I wanna say they have to draw it out. I remember a story when the vaccine first started to be administered about how the vials are supposed to hold 5 doses. But some viles were slightly overfilled and actually held 6 doses, but they were not allowed to use the extra. Things could have changed since though.

Yeah some were able to draw out that extra dose in the vial if they had graduated needles. Just wasnt sure if that needle was still topped out at the right volume already, or if they were using something that could draw out more than the actual dose.

A Maryland man accused of killing his pharmacist

You can thank the dedicated WV State Police (my brother is one) for bringing him to justice.

Why would he go to West Virginia ??  Oh, that's right, to hide out with the rest of the anti vax wackadoo's.

My mom and aunt both got theirs together.

He was probably easy to spot since he was the only middle-aged male in the state with teeth numbering in the double digits.

Oh come on, that was the perfect resuscitation. Paramedics everywhere gave it two thumbs up.

@DEagle7 I think you had previously asked about boosters for Moderna recipients, looks like VRBPAC is meeting on the 14th to discuss boosters for Moderna and J&J, and then hearing a presentation from NIH on mix-and-match on the 15th. Meeting for Pfizer's pediatric EUA isn't until Oct 26.

Does this mean that approval for 5-11 year olds could come Oct 26 or within a few days thereafter if everything looks good with the data?

I can't even imagine how frustrating it must be. You probably get it from both sides when it comes to parents too, those like me who are tired of waiting, and then the nutbags who think you're killing babies at the behest of Soros.

Off-topic question: for administering vaccine doses, does someone in the office or pharmacy have to measure and draw the right amount out of the vial into the needle, or are the needles premeasured so that you just draw back from the vial until the plunger stops? Asking because I'm curious if new needles/vials will have to be distributed if this EUA for the 10ug dose gets approved, or if they can just use whatever they have on hand already and hit the ground running.

I'm actually not positive, we haven't been offering it in our office yet because of storage limitations.  I think they have to draw out the dose though.

Actually if the person who invented it went to school in WV it would have been called the toothsbrush.

Wow, first Sweden and now Finland. Should have consulted CVON first. 

Looks like they’re "doing their own research” by not doing any real research.

That's the most optimistic timeline. The advisory committee (VRBPAC) meets and votes, then the FDA meets and votes. After that, the CDC advisory committee (ACIP) meets and votes, followed by the CDC itself meeting and voting. In general, the FDA authorizes its use (e.g. yes, it's safe and effective), and the CDC provides guidelines on use (e.g. recommended only for kids in regions with high levels of community spread, no strenuous physical exercise for 7-days following vaccination, etc.) 

More realistically, using the timeline from how boosters were approved, if the Oct 26th meeting goes well, then the FDA would vote a few days later, followed by ACIP a day or two later, and the CDC the following day or so. So basically, we're into the first week of November would be my guess. The big caveat here is that this assumes a cultist like Cody Meissner doesn't sway the rest of the committee with his "kids arent even at risk from covid" horseshit.

How do you guys do it for other vaccines?

Some of them are pre-filled vials, some of them you draw up a set amount.

Damn. Ok so then I'm thinking if a pre-filled process is already in use for other vaccines, it's most likely the same with pfizer and moderna's. Which means this 10mcg dose for kids could require shipment of new vials/needles. If that's the case, my guess is that will push things out another 2-3 weeks or more and appointments will be super limited initially.

Thanks for that explanation. Makes sense and is generally consistent with prior timelines that put the best case scenario for approval around the end of October.

See my more recent post on vial dosing. That could push things into late November if that ends up being the case.

Anybody see this crazy story? A man murdered his brother, who was a pharmacist, his sister-in-law and another woman. Because is brother was administering COVID vaccines and he wanted to confront him about it.  

:wacko:

so not only did he take his own wife's name (probably to distance himself from his insane family) his brother (see below) killed him.  Makes sense based on the photo alone.  Poor guy never had a chance.  Whack job Trumpers.

Yup, I saw that and realize that distribution rollout may be delayed due to the size difference. Thanks again.
