And frankly I wouldn't want to work with them either. Yeah, I wouldn't want to work with them either but I've realised over the last 2 years that some people really just don't keep up with the news at all, have no idea what's going on in general, and have been lied to

People are planning which booster they want? I was just going to shove my hand into a bag of random vaccines and take which ever one I can grab first. Who doesn't love lucky draws! (also other than "not the exact same one as your first two", has there been much published research into which booster is my effective with which first two. Thought it was still a bit to early into testing and what not for anyone to come up with to much of a solid conclusion on that yet?)

The boosters will be in a box with lucky dip written on it and you choose by sticking your hand in and whichever booster syringe is stuck in your hand when you pull it out is yours

I'm double Pfizer'd and with absolutely no scientific rationale would quite happily get all the others jabbed into me one after another. Hell, mix 'em together in a bucket beforehand and just push them in at once.

You should be able to get Astra if you've already got Pfizer, from what I've read it makes the efficacy go up by a factor of 10

If boosters aren't coming soon I'm going to do by best to just get vaccinated again - I'm not fussed with which honestly, Moderna would be cool though.

bowmore posted:You should be able to get Astra if you've already got Pfizer, from what I've read it makes the efficacy go up by a factor of 10 Yeah. Again with the massive proviso of I'm not a medical professional, and we've seen in the past 18 months how we should leave most of this talk up to those actually educated enough to know what they're talking about, it seems to make a lot of sense. The Pfizer and Astra vaccines have completely different approaches to generating immunity, makes sense that when you stack them up they'd be complimentary.

Also having it in a generic syringe where it can easily be confused for a speed boost, or poison antidote. Should of definitely just of had it in like a purple potion or something. How do they expect me to speedrun the hospital level when it's so hard to tell which is which!

Yeah but there's been a fair bit of evidence coming out in general that the Pfizer protection against symptomatic infection (as opposed to severe illness and hospitalisation which is the important part) seems to drop off as time goes by. And 47% protection against symptomatic infection is still better than 0%. I remain hopeful that given how much time and effort is being devoted to vaccines of all stripes, we may have a much better mixture that offers better and longlasting protection in the next year or two. And maybe beyond that we might come up with something that grants sterilising immunity and we can actually get to work on wiping the loving thing out.

Still going to be a bloody long time though. Plenty of developing countries are still very close to 0% vaccinated.

dr_rat posted:People are planning which booster they want? I was just going to shove my hand into a bag of random vaccines and take which ever one I can grab first. I believe that the plan is that Moderna and Novavax will be mostly the booster jabs. AZ first / Moderna booster is the absolute best you can get altho a Pfizer booster is really drat good too with AZ. Novavax is supposed to be extremely good against Delta too. Basically so far as far as I've read, any vaccine as a booster works and is approaching sterilization level immunity mostly because of the spread of time between shots - all the vaccines that are dual shot work better with a three month interval (AZ espeically) and the six month interval is pretty much perfect for reminding the immune system and not really dropping off in protection. Getting a population initial vaccinations fast was the idea with the three week interval that works with mRNA but as noted there is a dropoff of long term protection of symtomatic Covid, but not in actual breakthrough serious/hospitalisation cases quote:quote: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

There was an outbreak in an oncology ward in Melbourne last year. Every time I had to go to hospital last year I was worried the same would happen here in Sydney.

hope the kids in the cancer ward are fine, what a horrible situation and everyone must be so stressed out. In more light hearted news, rumours are getting around that Barilaro knocked up his Senior Advisor... Barnaby Joyce's 22 year old daughter. It's so absurd that I hope it is true. Also having 22 year old Senior Advisors is like the Mormon Church having 18 year old elders.

Pretty strong disconnect between people's reaction to the Children's Hospital thing and advocating for opening up which will mean, at the most conservative level, hundreds of covid-positive people walking through those halls with the same or lesser NPIs

quote:Dominic Perrottet is speaking on ABC Breakfast now. He says announcements about the state’s revised reopening plan will be made later today, with mask wearing to go earlier than expected, but no changes will be made before Monday. https://www.theguardian.com/austral...f08de9fa7784194 The devil is in the detail here. Yesterday the media was suggesting that masks will no longer be required in offices. Perrottet wants people back in offices to revive the nearby small businesses which depend on the foot traffic. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

At least hospitals have strict masking procedures so hopefully it didn't spread from the postitive parent.

Helith posted:I have a really bad feeling about all this It's not as bad as I had feared but switching the focus to the economy before we've even reached the last part of the plan is going to make people believe that Health is being sidelined. Someone from Health needs to be at every presser to keep the vaccination momentum going. Neither Hazzard no Perrottet are suitable for that role.
