The CDC Has Invented a New Term to Baffle You With

 

The CDC Has Invented a New Term to Baffle You With

Al Ritter


In a slight of hand trick the CDC has come up with a new term to take your attention from the old term. The new term is called “Breakthrough,” meaning the vaccine didn’t work as well as we first thought.

Breakthrough is when a previously vaccinated person then contracts the virus. This breakthrough is becoming all too common. The word that they are now ignoring is “Efficacy Rate.” I love looking up definitions as you can tell from previous articles so let’s look up this one.

ef•fi•ca•cy ĕf′ĭ-kə-sē

·         n.

Power or capacity to produce a desired effect; effectiveness.

·         n.

The quality of being efficacious or effectual; production of, or the capacity of producing, the effect intended or desired; effectiveness.

 

Wow this a pretty powerful definition isn’t it? After reading the definition my next question is; “So what exactly was the desired effect?” 

I think many of us assumed that the desired effect would be NOT to get the virus. Obviously the declared rate of 90-95% efficacy from the Drug Manufacturers and the CDC, and the FDA means something else. 

With new numbers moving forward in declared “breakthroughs” the efficacy numbers mean very little. 

Initially an efficacy rate of 50% meant that you were 50% less likely to get Covid if you were vaccinated than a person who wasn’t. But you have to remember that efficacy rates were formulated by the drug companies in a controlled environment. And in case you hadn’t noticed we don’t live in a controlled environment. This is where stage 4 trials of a drug come into play they take into account the outside environment, and this is what we are sadly lacking. 

This Breakthrough situation is questioning the very core of efficacy. Was their original “desired effect” merely to reduce the severity of the Covid Infection, or was it to keep us from getting it entirely? 

This is why we as a country are distrustful of our Government, the FDA the CDC. Nobody had explained this to us in the beginning, and so now we are questioning everything they say. 

If a breakthrough of 12 players on a baseball team with a 26 man active roster and all have been vaccinated that doesn’t equate to a 90-95% efficacy rate to me.

Al, all they do is to try to confuse us as much as possible
