@HoltgraveHealth CDC Director Jonathan Reiner CNN 15% of US fully vaccinated + 20% had COVID = 35% immune, clearly far from 70-80% desired for herd immunity. Vaccinating ~ 1% of US population/day we are ~ 40 days away. Hang in there a bit longer and avoid another surge!

More good news. Pfizer has the six month update. *Zero* hospitalizations among the vaccinated vs. 32 among the placebo group (n=46,307). Also real life data from South Africa, where B.1.351 is dominant: zero cases of COVID among the vaccinated vs. nine in the placebo (n=800).

The US vaccination campaign is losing momentum and it's essential to get that back. There are almost 60 million unused doses out there. No age limits now. B.1.1.7 is still gaining and we've got to rev it up.

Not only is everything safer once your vaccinated, but new data from >620,000 people prospectively assessed after getting vaccinated shows the safety of vaccines is even better than the clinical trials predicted thelancet.com/journals/lanin… The Lancet Infectious Diseases
