With new analyses showing lower severity for Omicron cases, what will this mean for our projections? Well obviously this will tend to bring the numbers lower, which is great — but I want to clear up a few misconceptions.

[Srobana Ghosh @srobanaghosh]

The question of who to prioritise to receive the #CovidVaccine is a complex issue. We conducted a systematic review of economic models that assess the key groups to target and reported findings for when that prioritization can change.

@AkindeCassandra Congrats to you, too!

Surveys using antibody tests suggest that fewer people may have already been infected with SARS-CoV-2 than was previously thought. But the presence or absence of antibodies is far from the full story. Here’s why: https://t.co/CGUUyZ92o7

[Dr. Angela Rasmussen @angie_rasmussen]

An EXCELLENT thread by Dr. Krammer that breaks down some really complex immunology really clearly and sheds some light on the whole "decaying antibodies" discussion that's currently going around.

"For every one excess #COVID19 death attributable to SARS-CoV-2 infections acquired during routine vaccination clinic visits, 84 deaths in children could be prevented" through routine immunization. Key findings from @LancetGH's benefit–risk analysis: https://t.co/vsdGqds4SX
