Pfizer and BioNTech announce their vaccine is USELESS 11 months after dosing…

Well, that’s not how they phrased it.

But it is the only reasonable way to read their press release claiming that the booster is 95% effective.

Remember. The booster is given to people who have RECEIVED the vaccine. (That’s why it’s a booster, right?)

And when they tested a booster against a placebo in those people, they found a 95% reduction in disease in people who received the booster (for a total of 11 weeks after they received the booster, excluding the first week, because science - by which I mean because including that week would not help their results).

95%!

Where have you heard that figure before? Oh yeah, it is EXACTLY the same relative risk reduction they claimed in the pivotal trial last year, when they tested the INITIAL dose against placebo.

The only reasonable read is that the booster is providing (temporary) protection similar to the first two-dose series (temporarily) did AGAINST PLACEBO. But these are VACCINATED people.

So where’s the protection from the initial two doses?

There is ONE difference, though. The ABSOLUTE risk appeared at least two to three times higher in the vaccinated people in this trial than in UNVACCINATED people in the initial trial - 110 infections in 5,000 people in 10 weeks, compared to 162 infections in 20,000 people in about the same period.

Because vaccines work.

If you are vaccinated, get ready to take boosters forever.

By the way, the press release includes NO specific safety data.

Yay Pfizer!

Is there something wrong with getting yearly boosters?  I get a flu shot every year.   

Also lol @ how he thinks vaccines work.

Vaccine mandates hurting employment, Federal Reserve reports

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/fed-vaccine-mandates-labor-shortages

Businesses are reporting that vaccine mandates are contributing to labor supply problems, the Federal Reserve said.
The central bank said that recent economic growth has been modest to moderate in its so-called beige book report, a collection of business anecdotes from each of the regional Federal Reserve banks and a summation of the current nationwide economic environment.

We have learned that safety from something one may never catch is more important that providing for your family.

A good friend of mine is only making half of what he used to make prior to the shutdown. Cant find a job that pays the same and his old job isnt bringing his position back.

Hes also unvaxxed, anti mask, and been living life since day 1 and hasnt caught covid. Even though hes been in close contact multiple times with someone who was positive.

Lol maybe one of the reasons is hard to get a job is being unvaxxed and maskless if only there was a solution to that....jobs like people who follow the law and rules.    :geekdanc:

Isn't really about family after all eh.

I wouldn't say "we have learned". . .

Impacts of COVID on the economy, jobs, etc is definitely real.  I've been really lucky in no real impact.  Sucks that your friend is impacted so. . .

Yeah, he lost his job back in April/May ish 2020.  He's in the high end leather goods retail industry.  So when no Asian tourist were coming, they let him and many others go.  But they did pay their salaries for a few months, which is super cool.  So even while on unemployment and making good money on it, he was actively looking for a like job.  He knows UI will stop at some point, so he wanted to get ahead of the rest who apply later.  No one was hiring for his position. He isn't sales.  His company didn't bring his position back either.  And months later other high end leather retailers were only paying half of what he was making.  He has 20 years in this industry, so to switch careers is difficult because he would be starting all over.

He did find another job in a totally different industry, but basically at the bottom and still only making half of what he used to make.  So he had 1 life style he was comfortable with, only to be screwed by the mandatory quarantines.

Also his vaxx status has nothing to do with trying to get his old job or like jobs back because the vaxx wasn't around yet in 2020.  And even today, those types of companies are not requiring it. He follows up every few months to see if his old position is back.

Like you, our jobs were secure from Covid.  I made a little less, but still we were able to maintain our current life style.  But I got many friends who weren't as lucky.  Most in the hotel industry.  What made me sad were the people being interviewed in line at the food distribution areas who were in tears.  I do have 1 friend in the hotel industry who this entire thing worked out for him. He's valet and the head guy retired.  So he got the promotion.

The pandemic nor did the China virus caused this - it was our govt's response to it. Virus is like the honey badger - it don't care what you do it will do its thing. We didn't accept that and we did what we did at a very significant cost.
