Maths is very much my strong point, I do it for a living. I’ll correct you once more though because you do seem a little slow on the uptake. 95% efficacy DOES NOT mean “95 in every 100 will be immunised satisfactorily against Covid”. That is just plain wrong. Good article in the New York Times explains why this is a common misunderstanding amongst the less informed members of society! Whether EasyJet is under or overvalued is another matter but given how central the vaccine efficacy is to the prospects of airlines, you really should try to understand the basics before investing in something you don’t really understand and keep misinterpreting. Otherwise you’ll look (and feel) a bit of a fool when it all goes wrong!

Oh Dear Getrichslow,

Oh dear oh dear oh dreary:

Efficacy is a more formal way to say effectiveness, both of which stem from the Latin verb efficere "to work out, accomplish." The effectiveness, or efficacy, of something is how well it works or brings the results you hoped for.

Moderna for instance is expected to be 95% efficient.
95 in every 100 will be immunised satisfactorily against Covid

Whereas, the Flu vaccine 2018/2019 had 45% efficacy and 22,000 deaths occured in the UK.

Now, if you really want to do some maths (If you struggle then I will help)
But the Covid vaccine has 95% efficacy and the plan is to immunise majority of the population at risk (Youngsters develop their own immunity and add to the herd immunisation)
Do the maths and you will see that by Summer we will be at death figures that society consider to be acceptable.

Therefore its extremely reasonable to suggest that flights, holidays, cinemas, gyms etc will all start opening up and the covid vaccine/booster will just become a part of everyday life for the same people who are at risk of flu, but the covid vaccine has a better efficacy.

Therefore, as we are discussing Easyjet and the fact I say the stock will fly and consider you a numpty who knows jack, I believe I am correct and you are incorrect so have put my money where my mouth is and have purchased some stock here.

Whites clearly still doesn’t understand what efficacy means...try reading my previous post carefully Whites! Then spend a few minutes thinking.

[whites123] 06/1/2021 13:12

You guys make me laugh.
At least the ones talking it down without a clue do.

Viruses are part of every day life and its about getting vaccines into the population so risk is mitigated to what we perceive to be an acceptable risk.

The common flu kills avg 8,00- to 10,000 per year UK.
But if it were measured in the way Covid is then the death rate would soar to over 64,000 (Those who die within 18 days of being diagnosed with the flu)

All we need to do as a society is to get the numbers of "Acceptable" deaths to a figure society will accept and its all back to normal...

By the time the 95% efficacy vaccine is in full flow it will actually provide better immunisation to the population that the flu jab does, simply based on the fact that no where near the amount of population has the flu jab as will have the covid jab.

Recovery starting to gather pace.

Easyjet cancelling flights today, so another hit. Will they need to raise more cash?

[1crackupboom] 06/1/2021 09:33

Bingo was just about to post the same. Narrative has changed. Vaccines will turn out to be useless. This summer is a right off. Can easy survive till 2022 summer? Not sure will be back to normal then anyway unless covid dealt with. I used to fly all the time. Not flown since before lockdown. Sad for the pilots but I dont see how easy will be able to keep them unless tax payer giving them 2500 a month for next 15 months.

[gettingrichslow] 05/1/2021 13:23

Whites, you clearly don’t understand the basics around what the numbers mean. The Moderna vaccine is not 95% effective, it has a 95% efficacy rate, which is different. Secondly, 95% efficacy does not mean that 95 in 100 people are ‘immune’. That is a common misunderstanding but you really should read up on it before making statements that show your ignorance. The 95% efficacy means that you reduce your risk to one twentieth of the prevailing risk you would otherwise have faced if you hadn’t been vaccinated. So my maths is not wrong, it’s just that you didn’t understand the basic terminology.

[yump] 05/1/2021 13:04

In theory, when the number of hospitalisations and deaths drops to the level of flu, everything should open up.

The whole idea of the vaccines is not to prevent everyone getting any covid, its to reduce the levels of hospitalisation and deaths. So it doesn't need 90 whatever % efficacy.

That's a mercenary way of looking at it I guess.

Gettingrichslow.

