Covid-19 vaccines saved an estimated 20m lives during their first year
Their impact in poor countries depends on how effectively governments prioritised recipients Jul 7th 2022 The development of covid-19 vaccines was a scientific triumph. Converting it into medical benefits has required getting shots into the arms of as many people as possible, a process fraught with political and logistical hurdles. Nonetheless, a new study finds that jabs cut the disease’s death toll by 63% during their first year... https://www.economist.com/graphic-de...eir-first-year See also Lancet infectious diseases 2022, O.

1. As well as it worked against the Alpha and Delta strain, it works just as bad if not at all against Omicron 2. Because it doesn't work very well at all against Omicron, people still screaming to get boosted are loosing some credibility. At this point, unless you are severely immunocompromised, there isn't a need to get the vax or get boosted until they come out with a vax that addresses Omicron. And, imo, the pro-vax people would do their credibility good if they joined in that type of message. The problem is the powers that be are in fear of being seen as not doing anything even when doing nothing is doing more good than doing "something". |

Thought I might be one of those with some natural immunity, but tested positive this past Sunday. It's pretty rough, have had just about all the known symptoms - can't imagine that the vaccine has made any difference, but could have been worse I guess. Coming out the other side (I think), just hoping now the wife escapes getting sick.

I'd like more data on what kind of benefit a 4th shot with the reformulated version would do to benefit me. |
