Suspend AstraZeneca use for people under 55, vaccine committee recommends
I know lots of people 55 and under that already got the first dose. Wonder what that happens to their second shot timeline.
That’s a good question. I work with a lady who had her 1st dose...was not going to get second dose until June or July....maybe they’ll have it sorted out soon...
I don't think you have to get the same shot for the second dose.

Currently it's the recommendation that you get the same shot for both, due to lack of data on a mix and match strategy. There are trials underway right now on this.

Great new in NY. Anyone over 30 is eligible starting next week!!
given density of the 5 boroughs, how is the state handling injection locations?
My 3 Uncles and father easily received shots over the past month. A lot of my customers at the store have received theirs as well. Haven’t heard much complaining honestly.

This is really discouraging. BC was just in the process of rolling out vaccinations for teachers and front line workers with the AZ vaccine and now this. We (the province) are also increasing our restrictions as of today due to an increase in cases. Every time it seems like there is an end in sight, something blows up again.
I don't personally think that a risk of about 1 in 1,000,000 is high enough to suspend the vaccinations but it's looking more and more like we're swimming against the tide of public opinion on this vaccine. I wonder if the wealthier countries are going to decide to just cut this one out. That might be to the gain of the developing nations, so that would be something at least.

^^ Is it OK for 55+ because benefits outweigh risk?
I like how you look on the bright side!
I haven't been on the same endemic page. I am awaiting the 3rd variant wave. I'm glad it didn't hit here during spring break and took advatage of safer opportunities for recreation. I'm also glad my ski hill voluntarily refusesd reservations from people more than 100 clicks away, so we're not shut down due to tourism.
Edit: Sorry to hear that McG. My kids' school still had no reports and with a new mask wearing mandate for Gr. 4-12 required in schools that will lower the odds a bit.

With the science (or scientific interpretation) constantly changing. I'm not long sure if AZ is a problem? At first it sounded like they couldn't differentiate between whether the virus cause the clots, or if that many random people in any given population size would have them anyways. I guess the science changed?
With cases spiking up here in BC, what's the costs of not using them? I think the US was sending Canada something like 1.5m doses. Moderna delayed some shipments again. Without other vaccines it's going to take a lot longer to vaccinate our population.. shrug.
I can say that now in the UK the numbers are showing the benefits of what we did in December. Our full population is around 60mil We have one dosed over 30 mil so more than half adults . With kids included in the 60mil(that don't get one) thats a lot of people and the numbers suggest it's had a dramatic effect on hospitals. Now under 5% beds are covid in hospitals. AZ vaccine has made that possible. People were dying all over ,now even with the most contagious variant numbers dropped off the cliff. On another note I was involved in a survey from the start of pandemic ONS study that tested us weekly then monthly and bloods also . They actually paid us in vouchers which made presents Xmas possible for our kids because we are quite short on money. Well they are coming again today as they now want to monitor vaccinated people. Swab and bloods 9.am so they are checking our immune response 6 weeks after AZ . Now this kind of science excites me. I hope we get the information on our immune response that would be interesting

If someone offered me the AZ vaccine I'd take it.
I'm with you. If they offered it I would take it.
I think we're making a big mistake up here in Canada. This back and forth on AZ is going to cost people their lives.

This is true there is no more risk than a paracetamol and this is costing lives and harming 1000s. No confidence is so sad. This is the non profit vaccine remember that

Well if 4 in 100,000 (middle aged women, mostly) get Vaccine-Induced Prothrombotic Immune Thrombocytopenia (VIPIT), with 40% fatality, how does this compare with Covid-19 complications?
We have had 11 (7 this year) deaths in BC in that age group. Total COVID-19 in BC almost 40,000. Percent of those in that age group X (as below).
Anyone wonder why this info isn't easy for the average Tishy to understand, and-or can solve this math?

Clots yeah. I haven't seen anything about 480 deaths from this post vaccine
I'm just doing the math on 30 million doses. Is that the amount of doses of AZ that has been administered?
Busy busy day for me so I haven’t been able to read into this further. The last time I read any data on this was two days ago though it seems like weeks now. At that point I believe there were 30 identified cases.
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf
Did a second self-test just now, because I had in my stressful easter-fever booked one to be delived to my door but then I couldn't cancel it when I instead could pick one up at my local clinic...
... weird that the instructions were a bit different for the two tests. One you were to swab far inside one of your nostrils (scary), the other you had to swab both of them.
DID YOU SWAB ONE OR TWO NOSTRILS JAMILY?

So for 30 million doses, I come up with 480 deaths.
