$1 Million - $2 Million needed to prevent hospitalization in the young?

Evidence from Sweden

When Swedish researchers looked at the data on kids, tracking whether they got COVID or not, those that got dosed with the experimental COVID injections at least 4 months prior to Jan/Feb of 2022 got 60% more COVID in Jan/Feb 2022 — compared to kids who never got dosed.

But they say that recent jabs helped, and that even overall, they helped with COVID hospitalizations. They calculated the number that you would need to “vaccinate” — or the NNV — to prevent a COVID hospitalization in kids. It took 8,147 double-doses in order to prevent a single hospitalization.

But rumors are that COVID shots will rise to $110 to $130 per shot this year, and evidence suggests that at least 2 doses would be required per year, and possibly more, in order to maintain effectiveness.

But at two doses and the higher of the two prices, it costs over $2,000,000 to prevent a single hospitalization in kids:

It doesn’t even cost $2,000 to successfully treat it (even $200 may be enough), yet it costs $2,000,000 to prevent it? That sounds like a boondoggle, wrapped in graft, and jeopardizing of health.

With $2,000,000 spent on the right types of prevention, you could prevent much more hospitalizations in kids. Spending it on COVID jabs is a misallocation of resources.
