In my new article in @AreoMagazine I discuss why the CDC’s guidance changes for masks & testing were wrong.
Vaccines are important but we can’t put all our eggs in one basket. Additional approaches will be vital to defeat #COVID19 & the #DeltaVariant

Whatever 🙄
Manipulative brainwashing to scare people back to in office work
You better waste a bunch of time commuting & diminish your quality of life or else
As if people’s posture & computer usage is any better in the office than it is working at home
Don’t buy this 🐴💩
Link to data presented by CDC at yesterday’s FDA VRBPAC committee meeting
Discussion begins around 51:56
XBB data is at the bottom of the slide shown

As I’ve said repeatedly, 💉efficacy is abysmal versus XBB
CDC data presented today (6/15) shows NEGATIVE efficacy for HOSPITALIZATION for both primary series & boosted >90 days
Boosted <90 days show 29% relative efficacy which is only 5% actual risk reduction (41% vs 36%)
Side note: I believe the reported 29% relative efficacy figure is incorrect given the absolute reduction of 5%
41% vs 36% represents 12.2% relative efficacy given that 5% is 12.2% of 41%
29% relative efficacy would require an 11.9% absolute risk reduction - not 5%
@RAKlotsky It was presented by the CDC yesterday in the FDA meeting
Here’s the link to the meeting
Data I shared for XBB is at the bottom of the slide
Discussion of this data begins around 51:56

@LongCovidComms @ThreeQueensDown Tell that to the CDC who presented this data at the FDA VRBPAC meeting yesterday
Discussion begins at 51:56
XBB data I shared is at the bottom of the slide

@rnussbaum11 I don’t have an article link yet but here is the CDC presentation to the FDA of this data
The XBB data is at the bottom of this slide

@ThreeQueensDown @p0usr Yes - it is a screen grab from the CDC presentation during the FDA meeting
The relevant data is presented at about 52 minutes in
XBB portion from my screenshot is at the bottom of the slide

@Incindery1@james1chas3 🤣
Now I see… being pro-vax is being glad that vaxxed are now more likely than the unvaxxed to get infected & hospitalized with XBB
Of course! How could I have overlooked this
I do not understand good-mouthing this & saying it’s a step in the right direction 🙄
It’s repeating something that failed abysmally due to the pace of mutations
Prior update was already a mismatch upon release
Insanity: repeating a failure & expecting a different result 🤦🏼♀️
And by the time the 💉formula is ready, we'll have moved past the current variants included in the update & they won't be effective... again
Honestly, NPIs are the only infection protection path until they have a formula that provides broad sterilizing immunity for any variant
Fantastic quote from @arijitchakrav
⬇️
Those pushing notion that repeated reinfection is helpful are attempting to “polish the turd”

@_EarnieBanks No - the DeSantis strategy is failing miserably & will not work ⬇️
Recent poll (post-indictment announcement) shows Trump ahead of DeSantis by 40 points❗️
Trump will be the R nominee & could very well win another term given Biden’s also abysmal approval ratings
"[A]ccording to new reports this week three separate Chinese government officials have all named scientist Ben Hu, who was in charge of gain of function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, as the first human to be infected with the new disease."

Prime example: Efforts to push 💉uptake were not honest
April 2021 story touted only a 0.008% breakthrough rate (link in reply)
When I noted this was inaccurate per research noting vaxxed in trials had persistent virus in swabs, I was attacked & told I was doing a “bad thing”😡
@jasonorton420 Yes and…
🔸At stage 1, “data” given was largely propaganda/disinformation
🔸At stage 2, the expectation was “do what we say even if it’s not entirely accurate”
🔸At stage 3, they wanted to hide their abysmal failure
🔸At stage 4, put your life on the line to boost the economy 🤑
🤔💭 Imagine someone gives you $1 million but you are required to bet all of it on who will be the two major party Presidential nominees
If you win, you get the million plus your gains from the wager
How would you bet your million❓
