- vengefulduck 5y agoI think you misunderstood, the GP is commenting on the Pfizer CEO saying that boosters will be required in 6 months which this paper seems to indicate won't be necessary.
- seunosewa 5y agoMight boosters still be required to provide immunity from new escape variants?
- nibsfive 5y agoNo. The variants are variants, not strains. It's based on gene deletes primarily. More Sneaky just means a bit less effective. Studies suggest about half as effective. So from 90% to 80% etc still highly effective.
- randomopining 5y agoMost people would pay $20 for improved effectiveness against newer variants, I would presume.
- takeda 5y agoMost people in 1st world countries (where $20 is not that much) would, but I like that it might not be needed. It's less hassle, and it also breaks all the assumptions were made by the anti vaccine misinformation.
- randomopining 5y agoAnti-vax, anti-mask crowd have been so wrong so many times over the last year. I doubt another huge L would change their minds. It's twilight zone level stuff.
- randomopining 5y agoAlright. I mean on an individual level, I and I'm sure a large majority of people would take a single booster for improved safety from the variants that took this evolutionary path. All for like $20 (cost of a shot).
