From the update today, one of the items on Dr. Deena Hinshaw’s checklist was to mention that the province will no longer continue to use Sotrovimab for treating those with COVID.
For starters…up until today, I didn’t even know what Sotrovimab was or that we were even using it…but we’ve stopped using it for the reason that it isn’t altogether that effective for treating those with COVID and it’s current sub-variant - Omicron - BA.2.
As per the press release:
Beginning today, we will be pausing use of Sotrovimab as a treatment for COVID-19.
This follows uncertainty over whether the Sotrovimab treatment is effective against the BA.2 subvariant.
Currently, BA.2 is the dominant COVID-19 variant in Alberta, making up more than 80 per cent of all new cases, and so we have had to shift our approach in treating it.
Meaning that a drug that you’d never heard about that was being used to treat COVID failed so badly that even Hinshaw stopped using it, but will continue to use Remdesivir.
We have no idea what the studies on Remdesivir actually look like for the province but from what I’ve seen, Remdesivir isn’t really altogether too effective.
I’m going to stop you here.
PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME ANYMORE INFORMATION ON REMDESIVIR.
I’ve seen it and this really isn’t the point I’m getting at. I appreciate the sharing of information but on Remdesivir, believe me…I’ve seen enough.
Moving on…
We’ve stopped using something…because it isn’t that effective, but where are we on the mRNA vaccines?
This is what I am going to be talking about.
Effective Rate.
Previously, on the Alberta Provincial website, we could see a post for the effective rate for the Vaccines on COVID, originally touted as 90% effective, as per the dashboard:
And while both you and I may question this, this was all before the massive spike in cases, hospitalizations and deaths from Omicron and includes only 3 variants, Alpha, Delta and Gamma.
Have you heard of the Gamma Variant before as in a “Variant of Concern”, speech by anybody in Canada?
Me neither.
But for a very short time, gamma was apparently a part of the COVID issue in Alberta. Now, to date, there has been no ‘Effective Rate’ actually calculated on Omicron and if you have a look, you’d have to wonder why we haven’t been able to get this data.
Gamma didn’t really seem to take off in Alberta, nor the rest of Canada…in fact, we were still in the Alpha Stages of COVID at this time but if you look at the Alpha and Delta Waves:
You can see that:
Alpha and Gamma overlapped, using the above 2 charts.
Delta lasted longer than Alpha and currently Omicron.
Vaccine effective rate on Gamma was LOWER than Alpha and Delta…but never even made a dent in the grandest scheme of COVID.
But somehow, the province or country or planet was able to calculate the effective rate of the mRNA vaccines on this strain, while Omicron has been the predominant strain for the last 4 months and they are still being recommended despite the obvious failure.
This kind of makes you wonder how ineffective Sotrovimab actually is, if the Province by way of Dr. Deena Hinshaw stopped using it for Omicron.
All while, we’re still using Remdesivir!
Still not the point.
What’s the point?
It’s like this.
I am probably dying this week, if I haven’t already and am just too stubborn to admit that I’ve finally succumbed to COVID because I have refused the vaccines, exposed myself to an evening of high risk community activity in a public environment filled with other unvaccinated people where none of us put on a mask and in a place where social distancing wasn’t an option.
See →Link, to my Red Deer meet this previous weekend.
We know this is all bullshit and yet we continue on with this charade of complete lunacy and insanity and I have a pretty good understanding of why. Nobody has the time to break through the charts, graphs and statistics, like I do, so a large majority who don’t want confrontation and don’t have time to commit, just do what they are told.
If you fall into this group, you are not a bad person and you are the reason that I continue to do what I do…break down the information into bite sized pieces.
So…let’s get on to business…shall we?
Today’s Provincial Update, isn’t actually from today…this is the first thing you need to know…it’s actually from April 11th, 2022 and if you looked at my previous substack, you can see that there is an absolute increase in risk to those who have been boosted for hospitalizations, despite the message that getting boosted is still in your best interests according to CMOH, Dr. Deena:
From the top right hand corner of this, you will see that these numbers are from April 11th, 2022…not the regular 1 day delay. This is important because of my personal interest of accuracy in the report (getting there).
