,500,000 people. Even two cases is 1:4,250,000. Call it 10 cases and that's
definitely grounds for closing the WA border innit? So that's 1
50,000.
However blood clots have been reported in 37 people from 17,000,000 vaccinated. That's 1:460,000.
Reckon the WA CHO will "act with an abundance of caution" and call a stop to the AZ vaccine rollout? After, it needs to be seen in perspective. Can't go risking the health of their state from a couple of cases in a state of over 8 million, but potentially fatal clotting issues with a risk an order of magnitude higher?? No wuckka's mate!
I think you need to draw up two sets of numbers here. One for pre-election, and one for post-election.
On a side note, does this mean that the EU will let us have our shipment of AZ now?
