Don’t Forget The Pneumonia and RSV Vaccines: The CDC and the FDA are now recommending both of these vaccines for everyone. Don't land yourself in the hospital. #pneumococcus #rsv #pneumonia #influenza #CoVid #vaccine

From 2023 but just came across my timeline: Several #vaccines associated with reduced risk of #Alzheimer’s disease in adults 65 and older - uth.edu/news/story/several-vac “Prior vaccination against #tetanus and #diphtheria, with or without #pertussis (Tdap/Td); herpes #zoster (HZ), better known as #shingles; and #pneumococcus are all associated with a reduced risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease”

We published a paper :). We looked at the consequences of switching the from the 13 valent #pneumococcus vaccine back to 10 valent vaccine in New Zealand. It was a bad idea. Glad NZ has switched back to PCV13, but would be better if there was also a catch up programme for kids that missed out on PCV13 as an infant. I did very little of this work just a bit of sequencing and limited genome analysis. Andy did all the hard work. sciencedirect.com/science/arti

My brother's girlfriend started feeling sick (sore throat and cough) on Thursday & went to get
#PCR tested for #Covid.

At the clinic, they did a panel of tests for a barrage of respiratory bugs and found a coinfection of #rhinovirus and #StreptococcusPneumoniae, also known as #Pneumococcus.

In #Chicago. In August.
