Rymanowski: Tomasz Lis’ entry violates my personal rights
We wrote about the conversation between Bogdan Rymanowski and Szymon Hołownia in “Guest of events” at the end of November. The facilitator then gave the example of Ireland as a country that had vaccinated many inhabitants but still has not mastered the epidemic. He also reported that those who died from COVID-19 had previously been vaccinated.
On December 6, Rymanowski was featured on the cover of Newsweek, among other celebrities who question the existence of the pandemic. Their photos were titled “Sowers of Stupidity”.
The editor-in-chief of Newsweek, Tomasz List, tweeted the following announcement of the issue: Latest Newsweek – why do they undermine the effectiveness of Covid vaccines or promote disinformation about their harmfulness, risking thousands of deaths?
Rymanowski replied with a statement on Facebook. He wrote that Lisa’s post is a slander and violates his personal rights. “The words about” exposing thousands of people to death “are an insult and may result in the loss of the trust necessary in journalistic work, so I intend to take appropriate legal steps in this matter, ‘reads the statement.
Due to the great interest in this topic and considerable controversy both around Rymanowski’s words and the cover of Newsweek, we would like to remind you of our text.
In another post on Facebook, Bogdan Rymanowski cites the data on which he based his words about the dying vaccinated in Ireland. He also mentions our website, accusing us of publishing unverified information. Here is our answer to these allegations: Medonet replies to Rymanowski: it is really worth looking at the death figures
Rymanowski: all the deceased were vaccinated
On Monday (November 29), Szymon Hołownia was present in Bogdan Rymanowski’s “Gość Wydarzeń” program. One of the topics discussed was the epidemic in Europe. The facilitator said at one point that there are countries that – despite very high levels of vaccination – still cannot get back to normal. He gave Ireland as an example.
– Those who died were all vaccinated. This is data from November 19. It is about weekly data – said Rymanowski. Hołownia was clearly surprised by these data.
Rymanowski also said that the vaccinated and unvaccinated transmit the virus to the same extent, while asking the question about the meaningfulness of covid passports.

Information on COVID-19 deaths in Ireland is published weekly. The data is provided by the Health Protection Surveillance Center (HPSC) and the Health Service Executive (HSE). On November 24, the government website reported 43 deaths (of which the HPSC reported 18 deaths), and a week earlier there were also 43 victims. On November 10, 73 people died.
We did not find information on what percentage of the most recent deaths were among those who were vaccinated.

Recently, however, in an interview with The Irish Times, Dr. Colman O’Loughlin, an intensive care specialist, revealed that half of the ICU patients in Irish hospitals are unvaccinated. The other half are people who are fully vaccinated but have weakened immunity or comorbidities.
On the other hand, the HPSC data on deaths in recent months show the picture of the situation. According to a report by the Health Protection Surveillance Center, 1 people died from COVID-20 between April 19 and November 680 in Ireland.
249 (37%) of them were not vaccinated, 431 (63%) had at least one dose of the vaccine, 352 (almost 52%) had two doses (or one in the case of a single dose vaccine).
The age of deaths in the 352 fully vaccinated subjects is 35-100 years, with a median of 81 years. 238 of them (67,6%) had comorbidities.
Vaccinations in Ireland
What about vaccination in Ireland? According to the government, by November 29, 5 million 7 thousand were given in the country with a population of around 415 million. 377 doses of vaccine. The first dose was received by 3 million 621 thousand. 900 people, two doses – 3 million 557 thousand. 52 people.
It follows that about 72 percent received the first dose. of the entire population, 71% are fully vaccinated.
802 thousand were also given. 691 booster doses.
In Ireland, immunization also affects children aged 12 and over. The decision to vaccinate people aged 5-11 will be made soon.
