I stop tolerating your idiocy once it's consequences begin to affect me.
What throws a wrench into all of that planning, and ability to predict and respond to healthcare demand, is a novel pandemic that sends massive amounts of people to the ICU, which the healthcare system was never built to handle.
but of course you already knew that.
what fills up icu beds? obesity? not acutely, that will take years to infect another person.
the vaccines are not great at stopping the spread of delta but they are great at preventing people who get it from going to the hospital.
that's not an accurate take on how the vaccines work against delta.
the vaccine makes it so you are much less likely to get the virus in the first place. it also shortens the time you are infectious to other people if you do get a breakthrough case since your bodies immune system response goes into effect immediately and not after a while. an extremely simplified view is: antibodies neutralize free floating viral particles(antigens). B cells create antibodies. T cells tell B cells to go make antibodies and also kill infected cells with cytotoxins.
when you are vaccinated your T cells and B cells already know what to do if they see viruses so they can mount a defense immediately and it shortens the infectious period. in addition you will still have antibodies left over(i am unsure if you still make more for a period of time after the vaccine without any antigens) from when you got the vaccine so you will have a lower likelihood of getting sick in the first place since the antibodies can neutralize the antigens before they have a chance to infect too many cells and create more antigens.
by the nature of not getting sick in the first place and by not being infectious for as long the spread of delta is slowed
you're fighting a point that has not been made.
In whole world, they all do, and I am not sure it is always the right way things should work. We should have enough beds and staff to care for all people in need. Even those not in preferred societal classes or not with the right political views or even those who did some bad medical decisions.
