CDC ^ | 28 Feb 2021 | CDC

Posted on 02/28/2021 11:20:38 AM PST by BeauBo

Total Vaccine Doses Delivered: 96,402,490

People Receiving 1 or More Doses: 49,772,180

Receiving 2 Doses: 24,779,920

(Excerpt) Read more at covid.cdc.gov ...


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Culture/Society; Government; News/Current Events
KEYWORDS: moderna; pfizer
For the 24 hours since the last update:

Doses Delivered: Virtually none - now common on the weekends.

People Receiving 1st Dose: 1.3 million (a very strong day)

People Receiving 2nd Dose: 1.1 million (a very strong day)

The weekend pattern of lots of shots administered, but few delivered, was in operation. Very strong day for administering shots.

The Johnson & Johnson vaccine received formal Emergency Use Authorization, and shipments should start arriving tomorrow (Monday 1 March), with 20 million of the single shot doses expected in March. Pfizer and Moderna both surged to a (28%) higher level of production last week as well.

March is on track to double the vaccination capacity that we saw in February. More big increases are expected to add on in April as well (Novavax and AstraZeneca).

Almost half (25M out of 55M) of people over 65 years old, have received at least a first shot. 1 out of 5 (11M out of 55M) have finished their second.

5/8ths of Nursing Home residents have finished their second shots.

15% of the Total Population has now received a first shot (19.5% of those over 18 years old).

7.5% of the Total Population has finished their second (9.7% of those over 18 years old).

Those under 18 are just not priorities for vaccination.

Those under 16 haven’t even been in trials for the vaccines yet. The typical pattern would be to enroll them in decreasing age groups. 15-16, 13-14, 10-12, and so on. The earlier you’re able to vaccinate, the fewer available targets there are. That’s how we wiped smallpox off the face of the Earth. That’s how polio is actively being driven off the face of the Earth.

I have to wonder whether the CDC has had the foresight to have a separate count that will be for people/doses received of single-dose vaccines such as the Janssen (J & J) vaccine that will be given starting this week. I hope so.

Even if the CDC had the foresight, our terrible governors would do something to $crew it up.

We know a lot of active docs, Rns and other medical people who will step up for the J&J shot. Many feel that they are semi immune from previous contacts. This one shot is the best and easiest way for them and the people providing the shots.

I’m going to follow the J&J vaccine closely. I’m leary of the other two. Besides, one shot is better than two.

“I’m going to follow the J&J vaccine closely. I’m leary of the other two.”

I believe that AstraZeneca also uses a traditional technical approach. Probably the Novavax as well, but I am not sure about that.

It is going to require a separate accounting category, to keep things straight.

We will see in another couple of days, how they will handle it.

There seems to be hesitation in giving the AstraZeneca to over 65s. Although I’m not quite that old, I am immunocompromised, and for these purposes, I’m often subject to the same protocols.

Interestingly, there is evidence that one of my daily medications probably protects against the worst of the illness, preventing cytokine storms.

Definitely easier logistics, but you sacrifice some efficacy with it (~82% vs ~95%).

Still though, 82% is pretty good. And if it helps expand the rollout and drive us toward a return to normal faster, I’m on board.

My understanding of the issue with AstraZeneca and people over 65, is just that the study design did not include enough over 65 year olds for the same high confidence as the other vaccines, rather than any actual negative findings.
