Covid-2019 - 2022-12-07

In "Recommended Reading," a shocking report in the British Medical Journal: "...students at North American universities with third-dose COVID-19 vaccine mandates risk disenrolment if unvaccinated... To prevent one COVID-19 hospitalisation over a 6-month period, we estimate that 31,207 to 42,836 young adults aged 18–29 years must receive a third mRNA vaccine. Booster mandates in young adults are expected to cause a net harm: per COVID-19 hospitalisation prevented, we anticipate at least 18.5 serious adverse events from mRNA vaccines, including 1.5–4.6 booster-associated myopericarditis cases in males (typically requiring hospitalisation)." Is there anyone dumb enough to think that's a good trade-off? Yes -- only people who run American universities.
