In this Substack, it was discovered that there is no evidence grounding the claim that COVID jabs cut ICU admission rates, because a non-significantly increasing trend was found instead of a downward trend — as would be expected if jabs cut the rates.
But critics and detractors could argue that the range of jab uptakes used in that analysis were lower-than-typical (less than 20% of the population jabbed in the prior 6 months).
Here is a regression with more nations and with more typical jab uptake levels:
This deeper analysis confirms that there is no evidence that COVID jabs cut the rate of ICU admissions as, once again, an upward trend was found in the data instead of the downward trend required by the government claim that jabs cut ICU rates.
NOTE: Due to not having reports of ICU admissions on the day of 5 Jun 2022 for two of the 18 nations, the estimate of the weekly ICU admissions per million in South Korea and the Netherlands were obtained by interpolation using records from both a couple of days prior to, and a couple of days after, 5 Jun 2022.
