Thanks, Joshua. Unreal that this is happening needlessly
It’s hard for me to interpret the data, as I am not an epidemiologist. But, one thing appears certain: Waning immunity from vaccines over time. There is of course a risk-benefit analysis that must be done prior to approval of a booster. I do see some risks (nothing is risk-free), but I see much less risk from a booster than benefit.
I fear that with waning immunity we’re going to see mini surges among vaccinated folks this winter in the U.S. I think boosters should be given to all over the age of 50, and perhaps even an age cutoff of 40. The Delta wave has killed a lot of people between 40 and 65.
This blog link in this tweet is well worth the read. In Liberal MA, you’d think we would have addressed the great divide long ago
Tracy Novick has been an exceptional voice for all students…..not just the few
One third of Americans get their news exclusively from Facebook which is loaded with misinformation on the vaccines.
There was a segment on Facebook on CBS Sunday Morning which noted the misinformation it provides in general including regarding Covid-19 vaccines. Hard to believe it was created in 2004 which seems like ages ago now.
Shhh … Don’t tell Mark Zuckerberg.
He should share the blame in all this vaccine hesitancy AFAIC.
Rationing of care expands to other Northern states, like Alaska. https://www.wsj.com/articles/overwhelmed-by-covid-19-patients-alaskas-doctors-make-life-and-death-decisions-11633253401

Agree therefore with this quote from an Israeli health official. https://twitter.com/EricTopol/status/1444675844287303689/photo/1

Take notice of where hot spots are now emerging. I expect the Midwest and parts of the Northeast to get redder later this month. Overall, it’s just not a good map.
