But there are differences between Pfizer and Moderna From stat news: Interesting “coincidence” . Correlation is not necessarily causation. But interesting.

Both Pfizer and Moderna analysis is for what they call 6 months, so they group the ones vaccinated the longest in the 4-6 months period. Their confidence index is lower the farther out one looks because the number of subjects that were at 4-6 months post second shot at data cutoff is less than...

Pfizer loses 3% effectiveness per month according to their own 6 month Phase 3 trial analysis ( see preliminary study results I linked about a week ago). Moderna reported yesterday ( See link I had in an earlier message today) in their Q2 presentation that their 6 month analysis of their Phase...

If the results from both Pfizer and Moderna Phase 3 6 month trial review holds true in the larger population and with delta then Pfizer vaccinated population will need a booster three times sooner than Moderna vaccinated population. Anecdotal , but my wife being Phase 3 trial Moderna and...

Moderna’s Q2 presentation Looks like Moderna covid vaccine effectiveness is only dropping 1% per month vs Pfizer 3% per month.( Slide 25 ) from Phase 3 trial 6 month results ( note predelta data) https://investors.modernatx.com/static-files/c43de312-8273-4394-9a58-a7fc7d5ed098 But they do...

I think efficacy is lower if we start adding in the decreased efficacy caused by time since second vaccination ( shown against original wild variant as decreasing by 3% per month ). Not sure 88% is based on people that are recently but fully vaccinated and not those who been vaccinated for many...

I think your worries are valid. But my belief is what it is because what you worried about happening to you already happened to me ( Fully vaccinated long ago( Sept.) , yet moderate covid ( Delta) for two weeks in June). So that colors my view. How much one should worry and what are...

Guess I am one of the lucky ones. Both shots and recent moderate covid+[likely delta]. Actually given the situation it is nice to feel extra protected. 😀 Though I would not recommend anyone doing a covid party to get that extra protection ( wait for a booster ). Why gamble on long covid or...

Looks like the profile of a wooden roller coaster. 🤡

Might as well since PCR takes a few days to get results.( At least it did in June)

codestim.org is interesting but their data for percent ever infected has mistakes. Simple mistakes such as miami-dade graph using a fraction number between 0-1 for a graph of percent (0-100 ) (100x too small). Additionally if the percent of pop previously infected is true (72% for miami...

Nor do I. I would expect that they are allowed to admit and visit/attend. ( If an unvaccinated family member can visit, that is more risk than a masked unvaccinated doctor visit )

But are they limiting admission privileges of physicians who are not vaccinated? If not are they allowed to be the attending physician?

Not sure if this has been posted here yet: Describes how the FDA is prioritizing getting Pfizer Full Approval. https://www.statnews.com/2021/07/30/fda-under-pressure-plans-sprint-to-accelerate-review-of-pfizers-covid-19-vaccine-for-full-approval/

See below study. Convalescent plasma ( From people who already had it) is 4-6 fold less effective in neutralization against delta ( and beta ), but if they are also vaccinated the numbers, according to the study, are good for neutralization...

So it is possible ti extrapolate at 6 months Pfizer VE ( efficacy) may be 78% against original variant for symptomatic. ( Though for a confidence index of 95% the VE at four months had a wide range )

From the study: ( note the 83.7 is for the subjects four months+)

The paper on the Phase 3 Pfizer study shows a 3% efficacy loss per month since full vaccination ( it is analysis of phase 3 data through April or so) . Therefore those who were vaccinated in January 2021 will have about 82% efficacy vs original covid but someone vaccinated in June should have...

Lol. Technically they are returning from abroad and entering the country, federal law could apply.🙃

Lol. A dark sense of humor can make things easier to handle. When I was in Iraq 15 years ago ( Civilian) in North Liberty/ Camp Victory I was working away and got very tired. I thought of my oldest niece who told me that If I was ever tired Red Bull works great. I said to myself,”Wish I had a...