Over the last 120 days, the province reported 863 COVID related Deaths:
(Here’s where accuracy comes into play)
When I downloaded the most recent data →Link, what it actually shows is that over the last 120 days (going back from April 11th, 2022 to December 12th, 2021), there were actually only 833 Deaths.
2 things worthy of note, in case you actually clicked the above Link and sort this out for your own personal confirmation…there were no deaths after April 9th, 2022 and my start date was December 11th, 2021 to include the reported deaths for the 1 day of lag in reporting.
There was only 1 single death on December 11th, 2021…include or exclude at your leisure…it makes no difference as 1 death in this period makes up .12% or that 7 additional people would have needed to have died to make up 1%. (8/800=1%).
Now…if you data sorted by age from the Data Download, the one thing you can also tell is that 748 of the 833 deaths during this time (90%) - were in those aged from 60+, the highest age stratification - AKA - the Highest Risk age stratification for mortality to COVID.
90% of the TOTAL DEATHS.
If you were to scroll back in time to the Stats available by the Province for December 12, 2021, while we’d started Boosting these ‘High Risk Groups’ in September, 2021 - you’d see that well over 90% of this population, at this time, was “Fully Vaccinated”:
Total Population - 875,718
Total Vaccinated - 817,098
Percentage: 93%.
With at least having 93% of the High Risk Population Fully Vaccinated, over the last 120 days, they make up 90% of the total COVID deaths.
Read that again.
As of the most current data and over the last 120 days…
Total Population: 875,718
Fully Vaccinated: 826,561 →94.4%
Boosted: 660,121 →75.4%
Since December 12, 2021, our vaccinated level has increased on fully vaccinated to 94.4% in that it could have never gone down and we’ve boosted 75.4% of this High Risk Age Stratification and they still make up 90% of the total COVID deaths, during this last 120 days.
94.4% of Fully Vaccinated, 75.4% of boosted for this last 120 days, throughout vaccinations, have made up 90% of the Total COVID Mortality.
Let’s do a YoY comparison and look back 1 year before and compare the same statistics from these exact dates.
December 12, 2020 to April 11, 2021.
During this time, there were 1008 deaths:
And, during this time, there were 926 COVID deaths reported for those over the age of 60 - with one listed as “Unknown”.
926/1008*100 = 92%.
In one year of Vaccinating, double vaccinating, boosting and now onto double boosting, we’ve seen a reduction in deaths for the highest risk age groups reduce by 2%.
Let’s unfold this.
Omicron is the weakest of the variants.
In this time, vaccinations have reduced the mortality in the Highest Risk Age Stratification by 2%. The current deaths over the last 120 days in the 60+ age group were 748. By April 11th, 2021, only 4.3% of the population was vaccinated:
By continuing on with vaccinations and boosters and now a second booster - 4th Jab, over the last 365 days…we have saved 15 lives in this High Risk Age Stratified Group - 748 x .02 = 15.
Or…did it?
From here…because I had to dive into this information, I’m also going to show you what I found that I probably missed in this time.
According to the Archives, there were 130 deaths in people with ‘No Conditions’ - for 120 day period, prior to December 12, 2021.
On this same day, following almost 2 years of COVID…there were only 142 deaths in people with ‘No Conditions’.
Do you actually believe that we cancelled Sotrovimab because it was less effective than mRNA vaccines - where year over year totals show that the vaccines only saved 15 lives?
Do you actually believe that 130 out of the 142 lives lost in people who had no Conditions died in the 120 days prior to this last Christmas Season and only 12 in the 2 year period leading up to this?
No…because, you’re not an idiot.
It’s all Bullshit.
This has all been calculated on the data that is easiest to sort and takes no consideration into the data fraud for the province - referenced →Link.
But the reason that I go through this is…those that say, the Unvaccinated are the problem with the pandemic have never looked at who is actually at risk and what the vaccines have actually done - NOTHING.
And…so that if/when you need to have this conversation, you can back it up with the actual stats.
It I lived in Canada especially Alberta we would be going to war together.
Sheldon, we appreciate your hard work and responsible reporting. It’s clear that government has lied and continues to lie and try to cover their tracks because they’re not accountable. Keep up the great work of bringing the truth to the public. Bravo!
