  • Who is the critically ill patient in Israel?

    When it comes to the COVID-19 vaccine, Israel is often mentioned


     At the beginning of this year, due to rapid vaccination in Israel, it was used as a model for vaccine control of epidemics


    Now Israel is the first country to start large-scale injections, and it has become a key example in the debate on whether or not to increase injections


    Especially in the recent discussion about booster injections, some people said that the two-shot vaccine is now completely useless


    These statements often point to Israel


    Its timetable may be only a few months earlier than the United States, and the United States will see it soon


    In this case, it is worth seeing who is the critically ill patient in Israel


     

    Haaretz is the oldest newspaper in Israel


     

    The title of this report is that 10% of unvaccinated Israelis accounted for 73% of severe cases and 65% of deaths, which contributed to the current COVID-19 crisis (10% of unvaccinated Israelis accounted for 73% of severe cases , 65% of deaths)


    Anyone over the age of 12 can be vaccinated


    On September 28 alone, Israel reported 57 new severe cases


    It can be seen that although the proportion of the unvaccinated population is very low, they account for a very high proportion of severe cases



    If you look at the current total number of severe cases, there are 644 cases, of which 472 (73%) were not vaccinated, 123 received two injections, and 49 received a third injection


    According to the announcement of the Israeli Ministry of Health, of all critically ill patients in Israel, only one is under the age of 20


     

    Patients with the most severe COVID-19 will need to use an instrument called ECMO, usually called an artificial lung, which is used to replace the patient's own organs to perform heart and lung functions


    In Israel, 47 patients were using ECMO, 43 were not vaccinated, only 2 were vaccinated twice, and the third was not vaccinated
    .
    Don't underestimate the number of these dozens of cases
    .

    ECMO is a very complex instrument and requires a lot of manpower support
    .
    There are 47 cases of new coronary pneumonia patients requiring ECMO, which has put tremendous pressure on Israel's entire medical system
    .

    Many of these people who have not received the ECMO vaccine are still relatively young.
    This is completely avoidable
    .

    These people are now called "COVID fools" (COVID fools) by some exhausted local medical staff
    .

    In terms of total numbers, the biggest challenge Israel faces comes from the small population who have not been vaccinated
    .
    This is from the overall perspective of the epidemic
    .
    If you switch to a ratio, you can see the impact of vaccination on your personal risk
    .

     

    In Israel, the COVID-19 death rate for unvaccinated people over 60 years old is 6.
    3 per 100,000 people
    .
    If it is injected twice, it is 1.
    3, and if it is injected three times, it is 0.
    4
    .
    Among people under 60, 0.
    04 per 100,000 people are not vaccinated
    .
    Two shots 0.
    02, three shots 0.
    01
    .

    Now, many people see Israel’s data
    .
    The point is that three stitches are more effective than two stitches, but the third stitch is based on a very short tracking time and a limited amount of data
    .

    Rather than say how effective the third stitch is, it is better to look at the first two stitches that still provide a huge change
    .

     

    We must see that a certain percentage of people in Israel are not vaccinated
    .
    This proportion is a minority in the population, but due to the large number of severely ill patients, this minority may still have a huge impact on the entire epidemic
    .
    The reference significance in this respect is no less than the reference significance of the third gun
    .

     

    What causes such a proportion of Israelis to insist on not being vaccinated? There are many reasons for vaccine hesitation, such as false information on the Internet
    .
    However, anyone can encounter fake news on the Internet, and no country is immune
    .

    Also compare vaccination rates in developed countries is not the lack of vaccines, they are not difficult to find "every day is different"
    .

     

     

    Even in some developed countries, the proportions of all vaccinated populations in Canada and the United Kingdom are 71% and 65% respectively, while those in the United States are only 55%
    .
    Isn't false information divided into American English and British English? One of the factors that must be mentioned is the long-term social equity issue between the state and society
    .

     

    The vaccination rate in a country is unevenly distributed and varies greatly among different populations
    .
    There is a population in Israel that has a very low vaccination rate, that is, its minority Arabs
    .
    The same is true in the United States
    .

    African Americans and Hispanics are the major minorities in the United States, and their vaccination rates are much lower than those of other ethnic groups
    .

    As a result, the vaccination rate in the United States has also stagnated
    .
    Of course, when the universal vaccination rate exceeded 60%, Israel stagnated; when the universal vaccination rate exceeded 50%, the United States ceased operations
    .
    Why does this phenomenon occur?

     

    If you look at the situation in the two countries, you will find that a big problem is the long-term unfair distribution of social resources
    .
    This injustice is comprehensive, including medical resources
    .

    This has caused some ethnic minorities to completely lose trust in the entire medical system in the long-term lack of fair allocation of medical resources
    .
    The vaccination rate will naturally also be negatively affected
    .

     

    If our own interests are not directly affected, it is easy for us to turn a blind eye to social justice issues in many cases, and perhaps we are still complacent when we think it is good for us
    .

    This can be seen as a carefully disguised egoism
    .
    But under the epidemic, we can easily see the consequences of social justice issues
    .

    Even if we are willing to continue to pretend to be blind, we will still taste the consequences of long-term social justice issues
    .
