    I have to admit I would not pass up that plum job & pension at the end of it.

    Looks like we'll get the mix acknowlegement soon, Moderna has the best response so I'll go with them J&J for making a 2 shot a 1 shot so they could charge more
    I don't think that's true. The 1 dose is still around 80% effective in preventing moderate illness and produces a good memory B and T cell response. The study you linked to that showed the drop to only 3% effectiveness is measuring effectiveness against preventing infection. Ultimately all the vaccines will have basically 0% effectiveness against preventing infection because vaccines don't prevent infection. So I don't think J&J had any nefarious motives. Actually weren't they one of the ones who were selling it at cost?

    The reason I'm not going to stick with J&J is because they killed the vaccine with the big pause. So going forward we'll always be the bas step child that nobody outside of J&J will spend money studying.

    The reason I will get a booster at all is because of future variants. Shane Crotty's work showed that with each exposure to the e (virus or vaccine) your immune system is predicting how the virus might mutate and building a library of antibodies against future mutations. Pretty amazing that our immune systems have learned that viruses mutate. I'm almost 100% sure I've had a Delta "boost" not too long ago so maybe in a month or so I'll go get a vaccine boost as well. I'm in no rush so I'll wait until there have been enough guinea pigs to trigger any safety signals if there are any, doesn't look like it atm. I think it'll be the moderna.

    Any reason you'd prefer Moderna over Pfizer?

    In terms of the actual vaccine, no. I don't think there will be much difference in a 30 microgram or 50 microgram booster. The differences in the increase in "circulating antibodies" are meaningless. Just that I think Moderna has been the best company so far in terms of dosing, spacing, and not spreading bs to pump share price like the Pfizer ceo has done. Since this will be a long term thing I think Moderna is the train I'll get on.

    COVID was the leading cause of death for 30s-50s last month and the second leading cause of death overall in the USA.
    Not sure the Irish Times gives a .

    I've moved on too, just living my life. The difference is that you are young right? So you have plenty of time to build naturally acquired immune memory. I have about 10 years to gain 50 years of immune memory to this virus before I'm in a high risk age group. So I'll take the virus boosts and the vaccine boosts (after more guinea pigs go 1st).

    "moving on" = talking nonstop about vaccines you claim you won't take and have judged most others shouldn't take

    Not unreasonable. My view is that I'd like my body to see this virus ( e) as many times as possible over the next 10 years. It's going to take obviously at least 3-5 years to fully burn through the population once and then it's transmission rate will slow down and probably just be a seasonal respiratory virus. So that means I may only get a natural booster one or two more times before I'm 65+. So to me it makes sense to get some vaccine boosts along the way.

    I think I've already been exposed multiple times. Since I caught the OG strain last year and had two Pfizers, I don't think I'm susceptible anymore. Who knows.
