Study: People who skipped their COVID vaccine are at higher risk of traffic accidents

[Kenny]

Good grief! And they pay people to do these studies.

People who skipped their COVID vaccine are at higher risk of traffic accidents, according to a new study

"The excess risk of car crash posed by unvaccinated drivers “exceeds the safety gains from modern automobile engineering advances and also imposes risks on other road users,” the authors wrote.

Of course, skipping a COVID vaccine does not mean that someone will get into a car crash. Instead, the authors theorize that people who resist public health recommendations might also “neglect basic road safety guidelines.”

Why would they ignore the rules of the road? Distrust of the government, a belief in freedom, misconceptions of daily risks, “faith in natural protection,” “antipathy toward regulation,” poverty, misinformation, a lack of resources, and personal beliefs are potential reasons proposed by the authors.

"The findings are significant enough that primary care doctors should consider counseling unvaccinated patients on traffic safety—and insurance companies might base changes to insurance policies on vaccination data, the authors suggest."

Japanese speaking people eat more raw fish than English speaking people and they live longer

Italian speaking people eat more spaghetti and use more olive oil than English speaking people and they live longer

French speaking people eat more butter, sweets and drink more wine than English speaking people.




I have figure out that speaking English is detrimental to your health by studying these statistics.

Let's assume that most of those avoiding COVID vaccination are younger. Younger drivers also have more driving accidents and traffic violations. So avoidance of vaccine taking is merely associative with their traffic accidents. But their being young is the causation.

It is definitely worthwhile to consider confounding factors. Age could be one. Sex could be one. Where and when people are likely to be driving could be another.

 

[Father Heathen]

It stands to reason that someone being an irresponsible dope regarding a particular subject would likely be an irresponsible dope all around.

If that were true, then why are those dying the most also the ones adverse to being informed and responsible?

 

[Father Heathen]

Lol, they just get dumber. Made up studies to try and prove made up stats.

Nah, the dumb ones are those who dismiss facts, data, evidence, etc. and wallow in willful ignorance, intellectual dishonesty, and scientific illiteracy.

 

[Father Heathen]

How do you know they're made up?

Because they don't gel with the narrative he was spoonfed.

 

[Father Heathen]

I bet another study would show that Republicans are at higher risk of traffic accidents.

Considering most anti-vaxxers are Republican and vice versa, it would.

 

[Wildswanderer]

Considering most anti-vaxxers are Republican and vice versa, it would.

Stats say young men have the most car accidents.
Nothing to do with politics.

 

[Twilight Hue]

As I'm not vaccinated and have not learned to drive, I am definitely more at risk of a car accident.

I am not sure these are related..........

This of of it this way.

Traffic accidents cause Covid.

Take a chill pill... it was a joke.

I see what you mean. Having sex while driving could cause accidents. Wait, what?

 

[We Never Know]

Those things could be researched too.
It all depends upon what inspires someone
as significant. Rock climbers & skydivers
are much fewer in number than non-vaxers.
So I don't expect them to appear in research.

Another new study out. If you don't exercise, not very active, you are 391% more likely to die from covid than someone who exercises.

"They found that the more active patients were before infection, the lower the risk of hospitalization or death within 90 days of their COVID diagnosis. The numbers tell the story: in the study, always inactive patients were 191 percent more likely to be hospitalized and 391 percent more likely to die than those who were always active."

The Link Between Severe COVID and Exercise Is Even Stronger Than We Thought

Staying active is good in many ways.

 

[We Never Know]

Yep. A rule of thumb, especially as one ages... The less you do, the less you will be able to do"

Same.

Someone must've been really bored to think to look into this nonsense.

BS

Such a study makes Science laughable

 

[Revoltingest]

Research js no fun these days for anti-vaxers.
It makes them look so irresponsible.
And don't forget....
Almost twice as many Republicans than Democrats died of Covid, study says

 

[Yerda]

Same.

Ha. People will write about anything if it means another publication on their cv.

From scanning through the paper there is apparently some previous literature on the association between car accidents and personality of the drivers. That sounds worth knowing and this study could add something useful to that area.

I totally agree with you...good grief
These are baby scientists
No disrespect to babies

 

[Quintessence]

I'm just going to leave this here...
