Actual interaction I witnessed at a pharmacy today:

Unmasked Man: “hi I’m here to get the vaccine, it’s my first dose”
Pharm Tech: “okay, unvaccinated people need to wear a mask though, I can offer you this surgical mask for use in the store”
Unmasked Man: “I’m vaccinated”

My mans got so used to lying about his vaccination status that he forgot to stop lying when he was getting the vaccine, he lied so many times that it’s a kneejerk response now

No no no

You misunderstand

He actually was vaccinated

He was trying to snag a third dose

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:

I'm not a physician, but I work in public health metrics for a major US insurer.

My understanding of it, which may be entirely wrong but what we model for, is that once a significant enough proportion of the population is vaccinated, the disease's ability to propagate itself falls below replacement level and it dies out due to a lack of ready hosts.

I can't tell you what percentage that is for covid or anything else. I can tell you that it's happened already for measles in my lifetime. Why we suddenly can't kill off a highly communicable disease when we've already killed one off in my lifetime is left to the reader to figure out.

if r0=8, then that means you need 7/8 of the population vaccinated in order to bring r0=<1

So you need 88% of the population vaccinated.

LOL

The vast majority of the Philippine vaccine supply is Sinovac, though by now we have all of the brands. My friends and family have received an assortment, to the point where I personally know different individuals who have received Sinovac (myself), Pfizer, AZ, J&J, and Moderna.

I don't think it's a "we want to encourage people to take AZ" thing, because most of our vaccine hesitancy comes from all the media propaganda portraying Sinovac as being effectively sugar-water, and vaxx sites lacking any takers if people know it's Sinovac that's being given out, and conversely any "Western" vaccine gets swarmed... including J&J being preferred over Sinovac!

from what I’ve been told each province in the Philippines was told that they’re on their own so each province bought vaccines independently and has a different menu of vaccines

Moderna works and doesn't show the same degradation of function over time that Pfizer does, correct?

SO FAR. Pfizer has been around longer. We might see a droop in Moderna efficacy once it’s been around as long.

But for now we’re hoping it has staying power.

He have theories that it’s because it has 3x the volume or because the doses are spaced 4 weeks instead of 3 weeks, but who knows for now

Horrifying work story about proning:


We have 5 patients on proning rotations on the floor today. Our proning schedule is 16 hours proned, 8 hours supined/side-lying. I was helping the team when one shared a story about a patient who was proned and was lying on his dick. It went ischemic (lost blood flow) and he had 2/3 of his dick and his nuts amputated. Helluva thing to wake up to after being sedated for days/weeks.

EVERYONE WHO IS WONDERING WHY THEY PICKED 8 MONTHS FOR YOUR BOOSTER

Pfizer did that recent 6 month study of efficacy:
https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.28.21261159v1.full.pdf

quote:

Efficacy peaked at 96.2% during the interval from 7 days to <2 months post-dose 2, and declined gradually to 83.7% from 4 months post-dose 2 to the data cut-off, an average decline of ~6%
every 2 months

They're probably extrapolating the 8 months based on how much effiacy declined after 6 months, since the study says 6% effiacy drop every month after the 4 month mark after the second dose, that would suggest a 24% efficacy drop in the 8th month after the second dose

And observing that antibodies dropped off to rely on memory cells, which is not ideal against the front-loaded delta variant

EDIT: Pfizer did another efficacy study against Alpha and Delta that saw falling efficacy after 8 months
