Igor Matovič criticizes the Public Health Office – Denník N

Igor Matovič criticizes the Public Health Office for publishing statistics on the impact of vaccination on the spread of covid-19. “From the bottom of my heart, I don’t like blunt propaganda, which bases its success on the assumption that the audience is stupid. Unfortunately, such propaganda has now been generated by Mikas’s Public Health Office, “the Minister of Finance wrote on Facebook.

“To deliberately inflict on people such distorted statistics, when they know very well that in January or February there was a lot of hospitalizations and a minimum of vaccinations, which drastically affects the result – it is stupid and disrespectful to people and the truth. If Mikas did not want to deceive people, he would calculate the effectiveness of vaccination in such a way that the effect of vaccinating the so-called ‘Weighed’, ie in hospitalizations he would also take into account the proportion of those vaccinated at the time of infection, “Matovič wrote.

“If we want to convince those who have not been vaccinated so far, we cannot think of them as eating hay,” he added.

The office is already behind the statistics apologized: “We understand the reservations that emerge in the ensuing discussion on these statistics. Although we have indicated for what period and in which system these basic data were evaluated, we respect that this form of statistics can be distorting. As it was not our intention to manipulate, we will provide data in the near future for the months when the proportion of the vaccinated population was more significant. “
