wow. they're saying if everyone just got their third vaccine and 80% of people used masks deaths would drop to 0?
Also the "current projection" also has 80% masking and third vaccine usage as though these are just guaranteed.
I do not believe that they have been to a supermarket. Ever.
"It's one banana, Michael. What could it cost, $10?"
If we did a 4th shot and 100% mask usage we could necromancy and undo some of the pandemic.
Do you have another source? Because that’s not a government website, it’s an “independent global health research center at the University of Washington”
Still fucking absurd though
- Impartiality: For health evidence to be useful, it also must be credible, generated by a scientific process unimpeded by political, financial, or other types of interference. IHME was created to fill a gap in global health: to separate the measurement and evaluation of health policies and programs from the process of creating, implementing, and advocating for policies and programs.
Oops!
With initial funding provided by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the state of Washington, IHME began with a core team of three members. Today, more than 600 faculty and staff work at IHME. Our early work quickly gained traction in international journals and media outlets, introducing novel approaches to measuring disease burden and often prompting scientists to rethink established methods. Ranging from tracking effectiveness of vaccination programs to health financing to maternal mortality, our research tackled major topics in global health.
Over the years, IHME expanded its partnerships to include collaboration with multiple government organizations including the White House, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, the World Health Organization, and many others. In 2017, IHME received a new investment of $279 million from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to expand our work over the next decade.
Leaders around the world have used our findings throughout the pandemic and we continue to update our COVID-19 projections regularly, striving to provide the world with the most timely, accurate estimates possible.
:wtyp:
Isn't that the site that the Trump admin use for projection? If I remember it correctly, lol. I'm not sure if Biden still follow Trump and use it or not.
