I am selectively pro and anti vax.
Pro Pfizer. Pro Moderna.
Anti J&J Anti AstraZeneca
Not quite sure yet on Shionogi, which should be out in
oral form soon in Japan once the final clinicals are completed. They are painstaking here and very careful, zero risk culture—it is taking forever for Ministry approvals for deployment by hospitals and doctors, similar to how long they took to get Pfizer and Moderna out into the public.
I personally believe they should have put as much energy into early detection (at home test kits) and therapeutics,, especially monoclonal antibodies which seem to be the best therapeutic if given early.
Interesting. Do the Japanese use aspiration when injecting the vaccine to ensure it doesn’t go into a blood vessel?
