Are government officials lying about the “pandemic of the unvaccinated”?

US government officials from Biden on down have pushed people to get injected with Pfizer and Moderna shots with the slogan that there is a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” occurring.

But the CDC’s own published data appear to call the slogan into question.

A new CDC study appears to have inadvertently found that 28 times more fully vaccinated patients (5,213) were hospitalized with COVID from June to September 2021 than the unvaccinated with prior infection (189) in nine U.S. states.

Out of 201,269 people hospitalized with “COVID-19-like illness” from January to September (2021) in 9 states, just 1,020 (0.5%) of the hospitalizations occurred in unvaccinated people previously infected with COVID. This is a remarkably small number considering the CDC has estimated 120.2 million Americans (36.8% of the US population) had already been infected with COVID by late May.

Out of these 1,020 unvaccinated COVID patients landing in the hospital from January to September, 89 (8.7%) had tested positive for COVID a second time. The CDC interpreted this to mean natural immunity was less protective against re-infection with symptomatic COVID than vaccination because the percentage of infected fully vaccinated people in the hospital was 5.1%, or 1.7 times less.

But the rather hidden internals of the paper reveal a remarkable statistic: there were 27.6 times more (5,213 vs. 189) fully vaccinated than unvaccinated patients with COVID who needed to be hospitalized from June to September. Considering the prevalence of infection in the U.S. (probably 40-45% of the U.S. population had been infected by June to September if prevalence was 37% by late May), there is little likelihood there were 28 times more people vaccinated than already infected. This would appear to contradict the very vaccination-reduces-hospitalization conclusion the CDC had intended to emphasize in the first place.

These unheralded data seem consistent with data from the United Kingdom, where 90% of new infections and 89% of deaths over 70 are in the fully vaccinated

And increasingly, the data show that natural immunity from a prior infection is better than vaccines.

A collection of 96 studies (as of 1 November) and counting compiled by an epidemiologist and 5 other MDs affirm a prior COVID infection (i.e., natural immunity) offers more and longer-lasting protection than vaccines do.

For example, according to a compendium of 54 studies involving over 12 million people, those who have already been infected with COVID are re-infected at a rate of only 0.2% (1 in 500) in the next 8 months after infection.
