Steve Yun posted:it targets parts of the virus that don’t change between variants, It doesn’t though. It can be claimed that some titrations showed worse neutralization from recipients of Comirnaty/Spikevax Legacy Edition (at a time when the Omicron-targeting bivalent shots were also available) than from Novavax Legacy Edition. There is speculation that the better neutralization is thanks to the spike being attached to free-floating nanoparticles rather than excreted at cell membranes, or that the adjuvant is key, but all three vaccines approved in the U.S. present essentially the same full-length spike.

Finally not being able to find a mRNA shot pays off! Unless of course I am unable to get a novavax appointment either ,

mdemone posted:what I'm hearing is "get both" It’s a solid hypothesis that getting a second shot targeting XBB.1.5 is more important this year than getting a third shot of the original formulation was in October 2021, but the sociological construction of the end of the pandemic is so complete that no one from government panelists to journalist to Max Titers is considering it.

Awesome on the Novavax news. I have an appointment for next week to get Pfizered that I'm not gonna cancel just yet though, gonna wait and see if Novavax actually appears as an option anywhere between now and then since I need some max titers in late October/early November.

Death of Innocence posted:Does anyone have any good ideas on covid safe jobs? I know most people would suggest work from home and remote jobs, I have a BA in Economics and I’m open to those suggestions, but as a cursed Millennial nearly all my jobs have been retail, grocery, and food service. I did work at an extremely hosed up family business for more than a decade so I do have business management, clerical, administrative, etc. experience. I was working at a fast casual restaurant when covid hit, and I eventually left for a job maintaining the landscaping around utility poles, which was equally awesome and terrible (threats from chud landowners, working with herbicides, pay was good but not enough to move within commuting distance) and I would like to get back to something like that if I can find the right opportunity. Most recently I have been working as a medical courier, which probably doesn’t count as covid safe, but I got only minimal pushback on my mask. Working as a medical courier does not pay enough. These last two jobs are similar in that I would drive a company vehicle places and then do stuff. Driving a company vehicle means most of the day I am not exposed to coworkers and customers. I would prefer outside work that lets me move around and physically do things, I maybe wouldn’t prefer to sit at a computer. I don’t want to be just a driver, which is also too much sitting. Mostly I need something attainable that gets me out of minimum wage hell and lets me rent like a basic studio apartment and save a little money every month. My SIL become a medical coder (not the programming kind) by taking an exam after studying a bit. She works for Kaiser and is 100% remote.

are there any useful reports of novavax vs. mrna efficacy for what's actually floating around right now? i'm aiming moth due to seemingly lower incidence of side effects. i don't know if there's substantial evidence that mixing moth + 5g does anything magical. is there a strong theoretical basis for believing it does? as long as novavax isn't significant less capable than mrna, that's my shot.

Insanite posted:are there any useful reports of novavax vs. mrna efficacy for what's actually floating around right now? The data we have from the vaccine producers on the XBB.1.5 vaccines are blood sera from: humans (Moderna), mice (Pfizer) and macaque monkeys (Novavax). So there isn't much basis for direct comparison.

Insanite posted:are there any useful reports of novavax vs. mrna efficacy for what's actually floating around right now? i believe theyre targeting the same variant but novavax provides a larger chunk of protein for the immune system to look at so in theory that might make it generate more durable immunity across variants perhaps possibly but i dont think there's any good cross comparison data on the actual real world efficacy for the boosters

sonatinas posted:so I can stack my mRNA with novavax? looks like it unless I’m not understanding something. The charts are from before the approval of Novavax Kraken Edition. Now, from today’s Novavax Kraken approval: quote:2.3 Dose and Schedule In contrast, quote:2.3 Dosing and Schedule Unvaccinated persons would be wise to seek Novavax now, because a prime+boost of Novavax Kraken is liable to set them up better than a single shot of Comirnaty/Spikevax Kraken.
