A novel, bivalent RSV vaccine provides lasting protection against respiratory syncytial viral disease over two rather than only one season. #RSV #bivalent #vaccine #renoir #pfizer #universityrochester

Which #booster did I even get back in June? 🤔 It seems like ages. I believe it was the #bivalent that came highly recommended. Or maybe it was the Novavax? Ugggh

“By mid-April, 2023, individuals previously vaccinated only with wild-type vaccines had little protection against #COVID19 including hospital admission. A #BNT162b2 BA.4/5 #bivalent #booster restored protection against a range of COVID-19 outcomes, including against #XBB-related sublineages, with the most substantial protection observed against #HospitalAdmission and #CriticalIllness.” thelancet.com/journals/lanres/ bird.makeup/users/19joho/statu

✅ neue 💪💉

Mussten extra schriftlich das Einverständnis geben, dass wir die trotz Empfehlung (Abstand 12 Mt.) möchten, da die letzte ( ) 6 Mt. her ist.

Es gibt mehr als genug Gründe inkl. med. Indikationen, die Auffrischung jetzt zu machen.

And before anybody calls me a conspiracy theorist & my fears as completely unfounded (remember they delayed approval for #Novavax in Fall of 2022 to be approved only AFTER everyone already got their #bivalent vaccines & then SEVERELY limited it to people who only ever had 2 shots so IF you were responsible & got a 3rd shot in 2021, you weren’t eligible) here’s a photo of what #BigPharma cozied up to #POTUS looks like

They all look super thrilled to be there too🙄

@ranil @hfentonmudd
Moderna is better than Pfizer b/c #Pfizer ripped off #Moderna tech which is why they had stroke issues w/ #bivalent

Prob is, most of society has such a horrible time w/#mRNA they won’t do it again from what they’ve told me & nobody understands why Novavax is different

#novavax 🔩up BIG b/c they could have been first out but ex-CEO was greedy & awful

This chart is what convinced me to lie my butt off to procure 4 b/c priming is important

Tbh I’d like 2 of the new booster too… 6 months apart & then an annual one but they might go out of business

Problem is, we have a couple new variants these boosters will definitely not cover & we’re sure to get new ones soon

That new Northeastern study validated my hypothesis that everyone who exhibits no caution/flimsy caution is basically asymptomatically spreading 24/7 but only falls ill again when they catch a variant different than what they’ve had before

Some kind of “catch all the Pokémon” game?

What I will say is MatrixM does absolutely boost your #immunesystem

I get colds pretty darn easily & have noticed it does help me fight things off. It does wane too, just over longer time; perhaps 11 months vs. weeks-3 months. Also zero side effects vs mRNA which is primarily the reason vaccine uptake is so dismal..

I wish more people knew the difference between protein vax & mRNA

Personally will never take mRNA again, but decided that long ago in late 2021 after getting Covid 4 months to the day after my 2nd Pfizer

And herein lies the dirty little secret… We all know that the #COVID19 #vaccines aren’t intended to protect vs infection. The rub: last year’s #bivalent vax provided addt’l protection vs hosp/critical illness for only ~2 mos, before effectiveness waned. Frustrating, to say the least.

However, recall that the vaccines have been shown to reduce the chances of developing #LongCovid (varies btwn 15-40%.) So, might want to factor this into your decision-mkg.

Good discussion 1/2

[Pre-print] Faraone et al, 2023: Serum from people who received BA.4/5 #bivalent vaccines, many of whom had recent #COVID19 infections, still showed a 10x drop in neutralization for EG.5.1 (vs. BA.4/5). EG.5.1 is antigenically distant from XBB.

the bizarrest thing just happened. NJ health dept called my spouse with advice on getting the #bivalent booster even tho they have him in record for getting 2 #Novavax
He’s such a goody-2-shoes he gave them his real☎️📞🤦🏻‍♀️

Firstly, new updated boosters are coming out in 2-3 weeks plus the bivalent is useless AND he clearly prefers Novavax

This is a #DIY pandemic which is tbh… f%£ing frightening

The stuff I’m reading in Covid Cautious NYC FB is often 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️& i dare not say anything b/c #noGoodDeed

“There was a small but significant increase in peak neutralizing antibody responses against #Omicron #BA5 and #XBB15 following the first #bivalent #booster, but no significant increase in peak titers following the second bivalent booster. Omicron-specific #neutralizing titers remained low after both doses of the BA.5 bivalent booster.” mstdn.social/@erictopol/110894

@Njord
I’m so glad you made that decision💜💜💛Many people won’t do it & can understand their point of view as I had real angst about it last year, but it angered me PH held back #Novavax until everyone got #Moderna #Pfizer #bivalent #boosters

The calendar on approval doesn’t lie. Made me super mad, however worked out for me as decided then & there I needed primary doses++

wasn’t going to get #SARS2 for innocuously taking out trash & it has tbh, FAR exceeded my expectations

@RedFaster Very nice, Sergei, you must think that you have now adroitly managed to twist my twisting of your words, that tried to twist my original post, to suit your disinformation agenda. I do remember blocking you, Sergei, the first time round, but you've just jumped servers, to take another kick at the can, which I am now calling you out for, publicly. See how that works? Get your shingles shot(s) Sergei! Oh, and your #COVID #bivalent booster. #VaccinesWork #GetVaccinated

Bad case of Covid-Arm tonight having gotten the #Moderna #bivalent #Booster.
