More data coming up that shows moderna elicits a stronger immune response than Pfizer. Something to keep in mind for those of us on team blue when boosters are rolled out.

Pfizer is the only vaccine approved for kids under 18 though, right?

Can you show me the quote of them saying that?

Harris did say something like that but with context it is this

"I will say that I would not trust Donald Trump” on the reliability of a vaccine, Harris said. The California senator, however, added that she would trust a "credible” source who could vouch that a vaccine was safe for Americans to receive.

Donald Trump told everyone to take hydroxychloroquine.  He tweeted it out multiple times.

Moderna is 18+, Pfizer is 12+

Moderna applied for an EUA for 12+ but it's still pending

Current Pfizer trial for 5-11 is nearly complete, application submission expected in a month

Moderna's trial for 6-11 is expected to be completed around Nov.

Pfizer trial for 6mos - 4 is expected to be completed in Nov.

Unfortunately, there are signs the FDA might drag their feet on these approvals, which would be super frustrating. Apparently there's a potential cultist on the advisory committee that thinks kids getting covid is nbd.

 

EDIT: moderna is 18+, not 16+

Thanks.  My 12-y-o just got her second shot. (Obviously Pfizer)

Yeah I know. Neither of them actually said what the other poster says they did.

I remember them saying they'd trust scientists instead of simply trusting the guy telling everyone to inject bleach. Sucks that your guy lost though. You think maybe that election wasn't quite fair and square? Either way, better luck in 2024!

If people took the bleach injection seriously then I don't know what to say.  I guess it's like saying We will get all Americans out of Afghanistan that want to get out.  I was fine with the election and didn't think it was stolen.  It was repeated many times that there are consequences to an election and we are paying the consequences now.  Unfortunately we have 3+ more years of consequences.

Correction: Moderna is currently 18+, not 16+, my bad

I know exactly what to say, "DCotP"...

Unfortunately we may not get to hear from the Americans left behind.  Is one lie better than the other?

I'm not exactly sure what thread you think you're in or what point you think you're making here. I've already been critical of the fact we've abandoned Americans in Afghanistan. Buck up though, maybe Ron DeSantis can turn things around for the maga cult in 2024! I hear he's doing a real swell job right now. :lol:

It’s the wrong thread but….since we’re here….

the trumplicans insist the Dems won because too many dead people voted so Desantis is just filling out his voting roster. He’s a Genius.

Hero officers in Australia stopped non-mask compliant father in a deserted park in Sydney. Thank goodness they were there, or we'd never know how many trees could have been infected by this psycho.

PA will require masks for all K-12 schools and child care facilities.

Gov. Wolf will announce today around 2PM?

Been swamped today, but this was pretty big. 

I think this is also about cover for a lot of school boards. There are a lot of school board administrators who knew mask mandates were the right thing to do for the safety of the kids, but they were legitimately being threatened by parents (and even non-parent members of the public). Multiple CBSD school board members have reported being harassed and threatened at their homes if they voted for a mask mandate. 

Wolf is taking the heat so these board members can throw their hands up and say "that's the law"

officially because they're only going through trials with the same brands, I think doctors can only recommend you get a booster of whatever you originally got.

unofficially, from what I've heard doctors are suggesting mixing it up might be helpful. 

I have no idea if that makes sense.

True, i think they're gonna try to give you the same brand if they have it. If they don't though, I imagine they'll still give you whatever they have, but I could be wrong. My point though, was that those of us on team blue should have a sense of urgency in getting that booster sooner rather than later if you're trying to ward off symptomatic infection. Team red can wait a bit knowing they should have somewhat better protection already.

yeah the wife and I got pfizer, and my son will be getting it soon as well. 

as far as the politics of COVID go, I'm not sure what else you can expect Biden to do. if people want to be idiots and not do the things that will help at least minimize deaths and spread because their personal politics override common sense, short of ordering a vaccine mandate (which he couldn't even do legally) Biden simply doesn't have the authority to do more.

he's pressed private companies to issue the mandates he cannot by proxy. vaccines are readily available.

people are just fugging stupid.

I can’t believe Biden can’t convince people who think he eats babies to get vaccinated and wear a mask.
