This was said a million times, but it was not getting through.
Now think of all the India, Iran, Brazil serosurveys that looked at anti-N abs.

How many infections did they miss?

The morons are at it again.

"What makes more sense"?

There are only two options. 3rd dose or no 3rd dose.

In what reality does not taking a vaccine make more sense than taking one?

None. Makes no immunological sense. Image
What difference does it make? Image
"Exhaust your immune system" has entered the chat. Image

The fragility, limited shelf-life and wastage of Moderna and Pfizer vaccines is a feature, not a bug.

$MRNA $PFE
The West's (one sided) loyalty to the mRNA vaccines, despite a non-negligible resistance to the platform from some patients & parents, some rising contraindications & undeniably increasing prices, loyalty to the point of cancelling orders from other companies, is almost comical.
Countries basically create a vaccine duopoly themselves, with their own research ( $MRNA) or gov funding (OWS), then with their own orders, then making it the only recognized vaccine for foreigners' vax-pass, then complain of duopoly tactics & higher prices.

This idea that Europeans taking a booster or a fraction of American kids taking a fraction (1/3rd) of a Pfizer dose is taking vaccines away from other countries is not supported by the data.

Vaccination in the US and Europe is way down.

But people on Twitter love to punch down. Image
"Canadians are taking too many vaccines," meanwhile, no booster for vulnerable, no shots for kids. Image

Why SARS-CoV was more virulent than SARS-CoV-2
(part of the reason, temps, replication kinetics) and why temperature won't tell us a lot about origins or intermediary animals.
biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Bats have higher temps than minks and civets.

But just because it transmits in the air doesn't mean that it needs to be a (cool temp) respiratory infection. Could be an enteric one in the animals, where it's hotter.
