Was Israel ahead of the U.S. in vaccinations? I thought the U.K. was first before us. Me and my family were vaccinated in March/April.
Israel, the UK and the US all started effectively at the same time. Within a couple of weeks of one another. The UK is also planning on a 3rd dose for the fully vaccinated over 50.
The UK is to start a trial on 3rd doses in all approved vaccinations. It will be for a small selected group of individuals. Not a full scale roll out.
Pfizer will meet with U.S. health officials as soon as Monday to discuss the possibility of boosters. Pfizer says boosters need to be administered within 6-12 months of the initial two-shot regimen to fight against the variants, Dr. Anthony Fauci disagrees saying the two-shot regimen is sufficient and that boosters are not needed now.You are not allowed to view links.

Yeah, this feels like "Pfizer trying to stay ahead of the curve," and especially with the older population with lower immunity systems anyway, this doesn't seem like a bad thing. Like, I think at this moment with the data we have, BOTH of the sides are right
Many experts interviewed by The New York Times agree the current Covid-19 vaccines are effective against the Delta variant and that some have felt it was irresponsible for Pfizer to insist that booster shots are needed saying they have caused people to have unnecessary serious doubts about the shots they got.Speaking for myself, I know that pharmaceutical companies may say things with their bottom line in mind.You are not allowed to view links.

Hi Forum! Checking in after a long time away. Went to SDCC 2012-2019. Taking baby steps back into SDCC world - like many of you it's been a helluva pandemic. I was laid off April 2020, haven't been working since. A few of you may remember my son Will, he attended SDCC with Kelly and I in 2015. Last Nov. he was diagnosed with Stage IV kidney cancer. They removed a large bump from the back of his head which had broken through his skull - it was a cancer tumor which contained kidney cells. Now has a plate as the back of his head but the little bit of hair he has covers it. Large tumor on kidney, tumors in liver and spine. He is 28yrs old and is not expected to live past this year but we all keep hoping he has more time. Thank you to all the Forum members who were so kind to him when you met him. SDCC was an amazing experience for him. I'm trying to reconnect with others but I'm living in such a dark vortex it's hard to remember how to be with people so I'll just say Hello and I guess I'm hoping to rejoin the community...Awkwardly, which is how I do most things.
Welp, there goes in trying to get more people vaccinated now.
