Rather than age, I thought the side effects correlated with previous immunization? I thought DPT was still given if a patient was vaccine-naive.
Pneumonia immunization in adults is the only example that’s coming to mind of a followon vaccine with a different conjugate: PCV13 is followed with PPSV23.
Followed in January by Fox news report “Liberal elites laughed off Real Americans(r) concerns that vaccines were dangerous. Now we see the result.”

Betcha quite a few of those “pussies” were dicks, too.
Pussy’s.
not until after the election anyway
BREAKING: all the people killed by the sickness were sick first
Prevnar (PCV13) is a totally different vaccine from Pneumovax. Prevnar is aimed at the serotypes associated with pneumococcal meningitis. While there is a measurable effect on pneumococcal pneumonia, it is minor, and due to immunological crossreactivity. The effect on meningitis is huge. Pneumovax (PPSV23) is specifically aimed at the serotypes responsible for pneumonia. Little crossover between the two.
And the TDaP/DTap divide is entirely age based. DTaP is given up to 7yo. TDaP from 10 on. That gap is a problem, as there is no approved tetanus vaccine for 8 & 9 year olds. It’s bullshit, of course, but it is what we have.
I guess Carolla thinks he’s a pussy too
That sucks.
Death toll in Washington and Oregon together
This would have crushed my dad.
" It’s “the worst thing you can do,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci."
“Please isolate at your college,” Birx said at a news conference. “Do not return home if you’re positive and spread the virus to your family, your aunts, your uncles, your grandparents.”
Response of colleges (including JMU, our local university)? “Get out” Go home, that way you are not our responsibility. not our problem. Of course, if you had not insisted that they come back in the first place, this would not be an issue. But…
" This week, James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia, became one of the latest schools to go virtual. President Jonathan Alger announced on Tuesday that learning will be primarily online through at least the end of the month due to a “rapid increase in the number of positive cases.” Since classes started on Aug. 24, JMU has had more than 600 confirmed cases, with a positivity rate of almost 17%, according to data on the school’s website. The school will consider a potential return to in-person learning as early as Oct. 5, later this month.
Students were asked to return home by Sept. 7, “in an effort to reduce the number of people on campus,” Alger said. Caitlyn Read, a university spokesperson, told ABC News the university is not sending students home who have COVID-19 and are in isolation, or those who have been in contact with a confirmed case and are quarantining, until they finish their prescribed time."
If I phrase it differently, it works for me:
CDC official 1: “How the heck are we going to get everyone to be able to distribute a vaccine? We can’t even get everyone to get their shit together to get testing rolled out!”
CDC official 2: “Well, it’s gonna be months to have a vaccine, so we have plenty of time…”
CDC official 1: “Ah, I see what your playing at.” [Writes memo, mumbling]
“Let’s see how to phrase ‘Get your fuck together, NOW, immediately!’ differently…”
ETA: the 'let us lean on the CDC so Trump gets reelected" of course works as well.
…shit. Poor soul.
Lyme disease is a bugger. @all: anyone ever seen other info on Lyme disease + Covid-19? Research papers especially welxome. Asking out of personal concern, I had a severe case last year which is still affecting me.
I only very slightly understand this in terms of “It shows that we are lighting up the right subsystem.” Is there an explanation you can offer that a moderately knowledgeable layperson might hope to parse?
That would definitely kill the mood. Especially on my wife!
ETA: In fairness, on me it would potentially not be noticed…
Phrasing?
Halloween is cumming!
