Moderna says its new Covid mRNA booster makes twice the Omicron antibodies. Think DAYS of extra protection. Yay! Also, what's with the post-booster death Moderna went out of its way not to mention?
I got COVID in. January. I was one of the lucky ones to get the infusion for Omicron. I get bronchitis/ asthma when I get sick, so I also used my nebulizer. The infusion was hard to obtain, but maybe my age played a part in it. I am 82 years old.
In March, I asked my doctor to test for my antibodies. My number is 49. He had told me anything over 10 would be good. It was 49. I have not had any COVID vacs. Or boosters. And I never will. It is better to get COVID, that those nasty vaccines.
Great piece. @Alex have you seen this publicly available Walgreens data? Here is the link: https://www.walgreens.com/businesssolutions/covid-19-index.jsp (go to the 3rd screen and you can view cases by vaccine status). Essentially this proves that NOBODY should get a vaccine with the possible exception of a person >65 yrs old who took ONE DOSE ONLY. Curious how this is so "out there" yet crickets from the media.
You've got to love the outcome measures they use. Generation of antibodies is not the equivalent of the development of immunity for COVID. Antibodies in the blood are nice to have I guess, and for as long as they last I suppose. But the more important antibody response would be with secretory IgA antibodies that are found on mucosal surfaces where SARS CoV-2 lands! Their endpoints are meaningless. And they could, who knows, temporarily reduce the risk of severe disease and hospitalization (I don't really believe that mind you). But once they're gone completely, then there's zero protection plus all the risk.
"The report spends considerably more time praising the booster’s efficacy against the Omicron variant. Moderna actually designed the booster - technically called m1273.211 - against the now-extinct Beta variant. It contains an equal mixture of mRNA designed against the original coronavirus spike and the Beta variant."
How interesting.
Off-label use of the vaxx is OK, but off-label use of IVM will get a doctor's license revoked.
People are reading the science now more than ever. Sunlight is the best disinfect. It might be late in the game, but it’s making people really pay attention to the other vaccines and scrutinize the information we all should have known long before now. No vaccine is safe, effective or necessary as formulated and manufactured now. Not a single one.
Having said that, what about the "1 physician decision" to discontinue? Why did the doc decide to discontinue. Was this question answered in the report?
And what about the "3 withdrawn consents"? Why? Was this in the report?
I think it would be fair to say most conservatives wouldn't have gotten any shots had they known you could still be infected and spread covid even if you get jabbed.
The ones that will still wear masks on airplanes will be the first in line for any new booster.
Here’s their next reformulation:
"Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and howlet's wing,--
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."

900 person trial! 😂😂😂😂😂
Was the dead person grateful for their shot?
As long as 50% of the country still drives their car, alone, with a mask on…
Moderna will always have a market for their potions.

NYT is a joke.

The "1 death" is obviously troubling..

Inquiring minds want to know...
And Fauci is admitting natural immunity and herd immunity in his new paper

I think it would be fair to say most conservatives wouldn't have gotten any shots had they known you could still be infected and spread covid even if you get jabbed.
So I guess with the fading protection on the variants the booster train will just keep on rolling to the Bank of Fauci & Trudeau.
Well most journalists won't take time to read 53 pages. Glad you're not most journalists
