    I tried reporting that my partner and I had Covid last spring, and could find no way to do so. I left a msg w/my local health dept. in Oregon. We have it again, and I will try again, but I doubt anything's being recorded. I'm doing my part, but local agencies are not interested, and in my experience, have not been for some time.

    One of the reason the FDA selected the JN.1 subtype to be the target for the vaccine to be deployed in the Autumn/Fall, was because NOVAVAX could not be switched to the KN.2/KN.3 subtype in the required timescale. This suggests that the FDA should have decided which subtype to use at least a month ago.
    The US tends to vaccinate against Flu and COVID-19 from the end of October. In the UK we start to vaccinate at the beginning of September. In recent years this has meant that orders were delivered too late and we have had to use earlier versions of the vaccines.
    Autumn 2022 planned bivalent BA.4/BA.5 + original received bivalent BA.1/BA.2
    Autumn 2023 planned monovalent XBB.1.1 (prefilled single dose AD syringe)
    received bivalent BA.4/BA.5
    Spring 2023 planned bivalent BA.4/BA.5 + original received as planned
    Spring 2024 planned monovalent XBB.1.1 received as planned
    Hence those 65 to 74 did not receive the intended protection.

    • @JillKnapp
      @JillKnapp 7 місяців тому

      Dunno if you heard yet, but the FDA just updated their recommendation, and are now suggesting vaccines go with KP.2 (though they acknowledge Novavax will still be JN.1).
      I get everything else you're saying, of course. This game of whack-a-mole isn't sustainable -- the virus is always going to outpace us.

      I didn't get any covid vaccine myself but one thing I do know it's that vaccines do work. My dog was vaccinated against Parvo and when I had a stray dog with Parvo in my house for 15 days, my dog didn't get symptoms. I had that stray dog treated for 5 or 6 days then kept him in my house for recovery. There is no way my dog didn't get Parvo. The only think that helped is the vaccine he got.
