They have become awfully concerned about young people in the last month or two. If they are so worried about them why weren't they offered it first?
Some suggested that as they were the main spreaders but imagine the uproar if the old and vulnerable were dying while they were doing that.

Get them jabbed




Not concerned, article uses percentages to make it sound bad. Using actual numbers would be 1000 18-34 yr olds in hospital compared to 2000 during last wave.


I heard this on the radio earlier. Worst kind of government sponsored misinformation. Uses a percentage to overlook the actual number which is tiny as proportion of the cohort and then does not discuss time in hospital and outcomes - which means the risk to that cohort is still extremely low.

Tried their social experiment and now realise need vaccinating before they get back to School allegedly?
Best of luck with that one as all on holidays mixing and not enough time to do the 2 doses whatever???

Probably the fact that the older ones are vaccinated means that they aren't being hospitalised so the percentage of young ones will be bigger.

1,000 out of 6,000 , compared to 1,000 out of 40,000 .

Pretty serious imo
Actually 2000 out of 40000 but yeah that's the point surely. Older vulnerable ones vaccinated so shouldn't be in hospitals. I would expect unvaccinated/young should be much higher %age than is the case IF covid is the actual cause of hospitalization. But that's a big IF
