Not really, no. Organized "day care" in the states is basically kids starting kindergarten. It's a broken, hodge-podged system here with no real planning. At some point a few years ago a woman was running an illegal day care out of her house in Colorado Springs. When authorities went to check her house, she had 26 kids hiding behind a false wall. https://www.denverpost.com/2019/12/26/colorado-springs-daycare-arrested-kids-false-wall/

Ataxerxes posted:Are there any states in the US that have kids daycare centrally organized? I was looking at the numbers of the Finnish system where you pay at most 290€/child/month for daycare, and that is if there are two parents who make a total of at least 6600€/month pre-taxes. With less income you pay less, with people with very low income paying nothing. Actually, that's radical leftist communism

In America, your CEO ends your company’s parental leave and daycare allowance while also getting a private daycare put in next to their office. (Marissa Mayer did this at Yahoo!)

In the department of Science Is Hard - the J&J COVID vaccine is likely no longer a one-and-done deal. It's basically a 2-shot vaccine now, with two months between doses: https://twitter.com/NPR/status/1449067930440904713?t=OduuR7v71VHD9flPEf4Zpg&s=19 The company came in wanting to push boosters after 6 months and the FDA panel was like "uh, your data is too rosy, we think this is a 2-dose vaccine based on our studies". facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 19:20 on Oct 15, 2021 |

facialimpediment posted:The company came in wanting to push boosters after 6 months and the FDA panel was like "uh, your data is too rosy, we think this is a 2-dose vaccine based on our studies". Yeah the “one and done” was a consequence of J&J’s timing and position in the vaccine race. Pfizer & Moderna ran the trials with two shots because we know that effective vaccination can require a multi‐shot series, and that was the conservative choice. We didn’t have the luxury to wait and see how the trial participants were doing before giving them a second shot. J&J went into the trials with a single‐dose strategy from the start because they were behind and the convenience of a single shot to patients and providers would constitute their niche. If the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines had been tested as single shots, they would have shown decent results and received EUA under that protocol. When the followup data trickled in, they would have been in the exact same position J&J is in now. People who received the J&J shot will feel that this is a bait and switch, which it kind of is, but not for the reasons they think it is.

So what does that mean for people who got the J&J shot back in April/May, they've missed that booster window by about half a year at this point? Do they go through another series or do they just get the booster and the efficacy is similar?

Right now, it's still unclear because the J&J to Pfizer/Moderna studies are still being run. There's currently no solid scientific guidance for those that received a J&J, other than what Platy said - you likely just go into for another J&J starting after next week's FDA approval. The mixing/matching is a grey area until the studies are completed.

https://twitter.com/EricTopol/status/1448353685965131779 Now, this is data about antibodies from blood draws, not efficacy against disease in the real world. There is a strong presumption that they correlate, but we would of course like to see real‐world results. Topol continues his thoughts in a few further tweets. Something I would like to add is that boosting J&J with either of the mRNA vaccines causes less unpleasant side effects. If I had gotten the J&J vaccine, I would want an mRNA booster based on this data. I understand that allowing for mix & match multiplies the complexity for regulators, but for me personally? It’s a no‐brainer. e: No one should take this as a reason not to get a second J&J shot when it is made available to you. You want a booster, any booster.
