BacktoCricaddict Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/06/health/coronavirus-vaccine-doctor-death/index.html Quote The Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner is investigating the death of a doctor weeks after he received a Covid-19 vaccine, according to Darren Caprara, director of operations at the medical examiner's office. Caprara said his office is working with the Florida Department of Health and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to investigate the death of Dr. Gregory Michael. His death has not definitively been linked to the vaccine, but that is among the possibilities being explored, Caprara added. The CDC confirmed it "is aware of a reported death in Florida of an individual who received the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine about two weeks before passing away," a spokeswoman said by email Wednesday night. As of Jan 6, about 5.3 million people in the US have received at least one dose of a CoViD vaccine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarke Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 @BacktoCricaddict any idea on the suggested duration of vaccine efficacy across the options ? Could some/all end up like the flu vaccine which is updated seasonally ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could some/all end up like the flu vaccine which is updated seasonally ? We don't have enough information yet. It depends on the strength of immunogenicity as well as on the mutation rate. . If one vaccine is shown not to provide long-term immunity (and that's the one you first took), you could always take another one in the future if it is proven to provide long-term immunity. In fact, I would expect the market and/or regulatory agencies to phase out the short-term ones over time if long-term ones are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarke Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 So the nanotech based battery powering the circuit in the vaccine has a life of six months, that's terrific! If they made that tech public, it could solve climate change. But then they would lose their control over our lives, how much to pay for fuel, how to travel, what to eat etc. It all makes sense now.

BacktoCricaddict Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 Pfizer Biontech vaccine effective in neutralizing UK and South Africa strains https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-021-01270-4?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_content=organic&utm_campaign=NGMT_USG_JC01_GL_NRJournals We engineered three severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viruses containing key spike mutations from the newly emerged United Kingdom (UK) and South African (SA) variants: N501Y from UK and SA; 69/70-deletion + N501Y + D614G from UK; and E484K + N501Y + D614G from SA. Neutralization geometric mean titers (GMTs) of 20 BTN162b2 vaccine-elicited human sera against the three mutant viruses were 0.81- to 1.46-fold of the GMTs against parental virus, indicating small effects of these mutations on neutralization by sera elicited by two BNT162b2 doses.

But context is important: In the 2nd week of January, over 30,000 people over 75 y.o received the vaccine. 33 out of those people (1 in 1000), all of whom were already seriously or terminally ill, passed away in a week or two. While we are all sad for them and their families, the vaccine did not kill them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BacktoCricaddict Posted February 25, 2021 Author Share Posted February 25, 2021 This is the best vaccine news of all. No matter what success you have in clinical trials, it is not a success until you see it in the field. Now, there is data showing real-world results! https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-56143126 Israel is easing lockdown restrictions as studies there reveal the Pfizer vaccine is 95.8% effective in preventing hospitalisations and death. On Saturday, the health ministry said studies revealed the risk of illness from the virus has dropped 95.8% among people who have had both doses of the Pfizer vaccine. It also found that the vaccine was 98% effective in preventing fever or breathing problems. mishra and Clarke 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The agency said it was aware that Denmark had suspended use but that there was "currently no indication that vaccination has caused these conditions, which are not listed as side effects with this vaccine." "The vaccine's benefits continue to outweigh its risks and the vaccine can continue to be administered while investigation of cases of thromboembolic events is ongoing," the agency added. The EMA also noted that the number of blood clots seen in vaccine recipients was no higher than the rate among people who had not received the shot in Europe.

mishra Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I know someone locally saying 40 teachers got pfizer. Few had issues but One had to be admitted to hospital post vaccination. But she survived. There are side effects of every vaccine. Singling out one vaccine is pure politics as there was a major row between Astrazaneca and EU over vaccine supply. Eu can go and eff itself. Thank Britain for coming out if EU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
