I’ve been wondering how Israel has procured such high vaccine quantities. In Ireland, with adequate supply we can vaccinate quickly. Our 2020 flu vaccination program proves that, with well over

The UK govt has only three strategies with Covid. Herd immunity/live with it, lockdown for total elimination, or lockdown until a vaccine is found.1/9 But the last is just suicidal

People seem really confused about this impeachment vs last one. There is almost nothing similar which is why there is significant differences in the House Managers.Comparing them is not accurate.A

So the @Novavax results showing 90% vs. 49% efficacy make the results of the @JNJNews results even more exciting. JNJ is evaluating their Ad26 vaccine in S Africa as

I was first drawn into this mess when I met up by chance with a senior manager in NHS England. He’d noticed that, despite ITU beds emptying out late spring

1/ There are various tweets misinterpreting COVID-19 “pre-existing immunity” and making dangerous claims about herd immunity. Since many of those claims refer to our scientific papers, we will reiterate the

With all due respect, you as an epidemiologist should be quite ashamed for pushing such fear-mongering tweets and circulating this highly misleading study. You are relying on the fact that

1. Something odd I've noticed about surviving Covid is that my brain finds a way to discount all the good news about immunity. In my gut I expect to get

Sweden’s pro-herd govt official Tegnk was DEAD wrong. With deadly consequences. He predicted Sweden’s spring wave would prevent 2nd #COVID19 fall/winter wave. He was ‘Scott Atlas-wrong’. “Herd immunity” arrogance
