Over 900 positive cases today Thursday, in Cyprus… a number that has been steadily climbing.

And all this happening while nearly 300,000 have already been “inoculated” with at least one shot!

The social behavior of the average Cypriot hasn’t changed… it’s the same as it was 2 months ago and 3 months before that. The number of violations and fines handed out are pretty much the same.

So how come the number of infected has skyrocketed? :?

Well there’s only one factor that changed in the last 3-4 months… the number of inoculated has skyrocketed.

As someone who has been a number-cruncher all his adult life I have reached the only conclusion that my logic will permit... the inoculated are infecting!

How 18 fully vaccinated residents caught COVID-19 in a KY nursing home. One died.
BY ALEX ACQUISTO
APRIL 22, 2021 10:28 AM, UPDATED 6 MINUTES AGO

In this nursing home at that time, more than 90% of the 83 residents had received two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, compared with only 53% of the 116 health care personnel, the study found. And of the 26 residents who tested positive, 18 were fully vaccinated. Only four of the 20 vaccinated staff tested positive. Six residents were hospitalized, including two who were vaccinated.

Still, though they tested positive, vaccinated people “were significantly less likely to experience symptoms or require hospitalization,” authors of the study wrote. Unvaccinated residents and staff were at least three times more likely to become infected. People with two doses of the vaccine, even when they did test positive, were 87% less likely to show symptoms, compared to those without a vaccine, which “demonstrates a strong protective effect of vaccination,” they said. :arrow: :arrow: :arrow:

I dont think so.

The UK is well ahead on their vaccination program and they have also been in a long drawn out lock down for months. They are only now starting to relax their measures.

Their numbers of daily infections has come down A LOT.

I am of the opinion that in Cyprus, there are a lot of xerodjefalous.

Not paying attention to social distancing, proper mask wearing measures and generally bending and breaking the restrictions on movement.

At least, that is what I have noticed.

Either way, expect another lock down with stricter measures. It is coming. :cry:

You just said... "they've been in a long drawn out lock down for months" ...while we've been out of a lock-down for quite a while now.

As for Cypriots being Xerotzefali... nowhere near the parties youngsters are throwing in Britain.

Statistically, when you have inoculated half your population then it MUST have some influence on the number of infected thereafter.

Common sense tells us that the number of infected MUST decrease as the rate of inoculated increase.

But the reverse is happening in Cyprus… which leads to one of two conclusions:

1. The injections are useless rubbish.

OR

2. The injections are infecting the recipients and turning them into transmitters.

That is right, which suggests that lock downs do work in bringing down infections.

Furthermore, I have double checked your numbers.

There has been 220k doses of the covid vaccines administered in Cyprus so far. Which I assume also includes those doses that went to the occupied area.

So these numbers are going to be less in the Republic of Cyprus.

Knowing that each person needs two doses for the vaccine to be effective to its fullest.

That is only about 110k people that could possibly have the full affect of the medicine.

Which is about 10% of the population, that have been vaccinated in the republic of Cyprus. Excluding the occupied area.

At this rate, every 11 to 12 weeks, another 10% of the population will be vaccinated,

Or it will take another 2.25 years until everyone receives 2 doses.

The daily infection rate is going up, because not enough people have been fully vaccinated and there are a lot of xerodjefaous roaming with undue care and attention due to fairly relaxed measures.

I can't speak of the situation in the UK because Im not well informed enough what is happening over there.

I just presume that their measures are a lot more stringent than in Cyprus or are enforced by law enforcement. As to the penalties, well they need to hurt.

Our youngsters here in Australia would be similar to those in England. And sure, there would be an element who flout the laws. But law enforcement does come down on them. Knock on doors and they do handout fines. In our case, the fine is 5000 AUD. Or just over 3000 euros. Not a small fine at all.

So people do learn very quickly. It takes the wind out of the sails of any xerogefalous.

This is the approach Cyprus needs. Otherwise, you will remain a COVID cesspit and people will get sick and some will die.

Or there are too many xerogefalous.

Another 2 prime examples are Israel and the USA. Israel has very low COVID infection rates now, and the US has reduced their's by 80%. Both these countries are well progressed with their inoculations.

So I am thinking, even with the vaccine, if you are still a xerogefalo, you can still get COVID.

Just like with the flu jab, you can still get the flu.

There was a Kybrea xerogefali in Melbourne who was stopped at a melbourne check point last year. She immediately started giving police grief about not recognising their authority, and also calling COVID fake. They were wanting to tell her to turn back and go home.

Then the police got angry and told her to step out of the car, They wanted to arrest her. She said no. One of the police officers was getting very angry and was preparing to smash the window, but a higher ranking officer told him not to. They waved her through so as to not cause a public scene.

The next day, she was intercepted by SWAT police. They weren't mucking around. Told her to get out of the car once and that was it. Then they smashed her window, jumped in to unbuckle her seatbelt and pulled her by her head and hair out a small car window. Put her to the ground, cuffed her and took her away.

That was all over YouTube.
