Popular Post snoop1130 Posted January 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2022 BANGKOK (NNT) - According to Dr. Yong Poovorawan, head of the Center of Excellence in Clinical Virology at the Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University, said people who received two shots of Sinovac followed by a booster shot of AstraZeneca have seen their immunity increase 100 times, or 200 times if followed by a Pfizer booster shot. He said both booster shots can significantly increase T cells, which is effective against Covid-19 variants such as Omicron. He cited data from researchers in Europe and China, on the medRxiv website, studying the effects of 2 Sinovac shots followed by an mRNA booster shot. Meanwhile, he said Chulalongkorn University will publish its own research on combating Omicron in Thailand next week and the results of the study of 2 doses of Sinovac and/or AstraZeneca followed by a booster shot will be published soon. -- © Copyright NNT 2022-01-17 - Aetna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

catturd Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Dr. Yong's comments may be accurate, but the problem is the protection levels afforded by the increased antibodies may be insufficient against omicron as reported recently by a small study in Israel and comments from pfizer & moderna CEO's and BioNTech. An omicron specific solution is in the works with both moderna & pfizer now with production ETA March 2022. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/12/08/omicron-pfizer-ceo-says-we-may-need-fourth-covid-vaccine-doses-sooner-than-expected.html https://www.euronews.com/next/2021/12/20/omicron-3-vaccine-doses-are-not-enough-to-stop-the-new-covid-variant-warns-biontech-ceo The UK-HSA published some results of VE data for pfizer and Moderna boosters: pfizer drops to 40% after 10 weeks. Biggest drop is a negative VE 20 weeks after two dose AstraZeneca series. Moderna booster (2 dose mRNA) performed much better. I know some Thai individuals who have purchased several lots of moderna jabs, perhaps they can be used as boosters in TH.

There is a concerted effort on this board by the anti vaxers to incorrectly conflate protection against infection and transmission with protection against serious illness. The failure to draw this distinction is tantamount to a wilful attempt to do so. From one of the articles you quoted - "The latest research from South Africa, where Omicron was first reported, suggested that two doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine offered 70 per cent effectiveness in reducing the risk of hospitalisation." 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyF Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I had my Pfizer booster 2 weeks ago. Since then I've had flu type symptoms for 2 days followed by a sharp intermittent pulsating pain that moved from the injection site to my shoulder blade and is currently at the middle of my back. Think I'd rather have had Covid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldenbrwn1 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Watching Thai news this morning, it looks like Pfizer is the new bogeyman vaccine…Since the old lady that sadly passed it looks like Sinovac is the new golden boy and the government was right all along to stick with the CCP vaccine . Plenty of old lady’s (eating) with thumbs up because they didn’t drop dead from Sinovac on screen . ???? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
