My guess is they're going to make people wait for the 8 month mark because approval for 5-12's going to come in the next couple months and they don't want news stories of people getting their third lining up with children getting their first. fyi pfizer efficacy is estimated at around 50% at the 6 month mark so I don't know what they gently caress the biden administration is doing here. The only moral thing to do is get the third as soon as possible.

It's only going to be EUA for kids whenever it happens, so they'll be stuck in the same lines as everyone else at pharmacies

The amount of asymptomatic children standing in line to get vaccines that won't even work because they have an active infection

:(

And the two-dose series is still only enough to keep kids out of hospitals - Delta's still going to make them sick as gently caress and they won't be eligible for the third shot until mid to late 2022

It should be a huge deal that he is tested daily and got the primo treatment right away despite having no symptoms while he actively tries to spread it to people without such luxuries but instead he's just gonna be back at it in a few days bragging about how COVID is no big deal

And if I remember right it works the best if given early on. And he's getting it on the ground floor of his infection plus being vaccinated so he probably won't even have a cold.

^^^ Yeah I think this is a key bit too, especially with Delta. You go on the attack before the virus can get established and it's at its weakest.

SKULL.GIF posted:

I think it more or less injects the stuff that your immune system uses to attack the virus directly without waiting for the T-cells to wake up and get all active.

TLDR, it's an upfront shot of the antibodies that your body is racing to discover and manufacture when you detect a specific infection

it buys you time by beating back the infection a bit
