Yes, Having a positive results from an antibody test ( without a quantified result) does not mean one will have sufficient immune response to the virus to be asymptomatic ( example my fully vaccinated self getting moderate covid19 two weeks after a positive antibody result ) There are...

Actually the groups they said might benefit ( vs the heart risk of vaccine in young adults ) from the booster now just happen to be the groups that were vaccinated first after EUA (Elderly, first responders / medical , people with comorbidities). So really they just pushed the decision on...

Not sure if the following counts as death by vaccine, but I think it does ( if causation is determined) . In Japan three people died when injected with Moderna vaccine made defectively in Spain ( Metal from cap contaminated solution) . Of course the cause has nothing to do with the vaccine...

Moderna dosage is 100mcg per regular shot ( not booster). 50mcg for booster shot. Pfizer is 30mcg per shot. So the Moderna vaccine delivers more in each shot by weight ( not sure the respective weight of the lipid “package”) Studies have shown a drop in effectiveness in the Pfizer...

Me: Pfizer Phase 3 Trial Wife: Moderna Phase 3 trial

Perhaps the man was asking over and over for the key to the restroom, and they kept responding he had to maskup first🤡

My father was an expert witness when he was not retired ( well he is technically still a professor emeritus, 5 degrees with a phd in Industrial Engineering and Operations research/ Human Factors. On presidential review boards, etc.). Walt Disney Company had brought him in on some cases involving...

Polio only moved from the gut into the CNS ( Central Nervous System) in 1 out of 200 cases. Once in CNS then the numbers you gave apply to that subset of cases. So poliomyelitis (Polio) mortality rate for those infected is/was for adults 0.15% not 30%. Polio was nevertheless something...

How often have we seen the brand name of their covid vaccine used vs news and people calling it “the Pfizer vaccine”. i know that I have heard it called the Pfizer vaccine alot. Perhaps different outside the USA.

It was given that name ( By Pfizer/BioNtech ) last fall. I even linked the name announcement back then. Pfizer vaccine is just easier to say and spell. I do not think Pfizer will get much traction in getting people to use the brand name, they haven’t so far.

The servers told me Canadians generally did not tip. Personally I do not know what is customary in Canada. If tippingbis normal up there then not sure why he felt the way he did ( Many years ago). Perhaps he conflated the two countries. Now Australia I know from personal experience was tipping...

California Grill in WDW payed something like $4/hr when open ( off hours was $15/hr). Servers are assumed to be getting tips. Servers I talked to said they dreaded Canadian customers because many assumed that tipping was not really needed, just like in Canada. On the other hand I was in Sydney...

Pfizer is working on an oral treatment. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.28.21261232v1

Always glad to be of help. Here is the paper itself. The original link that you could not get to was just a summary without a link to the actual study. https://bmcinfectdis.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12879-021-06348-5

8 months for me would have been last May. One month before I got delta. Lol. But hey that is the risk of being in the trial. They need the data and analysis from it ( and the more focused booster trials) to help determine when and whether boosters are needed.

This might provide some help on why the original study was flawed: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02081-w studies showing it ineffective can also have flaws ( the following used a dosage below what was considered effective, and was underpowered)...

Four or five days old.. but still interesting results I have not seen in major news: Astrazeneca has a long acting covid-19 antibody treatment ( perhaps good for for those who are anti vaccine). Phase 3 study...

People are definitely staying away. I feel I am pretty well protected ( Fully vaccinated and much later got moderate covid/delta) So I decided to go to an Imax. I did not wear a mask( had one)…Because I was the only one there.

Dark humor always kept me relaxed under pressure. I was in Camp Victory/North Liberty ( helping night /recon as a civilian) during Iraqi Freedom. I had a number of moments that Dark Humor sprung into my mind.(Some think it is just trivializing danger, but I understood the danger, dark humor...

One memory I have of movie theaters is leaving a movie theater in Austin, Tx and arriving home to realize I had dropped a roll of $300 in theater. I called, they looked ( I wondered if they would keep it if found), they found it, and when I arrived to pick it up, they would not accept a reward...
