the truth: https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/covid-19-chief-health-officer-update "Of the COVID-19 cases in hospital yesterday, 76 per cent were unvaccinated, 19 per cent were partially vaccinated and five per cent were fully vaccinated." Please folks, consider your sources. |