Your maths are flawed. And totally off the scale of legitimacy.
The Moderna vaccine for instance has a 95% effectiveness
.

End of.

95 in every hundred will essentially have immunity, add the herd immunity, add the younger folk who are not affected (Herd Immunity) and very very soon the virus will be wiped out.

[gettingrichslow] 05/1/2021 08:18

Justice, the vaccine reduces your risk by around 60% after one dose, maybe 90% after two doses, so a 10-fold reduction in risk. But cases are now over 50 times higher than they were in the summer! So even with the vaccine, one is still at 5 times higher risk than in the summer...

[justiceforthemany] 04/1/2021 23:15

PM claims all over 70's will have received the vaccine by mid-Feb. So again no change in expected schedule. This will have a massive impact as 88% of all Covid deaths are in the over 65's.

The prime minister said the "realistic expectation" of the NHS was that the top four priority groups could receive one dose by mid-February.

That's everyone over the age of 70, care home residents and staff, health and social care workers, and the clinically extremely vulnerable.

[whites123] 04/1/2021 16:43

Well today has presented a great buying opportunity.
With TUI suggesting summer will be essentially same as summers past, I think the drop off coincided with Boris mentioning tougher sanctions to come.. (This is essentially what the population has been crying out for since last year)
But do it properly... Lock us all down for 2 weeks. Shoot (Well fine heavily) those that break the lockdown and get a grip on the virus.
With regards to flights though this is where a bit of savvy comes into play..

So we couldnt fly under tier 4.. Got that.
Tougher sanctions to come, Got that.
So holders sell because "Tougher sanctions to come"...

What can possibly be tougher than you cant fly? You cant fly twice? You cant think about flying?, and hence a perfect buying opportunity to take advantage of.

[activeservo] 04/1/2021 15:14

Trouble is, everyone knows we were going to have lockdowns this year regardless of vaccine so is the market going to reflect this tomorrow morning...?

[yump] 03/1/2021 12:25

Anyone like to guess why Amazon has stuff in stock that you can't get for the same price as quickly elsewhere ?

[whites123] 03/1/2021 11:52

People actually buy this man made global warming rubbish..

How long has the earth been in existence?
How many times has the earth been populated by beings, and then faced extinction?

If it were not for global warming then the northern hemisphere would be under an ice cap.

A volcano eruption deposits more contaminants into the atmosphere than all of mankinds contribution over a decade.

DO NOT confuse global warming with destruction of our seas etc by waste... They are not the same... I whole heartedly agree with a need for proper waste management.

But the global warming con... LOL.

[whites123] 03/1/2021 11:46

How many items did you need to send back gettingrichslow?

Majority, and I do mean over 50% of the friends and family I have coerced with this holiday season have said they bought from internet this season and of them over 50% have a need to send it back.
I do to. I bought amazon, next, body shop, and plenty more.
Of the bits i received I guess i was upset, disappointed with at least a 1/3rd of them.

So in hindsight.
Unless its a repeat purchase of a known item then i suspect the internet bubble is going to burst as serial let downs and disappointment will only be tolerated for so long.

Found this online, hopefully it'll apertain to easyJet alsohttps://www.majorcadailybulletin.com/news/international/2021/01/02/77007/tui-germany-expecting-relatively-normal-summer.html

Netcurtains, absolute garbage that internet shopping has reached a high water mark! Have a guess at what percentage of retail sales in the US are online? The answer is just 22%. So the likes of Amazon have got a further 78% to go at...in other words, they’ve only just got going and there’s a LOT more to go for. PS: over Xmas I bought a new laser printer, 2 tonnes of plum slate chippings for the garden, and some expensive black rum - have a guess which retailer was (a) the lowest price on all 3, and (b) the only retailer to have all 3 in stock? Answer: Amazon.

[netcurtains] 29/12/2020 19:31

The more people who retire or work from home the more free time people have.
This means more people will have a lot of time to go shopping and a lot of pensioners have a lot of money.

Pensioners prefer to go to town (as part of their retirement).
THUS:

Internet shopping has reached a high water mark and
And high street a low water mark.

Growth will come from the high street and collapse will come from over stretched internet stocks,
