COVID-19 >> New Drug Activity & VACCINE TRACKING!!

[Anonymous]

I'm soooooo fucking glad I got Moderna instead of Pfizer.

I wouldn't be feeling smug just yet..



There's a lot we don't know for certain yet about vaccines and the Delta variant.

We are up to 717 today (no deaths)



Encouraging vaccine-wise is that after more ongoing study, they are still saying "95 per cent of recent new infections are among unvaccinated people"



That's still consistent with original test data

It's likely a little lower than that here based on what Dr Deena Hinshaw tweeted.



There are currently 146 people in hospital in Alberta due to COVID-19..



Of the 110 non-ICU, 77.3% are unvaccinated & 9.1% partially vaccinated..



Of the 36 in ICU, 90.6% are unvaccinated & 5.6% partially vaccinated.

That's good for "partially vaccinated"

The partially vaccinated population is dropping as most people get the second dose.

Alberta and BC have more cases each right now than Quebec and Ontario. Saskatchewan is about the same on a per person basis.

Very true. While  East has increased, the largest  increase is in the West



In fact we were over 700 yesterday. Alta near 600 .... Much larger Ontario is  in the 500s yesterday & today  .. although also on a definite steady rise

And the West ended lockdowns first.

And the West ended lockdowns first.

Exactly ... and it's sure showing in the comparative new cases ... new cases that are really rising rapidly almost everywhere



US continues up rapidly - now at almost 900,000 for last week (155,000 yesterday alone)

Give us a two or three weeks and we will have more daily infections than any other province.

Today, tMinister of Public Services and Procurement announced that Canada has entered into an agreement with Moderna for additional supply of its COVID-19 vaccine for 2022 and 2023, with an option to extend into 2024.



The agreement guarantees access to 40 million doses, with access to up to 65 million more if all options are exercised. The agreement will allow access to new COVID-19 vaccine adaptations based on the evolution of the epidemiological situation in Canada.



[That's good so long as delivery timeline works out to be good. And, in a cpl years it will be made here



Sounds like Canada is going all-in on Moderna for the future  



"vaccine adaptations" .. based on the evolution of the epidemiological situation in Canada ... I do like the ring to that  ac_smile ]

There will be people in Canada who will have three doses of three different vaccines.

https://www.foxnews.com/health/us-to-recommend-covid-vaccine-booster-jab-for-all-americans-reports">Health officials in the U.S. are coalescing behind a COVID-19 booster shot for all Americans  eight months after they've received the second shot, a source familiar with the discussions confirmed to Fox News.



News outlets including the Associated Press and Reuters first reported on the planned booster recommendation. The third dose would only be administered after the Food and Drug Administration formally approves the vaccines, the source said. Current planning is to begin administering the booster shots as soon as mid to late September.



The FDA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention did not immediately respond to an after-hours email from Fox News. The FDA has already expanded the emergency use authorization of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna's COVID-19 vaccines to authorize a booster shot for certain immunocompromised patients.





Pfizer and BioNTech said Monday that a third dose is safe and elicits an antibody response at levels that "significantly exceed" those seen in individuals who receive two doses of the jab.

I wonder if this applies to all vaccines or just the mRNA vaccines.

I have heard no specifics yet. The idea  of booster is new and evolving rapidly now ... is becoming the new phase in controlling covid



I'm sure details of all aspects will emerge quickly now
