I think the extra week you had to wait for Moderna also plays a role.

 

In that case, it's less an issue for brand, and more for timing. I waited around 60 days for mine between doses, and I know that studies indicated that it could provide a positive effect. Most people in Canada had about 2-3 months between doses, with the shortest gap being 28 days.

There is no effective difference. All the studies we are seeing are from different area of the world with different demographics in different stages of the pandemic. This is why data from Canada and the UK (for Pfizer) put the efficacy at 80-90%, but Israel's showed 65%. This is something that is impossible to study in a perfectly measured and balanced way. The important thing is the trend for both, and that is that both Pfizer and Moderna provide very good protection against infection, and both provide amazing protection against severe illness.

 

One thing to note is our data on Moderna is vastly limited compared to Pfizer.  We've just been assuming all the way that whatever Pfizer's findings reveal will hold true for Moderna as well.  Canada, a month or two back did find Moderna to be slightly more robust in regards to protecting and these findings do align with that.  It's early, but it's encouraging to see some more hard data on a vaccine that hasn't had as widespread of adoption as Pfizer.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WZTV) — Doctors at a Tennessee hospital are speaking out after two children died from COVID-19 over the weekend. Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital said two children died from complications of the virus. Since the start of the pandemic, six young people have died at the Memphis hospital. “The sickness, the illness we are seeing, is considerably more severe over the last couple of weeks than we’ve seen previously,”Dr.

 

Kids are so ***k, it's sad.

British Columbia continues to lead Canada in new daily cases, with 402 more reported on Thursday, while active cases rose 302 to 2,066.

That’s the most cases since May 21 — during the waning part of the third wave of COVID-19 in B.C. —  and the most active cases since early June, at the start of B.C.’s fourth wave of infection.

As the Canadian media continues to focus on Alberta, with CBC leading the narrative that it's only right wing governments like Alberta that can't keep Covid under control.

According to the latest Government of Canada data, B.C. has had more cases over the past seven days than any other province or territory. However, deaths are not mounting. There have been no deaths reported in B.C. since Tuesday and the death rate has not increased as the fourth wave has begun.

That's because vaccines work.

It's time, in Canada at least, for the media to stop focusing on case counts, but on Hospitalizations and Deaths.

United employees must be vaccinated five weeks after the FDA fully approves a Covid vaccine or five weeks after Sept. 20, whichever is first.

United Airlines will require its 67,000 U.S. employees to get vaccinated against Covid by no later than Oct. 25 or risk termination, a first for major U.S. carriers that will likely ramp up pressure on rivals.

Vaccine skeptics and anti-maskers are instead sucking down horse paste — the latest snake-oil "miracle cure" — once they become sick with COVID-19, resulting in an increase in calls to poison control centers, the Daily Beast reported Friday. The horse paste contains ivermectin, which is normally use...

 

Somehow this took off in Canada before the US (I posted about it a few weeks ago), but it's being eaten up (literally) by the MAGA base.
