Darcy: Barometer for Covid Shouldn’t Be Cases Anymore, it Should Be Hospitalizations

STELTER What was it ░░░░░░░░ and how are you ░░░░░░░░ SOAVE I m feeling ░░░░░░░░ fine I was mildly ░░░░░░░░ with kind of a ░░░░░░░░ cold for about a ░░░░░░░░ day and a half ░░░░░░░░ I am vaccinated so ░░░░░░░░ was unfortunate that I ░░░░░░░░ Covid anyway but it ░░░░░░░░ a very mild illness ░░░░░░░░ was over really in ░░░░░░░░ over 24 hours I ░░░░░░░░ completely fine today I ░░░░░░░░ the vaccine for helping ░░░░░░░░ with that Everybody should ░░░░░░░░ it But you shouldn ░░░░░░░░ be so afraid if ░░░░░░░░ re vaccinated Look at ░░░░░░░░ numbers You don t ░░░░░░░░ have to be STELTER ░░░░░░░░ s all about risk ░░░░░░░░ and what your personal ░░░░░░░░ of risk is Oliver ░░░░░░░░ word breakthrough is part ░░░░░░░░ the problem Breakthrough implies ░░░░░░░░ Breakthrough implies something went ░░░░░░░░ That s not actually ░░░░░░░░ premise of the vaccines ░░░░░░░░ Right the premise is ░░░░░░░░ you don t end ░░░░░░░░ in the hospital And ░░░░░░░░ see that they work ░░░░░░░░ think news coverage almost ░░░░░░░░ to reflect that maybe ░░░░░░░░ like you said are ░░░░░░░░ the best barometer for ░░░░░░░░ we measure the pandemic ░░░░░░░░ It should maybe perhaps ░░░░░░░░ on hospitalizations Because if ░░░░░░░░ re telling people that ░░░░░░░░ is why you get ░░░░░░░░ vaccine then perhaps we ░░░░░░░░ be measuring hospitalizations and ░░░░░░░░ more of an emphasis ░░░░░░░░ the fact that high ░░░░░░░░ areas have low hospitalizations ░░░░░░░░ low vaccinated areas have ░░░░░░░░ hospitalizations versus just a ░░░░░░░░ count which doesn t ░░░░░░░░ capture the picture quite ░░░░░░░░ well in 2021.”
