I was chatting with my brother and happened to mention that the flesh-eating buruli ulcers were endemic here in Victoria but still extremely rare and he went "Oh yeah a friend of mine got that in his butt cheek. The doctor said it was so deep he could have stuck his entire thumb in there." Mycobacterium ulcerans ripped him a new rear end in a top hat, lmao

I would never do crimes, because I am a fine, upstanding citizen. But I am remarkably empty headed at times. If I got a monovalent jab as soon as they were released, but then I forgot that I'd had one, and went to a different pharmacy to get Novavax, and had trouble filling out the forms with my identifying information, and paid out of pocket... Could I stupid myself into getting both?

Hungry Squirrel posted:(..) We don't currently know exactly how the transition to the private market is going to work (and particularly how it will work if you have no insurance). It is a major change. I realize you are gunning for getting the mRNA now and Novavax later, but I think the recommendation has to be that if you are getting exposed now, get one of the mRNAs immediately and consider follow-ups later.

It's not like Novavax is a miracle drug. There is apparently some value in being, I forget what the phrase is, but basically "immunologically interesting" where you immunity comes from a variety of sources instead of 4/5/6 Pfizer shots. So having a bunch of shots of different make is better, but that doesn't make the new mRNA one useless.

everyone in the thread trying to get novavax is making me positively swell with pride. yes, yes.....the masses beg for the moth guts and tree blood coursing through my veins.......haha ye.s..... though honestly, i've been telling my friends that i'm not confident in all the novavax hype going around rn, like the reason they are late is they keep having manufacturing issues, the data and model is interesting but i'm not sure it's got the kind of real world efficacy the mRNAs have seen, heterologous vaccination does seem good but mostly i think this is anxiety coping desperately for a better solution. as Rochallor said it's not a miracle drug. just beautiful, glorious moth guts.

Shear Modulus posted:Is the Novavax one supposed to be better? This is the data we have (from the ACIP presentations, where there is more):    Considering the different test subjects they aren't comparable at all, but if we were to compare them, there is no clear pattern for preference  But the wildtype Novavax had comparable protection as the bivalent vaccine. We cannot say the same with confidence about the new Novavax, but due to the way it works (and - I would argue - being an atypical vaccine), it seems likely to provide more broad protection (meaning more sturdy against new variants). ACIP presentations can be found here: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/meetings/slides-2023-09-12.html

So wait I haven't been following, how are the shots being distributed? You have to pay $120, AND get a doctor order? Or is it just $120, with some kind of means tested subsidies probably if you get down and kiss Fauci's shoes?

Supposed to be free if you have insurance and there is a different program if you do not (though last we heard that could be a month delayed). Children are under a different program. See the bottom of the article in this post for some details:

fosborb will you change the thread title to reflect that the new boosters are now available? "CDC Recommends Updated COVID-19 Vaccine for Fall/Winter Virus Season" https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2023/p0912-COVID-19-Vaccine.html posted:CDC recommends everyone 6 months and older get an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect against the potentially serious outcomes of COVID-19 illness this fall and winter. Updated COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna will be available later this week.

Morbus posted:You can literally just make appointments with your real name to different pharmacies and get the same shot multiple times. It's not a problem if you pay for it out of pocket. I truly did not know this. I thought that it was somehow entered into a database that would show the pharmacist your vaccine record, causing them to reject you for extra shots. Typing that out, I do see that it's giving a whole lot of organizations too much credit, but it sounded right in my head. Anyway, thanks! My kid and I have appointments on Monday at a local CVS to get jabbed with Moderna.

That can be the case. Be advised it depends on state. Edit: Actually not sure about if you pay for it, as the privately purchased doses are nominally new. However - as far as I know - Novavax is still under Emergency Use Authorization, so that one cannot be used off-label. Pingui has issued a correction as of 02:45 on Sep 13, 2023 |

well the cvs website says that the new vaccines are available and prompts you to schedule an appointment so I did. first available was Monday 18th, so I assume that’s when they’re expecting to have them.
