Moderna #3 in the house.
Another good reason to be jabbed, specially for us old white farts.

“a recent report from the Centres for Disease Control (cdc) in America has produced a novel, and even mysterious, reason to be glad for a covid-19 vaccination. The cdc data show that people vaccinated with the Pfizer or Moderna covid-19 jabs are one-third as likely to die of other causes too. “

Billy boy has some explaining to do.
I wonder if that is related to the fact that many places suppress their covid counts. So deaths get counted as not-covid related.
Sure. Does it prove something to you? To me it shows progress.Quote:

I doubt the vaccine is protective--vaccination status is a marker for other things.
I doubt the difference between Moderna and Pfizer is statistically significant. Doesn't look like it https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7043e2.htm

I tend to agree, the big thing is did you get vaxed or not???Quote:

Yeah, I had the same with my Pfizer booster. Did not have that issue with first two shots. Assume it's just a lymph node reaction.Quote:

Thanks, I tried through that, it was glitchy AF and kept giving me error messages until all appointments were gone.Quote:

Thanks! Yeah, I started playing around and found one in Lafayette a week later. But that sign up system was glitchy AF, you'd think that they would know how this works by now. I signed her up but the system wouldn't let me sign her up as a 10 year old, even though I got to pick the 5-11 vaccine. So I had to lie to the system and say she was 12, wtf? And the system wouldn't seem to let me just sign her up, I had to sign myself up too? Or at least that is what it looked like to me, it's not like they had a lick of instructions on there.Quote:

I imagine that there will be lots of places to sign up at, as soon as CDC signs off on it.
This USA Today article shows the pros and cons of the 5-11 vaccine https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...ow/8554544002/
I’m still on the fence. But holy shit is it contiguous. My extended family and mine are going through it. Started with 3 of 15 positive. Now 11 of 15 positive. My 7 year old has a stuffy nose wanting on her result. But the little kids And the the teenagers are clearing it fast, the adults are getting whacked. Crazy shit
I signed her up for that that, Thanks! I figured out part of the problem. I still don't know why the first try glitched so hard, but the second gave me trouble because I put my name in there. It didn't say "patient name" like things usually do when that's what they're asking for and used the "add dependent" feature. The 3rd time around, I used just her name and it seemed to work.Quote:

Also omitted that 30% of the >8300 kids (~2,500 kids) that were hospitalized had no underlying condition.
Also, I haven’t seen data related to re-infection for this age group. Is that not available? I thought that the UK had data. And I haven’t noticed details about the quality of data for kids. I thought that a lot of the data was supposedly pretty poor quality.
Cool!Quote:

Got boosted at Costco. I was shopping and stopped by the pharmacy to ask about eligibility, etc. She encouraged me to get a booster and gave me a choice of flavors. I was open about my lack of eligibility, vocally and in writing, and she couldn’t have cared less.
And then I found one in Lakewood for the 6th, so signed up for that instead. I'm willing to drive a little to get in a week sooner, especially because we're traveling on the 20th, so having two weeks of vaccine in her instead of one is more betterer.
I should know this but don't: is the pfizer for 5-11 kids still a two dose regimen (separated by 3 weeks)?
