Pause...

 



Injections of Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose coronavirus vaccine came to a sudden halt in much of the country on Tuesday after federal health agencies called for a pause in the vaccine’s use following the emergence of a rare blood clotting in six recipients.

All six were women between the ages of 18 and 48 and all developed the illness within one to three weeks of vaccination. One woman died and a second woman in Nebraska has been hospitalized in critical condition.

Nearly seven million people in the United States have received Johnson & Johnson shots so far.

Astra Zeneca has the same issue with clots.

Mutation...

 



Wonderful. Awesome. Fantastic. Those are the adjectives Emory University researcher Mehul Suthar used to describe the immunity levels seen just after the second dose of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine.

But Suthar and colleagues at Emory’s Vaccine Center found that stunning immunity dulled after six months but not to such an extent that the vaccine was ineffective. In fact, Suthar estimated that in three age groups studied – 18-to-55, 56-to-70 and 71-and-older – neutralizing antibodies should linger for one to two years.

“The 484 mutation has been identified by several groups, that it seems to escape antibody responses,” Suthar said. “Other groups are finding that mutations within what’s called the N-terminal domain of that spike protein also encode for escape antibodies.”

When...



The economic pressure on the city’s finances is stark: the Independent Budget Office suggested that the loss in tax revenue may be even worse than the city was predicting.
Because the city’s economy is densely interwoven, reviving it is likely to be a halting process.
Swiftly shutting down the city’s more than 25,000 restaurants and bars was one thing. But getting customers back may not be a matter of simply allowing them to reopen, even with servers in masks and gloves and diners ordering from an app on their phones.

“When are companies going to start hosting events at restaurants and bars again?”  “When are the tourists going to start coming back?”
That is a question that has been haunting Broadway and the rest of the city’s entertainment sector as well.

The Beef...

 




At this time I have more questions than answers about the current Covid-19 Vaccines.

First: The Food and Drug administration authorized the use of these vaccines under Emergency Use Only. In other words, it is not approved just for the use of every one. The benefits should outweigh the risk.  And there is risk here associated with the current practice.

Second: The duration of protection from these vaccines are not identified yet. Pfizer said it protects for more than 6 months.

Third: We don't even have enough information about the elderly who have been vaccinated. How effective the vaccines are, how many vaccinated, who contracted the disease, how many died, what problems are happening from the vaccines, and when would it be the after Six Month start of revaccination for the elderly?

Fourth: I see the marching drums from the politicians on a daily basis standing in front of the Camera and saying ...... I would like one of these Media outlet to end the conference with one reporter asking   "Where Is The Beef"  

We vaccinated millions, the best in the world...  Hurd Immunity, New variants, then Curve and Percent which appears to be a moving target. So far no tangible results to be measured?

Signs...

 


These are true signs. 

If you can't see it, better check with your doctor.  Just a thought.
