Rate of Americans getting booster shots is slowing down

Thu, 2022-01-06 08:29 — mike kraft

The Biden administration has largely responded to the near vertical rise in coronavirus cases by pushing for more people to get not only their initial doses of vaccine, but booster shots as well.

This week, federal health officials endorsed boosters for youths 12 to 17 who had initially gotten the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. The government also changed the definition of “up to date” Covid vaccination to include boosters.

Variant Diagnosis Has Doctors Struggling With Virus Treatment Decisions

Tue, 2022-01-04 17:32 — mike kraft
Variant Diagnosis Has Doctors Struggling With Virus Treatment Decisions Most U.S. doctors have no way to determine which variant of the coronavirus a patient is carrying, a distinction that could mean the difference between life and death. High-risk patients carrying the delta variant could benefit greatly from two particular monoclonal antibody treatments shown to reduce hospitalization and death. But those medications would most likely do nothing for patients with omicron, who would only respond to a third antibody treatment that is in very short supply.
