As of today, 199.88M Americans have received at least one dose (72.5% of adults). We'll finally pass the 200M mark tomorrow. 169.6M are fully vaccinated (62.1%)

Top 5 (1+ dose over age 18): HI 86.4%, VT 86.1%, MA 85.9%, CT 84.1%, NJ 81.6%

Texas: 68.3%

Bottom 5: WY 54.1%, MS 54.8%, WV 55.4%, ID 56.9%, AL 57.7%

Yep.

Fucking dammit. I have to travel to Stillwater for work next week. I guess I’ll get my third and fourth shot tomorrow just to be safe.

This is good.  Too late to really help, but better than nothing. 

Just got my booster. 
 

after, I looked a the card and realized it’s only been seven months since the 2nd shot.  Am I going to get the 5G??

So has Delta peaked?

6G

This is all too experimental, it was too rushed, too hasty...call me when the shot boosts up to 11G.

Well yeah, but why don't you just take the 10G shot and have it be stronger, and have that be the top number?

Not reading 1000 pages…

If someone got their first two shots through some county deal like APH where they don’t inquire about your insurance or take any personal information outside of your name, DOB, and look at your drivers license, could you roll into H‑E‑B or CVS with your insurance and get #3 and #4 as if they were #1 and #2?

You said Wednesday and I said on a Friday.  We are both wrong, because it's always on a Tuesday.

probably.  maybe you could just ask them for a drip you can take home.

Delta will peak on Tuesday, it's always Tuesday.  Now which Tuesday you ask?  Ahh there's the rub.  

The first Tuesday in October according to the graph Sawbonz posted.

Pfizer full FDA approval Monday.  

Off label x to age 11 on Tuesday? Commercials starring Trumo family?

Do you mean we may get under 12s approved on Tuesday?

Been following this thread and enjoying the stupidity from some...unfortunately it's bled into my own circle.

Unvaxxed extended family update:

Cousins husband: died Tuesday. Was extremely overweight. 34 yrs old. Wife was vaccinated and is fine.

Wife's cousin: been in hospital 6 wks. Intubated currently. Not looking good.

Wife's other cousin: got covid, dealing with it at home. Taking ivermectin. Can't wait to see how this turns out.

New line from the anti-vax crowd is the government rushed the FDA approval. "Do you know most FDA approvals take five years?"

Well do you know how much of that time is the documentation sitting in line?

So they let the covid vaccines jump the line?  Huh, weird, I wonder why?

If only there was real life data from people who took the actual covid vaccine, and not a just a thousand people in some blind study…..

Man, we can dream I guess…

Actually, I understand the story is that all of us vaxxed people “will be dead within a year.” Guess the vaccine’s gonna make our heads explode or something.

This doesn’t exactly answer that, but it does give some interesting timeline data. 
 

https://www.fda.gov/media/97229/download

 

I will direct attention to the slide that shows drug discovery at several years and then clinicals at several more, as the vast majority of the timeline. We know that drug discovery was shortened considerably from both the technology available to sequence the virus and the focus on it. 
 

the IND and NDA review which is the fda’s role in all of this seems to be right in line with their expedited timelines. The only time compression I’m not sure on is the clinicals- I think they were allowed to either jump right to stage 3 or have very abbreviated stage 1 and 2.

How should I balance the risk of my May-birthday 11-yr old boy growing a second head from getting a too "high" for his age dose of the Covid vaccine now, versus outcome from Covid due to waiting with thumbs up our asses for approval for under-12s? 

Sick of being sitting ducks here and spouse with J&J gimp shot getting no guidance from CDC or doctor other than to wait and see about booster.

Looks like that gives us 8-10 more months than the non vaxxed. 

Here’s a link to a paper about non human primate studies, so that was done. 
 

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmoa2024671

 

and here’s mice. 
https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-moderna-investigational-covid-19-vaccine-shows-promise-mouse-studies

mouse study finished in august 2020, nonhuman primate finished October 2020, then we started the human trials and had the EA a couple of months later. 
 

shit just went fast because we wanted it to. There were no financial driven delays, and no sitting in line. Nothing seems to have been skipped.

Why do drug studies and approval take a lot of time? It costs a shit ton of money, resources, and you do the steps sequentially. And yes, there is a long ass line for the FDA. Covid erased all those obstacles and they did all the steps concurrently. Saves a shit ton of time. Oh, we have unlimited resources, and every scientist in the world can help work on the solution. Yeah. Might speed things up.

One thought, and this relates to FDA approval... once there is adult pfizer approval, a doc can do "off label" use of a drug. I.e. perhaps give an adult 30ug shot to a child. Will many pediatricians do that? I have no idea. Liability concerns, naturally.  If you have 2 kids, maybe they could split a single 30ug dose (so 15 units, the 5-11 cohort study is 10ug) each. But my understanding is that could happen, completely legally, as soon as next week. 

Now, as someone who may know someone who had a 6th grader who is the same size and development as many other kids in the same grade technically a few months older... I bet there are tens of thousands of folks who have already done it. Maybe one of those folks would come clean to their pediatrician and see if they would provide a reduced child size dosage for the second shot. That's all theoretical mind you. I have heard, sample size of 1, no ill effects were noted after 1 shot.

Additionally, with FDA approval off-label use would let doc give a J&J based person get a pfizer or moderna.

Mice are not normally considered a 'tox species'. Part of the preclinical data package in many instances, yes, but at least in oncology they are not used to show toxicity.

That said, according to the Pfizer EAU memo the non-clinical tox studies were repeat dose studies in rats. Additional studies 'to support safety and efficacy' were in rhesus macaques and mice (so what do I know).

Cross posting this, but a free antibody study ongoing through UT. They're studying vaccines and antibody levels. Testing locations all over.

 

I got the gimp J&J 5 moths ago but had a really strong reaction. I'll share my numbers when I get them

I got mine, would be interested in comparing numbers with anyone else that got tested..
