    "According to the Yankees, all of the infected team members had been inoculated with the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which was found to be 72 percent effective at preventing moderate to severe covid-19 and 74 percent effective at preventing asymptomatic infection." — The Washington Post

    So I think we're going to have to start seeing a public differentiation between the results of the J&J vaccine and the results of the other two.

    Gleyber Torres did the Johnson & Johnson one, as did the rest of the Yankees. I'm guessing this is because the athletes weren't particularly worried about COVID, with almost all of them being under 35 and in great shape.

    So yes, if the J&J vaccine only gives you 74% protection against asymtomatic infection, and 72% against moderate-to-severe COVID, then you still have a decent chance of getting COVID on it.

    As I said before on radio, the J&J vaccine isn't bad if you are young and don't want to hassle with the double-dose thing, but if you're over 40, you should definitely go for Pfizer/Moderna.

    I wonder which one Bill Maher had. I could see him also doing Johnson & Johnson, believing he's too busy to bother with a double-dose vaccine.

    I had a choice which one I wanted, and there was no question I wanted Pfizer. Took longer, and required two trips, but I'm very happy that's the one I chose.

    Yeah, you posted a good video showing how effective all three were according to clinical trials when it comes to death,but it sure seems Pfizer and Moderna are superior now just looking at results with half the country vaccinated. None of these notable people have gotten particularly sick, but when you add in more serious side effects also, just not worth it if you have access to the others.

    I took the Pfizer one, but would have happy taken the J&J. While it isn’t as effective in preventing infection, it is 100% effective in preventing death and very few people got really sick.

    so basically like having a normal immune system response to the virus??

    oh yeah but you are old and fat, so probably a good decision to take the vaccine in your position

    Everybody should take off their masks. Our goal should be to infect team retard ASAP to build up herd immunity. The rest of us are vaxxed, if they want to believe FOX News over science, more power to them.

    nice to see this site going full anti-vax right wing shithole in a thread about an actual ongoing rapidly evolving plague.

    ^ top biologists are begging for some sort of safe space to just have an earnest honest conversation about whether or not covid came from a lab and the odds of that being allowed are :zero because, obviously, the right wing populists would have us in a hot nuclear exchange with china in about 15 minutes if they determined it did.

    That’s the step towards herd immunity. I don’t care if the dirty unhygienic anti vax crowd dies or simply don’t get others sick. Honestly, you’re so irrelevant, no one cares if you live or die as long as you don’t spread it to people of relevance.

    I found the Chinese scientist’s retort amusing.

    “The hypothesis of a lab leaking is just based on the expertise of a lab which has long been working on bat coronaviruses which are phylogenetically related to SARS-CoV-2”

    I mean that’s not proof, but she stated it like the idea that it is suspicious where it occurred and their field of research is crazy, instead of its crazy bad luck if it isn’t.

    That statement is so silly it’s like some senior party official wrote it and made her sign it. She can’t really perform science at a high level, and not grasp why it’s curious we haven’t found the leap from animal to human and happened to notice where it first appeared and what they did there.

    I don’t do coke anymore, but should I choose to tonight and die it doesn’t matter. I’m also irrelevant. I’m not changing the world or creating the cure for cancer over here. Being anti-vax is just so stupid on every level that no one of any actual importance would ever hold such nonsensical beliefs. Having the ability to critically think and being anti-vax are entirely incompatible. No one of any relevance, doing something that matters, would ever be anti-vax. It’s really that simple.

    someday there will be an actual DSM defined personality disorder in the books which describes the pathos of people talking to team retard cheerleaders like team retard are good faith members of the conversation.

    The asymmetry that currently exists where China can and does act with impunity to make the world a worse place for everyone for its own short-term benefit, and it is incumbent on the rest of the world to make giant concessions to not makes things worse, is problematic at best.

    Also, at this point all right wing populists already assume Covid came from a lab, so I am not sure how much they would want to ratchet up the tension if proof came out this was true; but maybe you are right.

    its a comfortable place for them because the sheer volume of deliberate subterfuge and disinformation somehow magically insulates themselves from the accusations that they are hereditary simpletons with the critical thinking skills of lamprey eels.

    'i cant possibly be stupid, there are a hundred thousand posts a day in this reddit that somehow perfectly appeals to my victim complex and my distrust of science faggots. so YOURE the stupid one' etc etc.

    but once you start stacking up evidence that this can all be pinned at the feet of a handful of chinese post grads trying not to piss off their bosses and get their organs harvested, suddenly youll have a new crop of 'republican leadership' who got elected on the platform that biblical vengeance is the only true American option at this point and from there its a very short historical jog to president greene hitting the launch button.
