A guide to whether Johnson & Johnson vaccine recipients should get a booster shot — and how they might do so. --NY Times

Mon, 2021-09-13 19:11 — mike kraft

... Should people who received the single-shot Johnson & Johnson Covid vaccine be getting a booster shot?..

The question of booster shots for the other two vaccines being used in the U.S. — the double-shot vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer, which are both based on genetic technology known as mRNA — has received more attention. Many experts believe that at least immunocompromised people and older adults are likely to benefit from a third shot.

OPINION: We should create a 9/11 style COVID commission

Why wouldn't we create a 9/11 style COVID commission? What is most certain, is that if we fail to come together to examine this crisis and make improvements on all levels of government, we will be doomed to repeat its failures. Ben Smilowitz, opinion contributor TheHill

CNBC poll shows very little will persuade most unvaccinated Americans to get Covid shots

Mon, 2021-09-13 11:46 — mike kraft

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/09/10/cnbc-poll-shows-very-little-will-persuade-unvaccinated-americans-to-get-covid-shots.html?__source=sharebar|email&par=sharebar

Americans who are unvaccinated against Covid-19 are largely driven by a mistrust of the government and fears over vaccine side effects, and there is very little that can be done to persuade them to get the shots, a new CNBC/Change Research poll reveals.

Change Research surveyed 1,775 respondents for CNBC from Aug. 30 to Sept. 2 about Americans’ views on Covid vaccines, President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump and other issues.

Among the 29% of U.S. voters who are unvaccinated, 83% say they do not plan to get the lifesaving shots, the survey shows. ...

Of the unvaccinated respondents, 84% said their decision against immunization wouldn’t change if the vaccines had no side effects and 87% said they still wouldn’t get the shots if their employer mandated them. Just 5% and 4% of respondents, respectively, said those things would make them “much more likely” to change their minds, the survey shows. Pressure from family members made little difference, with just 2% saying that would make them much more likely to get the shots.

Analysis : Vaccine mandates will slow the pandemic but not immediately, scientistys say

Fri, 2021-09-10 20:55 — mike kraft

President Biden’s new coronavirus vaccine mandates will have sweeping ramifications for businesses, schools and the political discourse in the United States. But for many scientists, the question is a simpler one: Will these measures turn back a surging pandemic?

The answer: Yes, in the longer term.

It has become clear that the nation cannot hope to end the pandemic with some 37 percent of Americans not having received a single dose of Covid vaccine, several experts said in interviews. Cases and hospitalizations are only expected to rise as Americans move indoors in homes, schools and offices in the cooling weather.

The administration’s new plan should stem the flood of infections and return the country to some semblance of normalcy over the longer term, the researchers said.

“It’s going to fundamentally shift the arc of the current surge,” said Dr. Ashish Jha, dean of Brown University School of Public Health. “It’s exactly what’s needed at this moment.”

New CDC studies show some fading of vaccine effectiveness against hospitalization in elderly

Fri, 2021-09-10 19:28 — mike kraft
New CDC studies show waning vaccine effectiveness against hospitalization in elderly Two of the analyses suggest that as the Delta variant spread this summer, the shots became less effective at keeping people 75 and older out of the hospital. Erin Banco POLITICO

Covid-19 vaccines continue to work well at preventing severe disease for the vast majority of Americans but they are becoming less effective at blocking infection, according to a series of studies the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released Friday.
