Read some stuff about Pfizer's and Moderna's COVID-19 vaccines. Here are the takeaways:
1. Both vaccines require 2 shots spaced 2-3 weeks apart.
2. One shot -- gives 2-3 months of immunity. Two shots -- gives about 1 year of immunity.
3. So yes, it's a yearly vaccine.

4. Both vaccines have 90% efficacy and has been labeled "safe" by all stages of the clinical trial.
5. Both vaccines produce heavy flu-like symptoms that last about 1-2 days after each shot.
This is our life now. I'm super scared tho of the price. Imported na nga, 2x yearly pa.

If u want a perspective regarding "90% efficacy", condoms have a 98% efficacy in preventing unwanted pregnancies & STDs.
I say it's pretty efficacious. I think ang challenge lang is (1) price & (2) availability given that d whole world needs it. May bagong billionaires na naman.

Gusto ko lang din i-add na ang sabi, both vaccines WILL produce flu-like symptoms that will last for 1-2 days after each shot.
This part of the vaccination process could not only be weaponized but also demonized by anti-vaxxers to strengthen the already strong anti-vaccine

The Philippines has seen a re-emergence of Polio post-dengvaxia farce. Polio! A supposedly dead disease! So always be vigilant. Magbasa. Check sources. Call out fake news!

Sabi nga ni VP Leni, hindi bastos ang mag-call out as long as hindi ka mag-stoop down sa level nila. But let's remember that fake news is basically a lie--kasinungalingan.
When lies are told over and over again, people will think na "ah totoo pala ito".

Paano? Kasi puro fake news na lang ang nababasa. So wala ng nabasang tama. Ang tendency ng tao ay paniwalaan kung ano ang nakikita niya.
VP Leni: "...Pero yung kasinungalingan at fake news, ico-call out kita kahit sino ka."

Nabasa ko as a quote tweet sa aking COVID-19 vaccine thread.
OMG. I apologize, may mga nagtanong kasi about some stuff and kung ano lang yung pumasok sa utak ko (AKA the jargons and terms), yun na yung tinype ko.
I didn't really think na marami palang magre-retweet.

My twitter is basically my diary so kung pano talaga ako magsalita, yun na yon. So I wasn't able to edit myself.
I take inspiration in Dr. Fauci's words on science communication in times of crises and misinformation: The goal is not to sound smart, the goal is to be understood.

Jargons, technical words, complicated grammar, & high-falutin English are all barriers to understanding.

So the next time I tweet something important like this with the potential of getting a lot of retweets, I promise to use plain and basic language to the best my abilities.
