@JamesThrot Thank you for staying. As bad as it is, this seems to be one of the few spaces left where we can continue to discuss & learn from each other, (& commiserate!), especially the very few of us in the UK. Having you here, advocating as a health professional, is so very valuable.π
@nickelpin@WellBeforeHQ Thank you so much for replying! That is fab to know, will definitely search the mask out, & the tattoos, too! All goodness & health to you.β€οΈπ·
@nickelpin πππ Thank you so much always for making wearing a mask look so fierce!π₯π· I am sure it is in your feed somewhere, apologies for asking - the mask you are wearing looks so good & comfortable, which one is it? Thank you!β€οΈπ·
@Nucleocapsoid@ipattorneyliza@Mike_Honey_ Thank you, I was going to ask about the Moderna being stronger, if there was any value to it, grasping at straws a bit, but would take any small reassurance at this point! So good OR bad means what? And thanks again for your replies, this is all a lot to figure out!
@Nucleocapsoid@ipattorneyliza@Mike_Honey_ To clarify, would L.P.1.8 actually offer protection from GETTING sick with XFG, as well as protection from SERIOUS illness? I thought all vaccines were really for the later, but not much for the former. Am seriously considering doubling up, as soon as is advisable (2/3mths?).π
@Nucleocapsoid@ipattorneyliza@Mike_Honey_ Thank you so much for your reply, definitely planning on wearing my N95s all the time, except when I am under, which will be worrying time, but unavoidable. And I will definitely make a point of it. !! to the response you got from that nurseπ. What a state things are in.
@Nucleocapsoid@ipattorneyliza@Mike_Honey_ In anticipation of surgery this week, we got ours several weeks ago; they only had Moderna JN.1, urgh. Will there be any benefit to this? Had our last (also Mod JN.1) in Spring. Many thanks!π
@Daniel_E_Park How does the Moderna JN.1 compare? It was the only one available when we went a few weeks ago, trying to get in early as surgery is planned. Now worried it won't be very effective! Many thanks!π
@PiperTanya@SGriffin_Lab Moderna JN.1 was the only one available when we got ours privately in the UK a few weeks ago; looking at the charts, is it correct that it is the least effective for current strains? In Spring, having done some research, it seemed to be the best available then. Many thanks!π
Let me be clear. As someone who has been professionally involved with the biodefense / biosecurity sector for nearly 20 years, and has worked on biological risk analysis for Covid-19 since early 2020, reducing one's risk of being infected is not health anxiety. It's just smart.
A massive new peer-reviewed review (161 studies, 2+ million patients) makes it clear.
COVID-19 isnβt just a respiratory infection.
Itβs a multi-system disease leaving lasting scars on lungs, heart, brain, kidneys, and more.π§΅
