#vaccines — Public Fediverse posts

Elizabeth Jacobs, PhD on Bluesky: "Just in time for the 2026-2027 vaccines, a new review shows that COVID19 vaccination significantly reduces the risk of severe illness and hospitalization across all age groups, including kids.

Pregnant women were also protected, as were their babies.

Don’t forget to schedule your vaccination!"

Got a text from CVS recently that informs me the new Covid-19 vaccine will be available soon. Which makes me wonder:

Are you getting the latest Covid vaccine?

#RFKJr personally asked to remove #Pennsylvania #measles deaths from #CDC tally, sources say

Kennedy’s request came after CDC staffers had already accepted the state’s characterization of the deaths as linked to measles, a Pennsylvania official said.

Despite that, #EricaSchwartz, the recently appointed director of the CDC, agreed with Kennedy’s directive & implemented it WITHOUT OBJECTION, said the 3 sources….

New WorldPop maps reveal where children are missing routine vaccines across the Democratic Republic of the Congo. An estimated 775,000 infants had not received DTP1, while 1.96 million had missed their first measles vaccine. The detailed maps can help health teams target outreach and reach communities hidden by provincial averages.

#Covid #CVS #Vaccine #Vaccines

Text message from CVS that I was actually glad to see! I had a reminder on my calendar for Sept. 12 to schedule another Covid vaccine, it being six months from my last one.

I used to try to time these for maximum protection when visiting my dad in Florida, but that's no longer a concern. (RIP)

Was talking with @jennifer and we agree on this - growing up, we saw the climate crisis coming but didn't realize it would hit this soon. What we didn't see was American fascism or antivaxx becoming dominant narratives.

For me in particular, I've been in love with the idea of AI since I was little. LLMs aren't it. I've never seen AI as tooling, I guess. I've seen it as a way to eventually create beings without our physical limitations.

I'm an optimist, and I never considered capitalists seeing AI as a way to create slaves and displace workers.

I'm going to get a copy of "Blood in the Machine: The Origins of the Rebellion Against Big Tech." I've ordered it from my local book store, but it's here at Barnes and Noble too:

Anyway, the author was interviewed by #BigPictureScience in 2024.

And if you are looking for quadrivalent vaccines -- ones that protect against 4 strains of flu -- they're not needed anymore. All the flu vaccines this year only cover for 3 strains. The usual 4th strain, B/Yamagata, hasn't been seen since 2020. That was when we spend a few months trying to hide from a particular respiratory virus. It looks like we may have gotten rid of one of them, just not the one we were trying for.
