Relaxing mitigations too much with a quarter of the population vaccinated could be a mistake...
Yeah, in the no shit column. Spiking the ball on the 10 yard line.Relaxing mitigations too much with a quarter of the population vaccinated could be a mistake...
We need roughly half of the population vaccinated in order to be at the very edge of herd immunity (assuming those who have already have the disease still have enough protection against it). That is not very far away. So, we can wait a few weeks or destroy our progress. Clearly many people have chosen to destroy our progress.Relaxing mitigations too much with a quarter of the population vaccinated could be a mistake...

An expert in neuro-infectious diseases, Koralnik has years of experience researching and treating viral infections that result in neurological conditions — like encephalitis caused by the herpes virus, and Guillain-Barré syndrome developing in people infected with Zika. “There are dozens of viruses that cause neurological problems,” Koralnik tells Rolling Stone, “but nothing like what we’ve seen with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus.”

We're getting partial herd immunity at this point. I can't express how glad I am to be fully vaccinated. I haven't changed my behavior a ton yet but it's like having a monkey off my back.Looks like Connecticut is approaching 30% vaccinated!

“It is possible that patients who receive their flu vaccine are also people who are practicing more social distancing and following CDC guidelines. However, it is also plausible that there could be a direct biological effect of the flu vaccine on the immune system relevant for the fight against SARS-CoV-2 virus,” senior author Professor Marion Hofmann Bowman, from the Michigan Medicine Frankel Cardiovascular Center, said in a statement.
That is interesting. I know the flu vaccine is linked to reductions in numerous other wintertime infections. I don't think there is a clear explanation of the why, though.Interesting. It might not be that important now with covid vaccines out but would of been nice to have a larger sample taken.
Flu Vaccine Linked To Fewer and Less Severe Covid Cases

I read about some trials in the EU that tried to give other vaccines like the live TB vaccine to see if it helped prevent COVID from the immunity system pumping up its defenses, but I never saw the results, which likely means they weren't great.This has been getting some attention recently, I recall seeing discussion last spring. What coverage I've seen on the topic suggests it is a natural occurrence with the simple act of vaccination, as an immune system that is getting keyed up due to artificial invaders is still keyed up and thus may respond to other immunological threats at a faster pace. But I haven't seen whether this occurs with just any ol' vaccine, specifically just influenza vaccines, or if this is more specifically due to adjuvants in use for select vaccines (whether with influenza or other virus).
I really don't get why they are acting like they are if they have nothing to hide. I don't believe the lab conspiracy, but the more they do stuff like this the more I wonder. I'd also like to know what their real numbers were, especially in Wuhan, no way those will real numbers with all of reports that were coming out at the time.60 Minutes ran a story earlier tonight and the WHO team in mainland china earlier this year was very much in a "tour guide" and nothing else. Commie china decided what, who, when, and why.
