[Thread] 1. Glenda Gray, @MRCza: How effective are different #COVID vaccines @ the Beta variant (B.1.351)?
* #JnJ: 64%
* Novavax: 48.6%
* AstraZeneca: 10%
* #JnJ: 64%
* Novavax: 48.6%
* AstraZeneca: 10%
2. Early lab data shows that the #JnJ vaccine works against both the Beta and Delta variants, but better against the #DeltaVariant.
3. Do we need to boost the #JnJ vaccine with a second shot (currently you only get one shot)? Not yet. Data shows that an immune response is maintained over time from a single shot for up to eight months after vaccination.
I think there should be serious discussion in the US for a male president who out of fear of COVID will send HIS WIFE INSTEAD OF HIMSELF and that makes it OK. What does it say about the country? Is it OK because it is diplomatically OK, even during a global pandemic?
There is a historical precedent where President Obama sent The First Lady during the London Olympics. But that was during normal times. It was a diplomatic decision made during peace time. But today, we are in the midst of a global pandemic.

Health experts around the world, including government advisors are warning about #Tokyo2020 becoming a possible place for mixing of variants & super-spreader event. And the possibility is getting REAL by the day. I wonder if the Americans are caught up.
