I think that's actually about the same as the original J&J efficacy. If you read the fine prints, the J&J vaccine's efficacy was always given as...
There actually hasn't been any improvement in treatment since late last year. With that said, some of the positives are the vaccinated now, so at...
I largely agree with this, and I don't really have an issue with what DeSantis is doing (besides trying to dictate to private entities e.g. cruise...
Why are you quoting some random website quoting NBC News? Where's the NBC News article? I'd like to see it. I couldn't find it in the USA Today...
It's worth repeating, and I'll probably repeat it again later, that death is not the only bad thing that can come from COVID. Those who've had...
Possible. Bed availability most of the time is limited by staffing, not the availability of room and equipment. With that said, staffing can be...
I live in one of those fast growing counties. I'm not sure exactly why there's the discrepancy there, but what has not changed is the fact that...
It could be that the Astra-Zeneca vaccine is not quite as effective. While I can't confirm the 3% number, I can confirm that the vast, vast...
I'm sure their decision is entirely driven by money, as in they probably think they'd make more money by requiring vaccines than not. Whether...
In fact, I've been to restaurants where the staff don't even wear underwear!
I think having different people using different tactics can help increase a message's reach. Whether you agree with his policy, you have to admit...

Heh, basically it says prior exposure to Ad5 can reduce an Ad5-based vaccine's efficacy, and that Ad26 (and Ad35) is different enough to Ad5 that...
The FDA just approved the J&J vaccine. I took a brief look at the data they presented to the FDA, and I thought something was rather interesting....
Hey sorry for the late response, but I had to do some digging for this one. While the Russian papers on Sputnik-V didn't describe their reasons,...
I think you should talk to some of the finance folks who read these companies' quarterly reports regularly. They should give you a pretty good...
Why? It's a purely pandemic/lockdown related downturn, so it makes sense that the economy would bounce back if the pandemic is under control, no?...
Hard to trust the article when there's a glaring error regarding the topic at hand. China reported a 6.8% 1st quarter decline, not 3.3%. I mean,...
I'd say yes and no. Keep in mind that none of the trials regularly tested everyone, they only tested symptomatic individuals. So all the efficacy...
Absolute risk increases with time though, so while it's small during the very expedited study period, it'd get progressively higher as time goes on.
