I can't argue with that because I agree. I was mostly posting to show that even mainstream medicine thinks there is some benefit to nose sprays. Giving more credence to the proposal to use the iodine or xylitol ones.

Immune Tolerance: IgG4 Class Switch Starts with Even Two Doses of mRNA Vaccines

Three weeks ago, I reported on mRNA vaccines causing immune tolerance.
Booster-Caused IgG4 Immune Tolerance Explains Excess Mortality and "Chronic Covid"Rintrah Radagast posted a very important article yesterday. It shows us a potential explanation of why excess mortality is related to COVID boosters, why the association of Covid vaccines with mortality strengthens as time goes on instead of declining, and why…Read more18 days ago · 847 likes · 814 comments · Igor Chudov
That previous post, which went viral and brought me 1,008 new subscribers, was based on a study that reported levels of IgG4 (causing deadly immune tolerance to Sars-Cov-2) rising after a booster dose of mRNA vaccines and especially after breakthrough infections.
Unfortunately, another piece of bad news came out yesterday. A study analyzing antibody classes in vaccinated people was just published. It has many findings and is worth several separate posts.
The main finding and the bad news is that mRNA vaccines induce immune tolerance, evidenced by IgG4 antibodies, even after two doses (initial “fully vaccinated” series).
This is one chart from it, to be looked at again later, with my annotations in RED:
It shows that for previously uninfected people, as time passes after mRNA vaccinations (purple for Moderna and blue for Pfizer):
Interestingly, the same problem does not appear after inoculation with AstraZeneca, which is viral-vector based and has no mRNA.
- the quantity of good, disease-fighting IgG3 antibodies declines
- the quantity of bad, disease-ignoring IgG4 antibodies rises
- This leads to “immune tolerance,” causing multiple problems explained in my previous post.
You can see in the picture above that the AstraZeneca line (yellow) stays on the bottom. Thus, the problem of immune tolerance and rising IgG4 only applies to mRNA vaccines. That’s good news for people who had their adenovirus vector vaccination only.
Another good news is that for people who had previous Covid-19 infection (before vaccination), IgG4 also does NOT rise, even after mRNA injections:
So, the kinds of people most affected by IgG4 are infection-naive persons who got mRNA vaccinated before having their Covid-19 infection.
People’s Antibody Responses Are Wildly Different
Take another look at the same charts. I picked a couple and highlighted (in orange) how wildly spread are the antibody counts. Look at the surprised face:
Is that wild variation because of the different lots of mRNA vaccines? Is that because of individual differences? Could accidental injections into small blood vessels play a role? I have no idea, but someone needs to look into this.
Good News for mRNA Vaccinated People!
The wild spread of antibody counts means some individuals did not develop immune tolerance despite receiving mRNA shots!
So if you, dear reader, or your loved ones had mRNA vaccines, do not despair — you may be one of those lucky people whose IgG4 count is low, and thus you would NOT be affected by immune tolerance. Such people exist -- see the chart above.
How would such a vaccinated person know if they are, or are not, immune-tolerant to Sars-Cov-2 without expensive lab tests?
My answer is SPECULATIVE, but: if your breakthrough infection involved a lot of fever and bone aches, ended within a week with negative tests, and you had other signs of a vigorous immune reaction, you may be lucky and have low IgG4 levels. Do not take this suggestion with any degree of certainty!
This is a Great Study. We need MORE of Those!
The study I am discussing is excellent and gives an in-depth dive into what sorts of “antibodies” people develop. The study offers multiple interesting findings; the one I am reporting is only one of many.
One aspect I always lamented about our “Covid response” is that the science is not interested in comprehensive research on people's immune reactions, the differences between natural and vaccinated immunity, and so on.
This Buhre et al. study finally provides an in-depth look and detailed answers to the questions we were all asking.
There is enough material for many interested substack authors to analyze and report on.
What do you think explains a huge variation in immune responses? Any idea?

Holidays didn't lead to feared bump in flu cases, CDC says

Holidays didn’t lead to feared bump in flu cases, CDC says
By MIKE STOBBE
January 13, 2023
NEW YORK (AP) — New U.S. government data suggests holiday gatherings didn’t spark surges in respiratory diseases.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday reported that visits to doctors’ offices for the flu-like illnesses fell for the sixth straight week. Reports of RSV, a common cause of cold-like symptoms that can be serious for infants and the elderly, are also down.
When flu and RSV surged in the fall, causing overloads at pediatric emergency rooms, some doctors feared that winter might bring a “ tripledemic ” of flu, RSV and COVID-19. And they worried holiday gatherings might be the spark.
But it didn’t happen, apparently.
“Right now, everything continues to decline,” said the CDC’s Lynnette Brammer, who leads the government agency’s tracking of flu in the United States.
RSV hospitalizations have been going down since November, and flu hospitalizations are down, too.
Of course, the situation is uneven across the country, and some places have more illnesses than others. But some doctors say patient traffic is easing.
“It has really eased up, considerably,” said Dr. Ethan Wiener, a pediatric ER doctor at the Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone in New York City.
Dr. Jason Newland, a pediatric infectious diseases physician at St. Louis Children’s Hospital in Missouri, said “it has slowed down, tremendously,”
Newland said he wasn’t surprised that flu and RSV continued to trend down in recent weeks, but added: “The question is what was COVID going to do?”
COVID-19 hospitalizations rose through December, including during the week after Christmas. One set of CDC data appears to show they started trending down after New Year’s, although an agency spokeswoman noted that another count indicates an uptick as of last week. Because of reporting lags it may be a few weeks until CDC can be sure COVID-19 hospitalizations have really started dropping, she said.
Newland said there was an increase in COVID-19 traffic at St. Louis Children’s in December. But he noted the situation was nothing like it was a year ago, when the then-new omicron variant was causing the largest national surge of COVID-19 hospitalizations since the pandemic began.
“That was the worst,” he said.
The fall RSV and flu surge was felt most acutely at health care centers for children. Wiener said the pediatric emergency department traffic at Hassenfeld was 50% above normal levels in October, November and December — “the highest volumes ever” for that time of year, he said.
The RSV and flu surges likely faded because so many members of the vulnerable population were infected “and it just kind of burnt itself out,” he said.
It makes sense that respiratory infections could rebound amid holiday travel and gatherings, and it’s not exactly clear why that didn’t happen, Brammer said.
That said, flu season isn’t over. Thirty-six states are still reporting high or very high levels of flu activity, and it’s always possible that a second wave of illnesses is still ahead, experts said.

In emails to White House, Facebook admits suppressing ‘often-true content’ on COVID-19 vaccines
The email are included in documents released this week by Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey that he acquired through a court case.
By Joseph Weber
Updated: January 13, 2023 - 10:30am
Facebook told an official at the Biden White House in March 2021 that the Big Tech company took action against the “virality” of “often-true content” regarding the COVID-19 vaccines, in addition to suppressed misinformation about the shots.
The email are included in documents released this week by Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey that he acquired through a court case.
The case, Missouri v. Biden, alleging that some of President Joe Biden’s top officials “colluded with Big Tech social media companies to violate Americans’ right to free speech under the First Amendment.”
In the March 21, 2021, email a Facebook staff member discussed “levers for tackling vaccine hesitancy content” with Andrew Slavitt, then a senior adviser on Biden’s COVID-19 response team, and Rob Flaherty, White House director of digital strategy, according to The Daily Signal.
"You also asked us about our levers for reducing virality of vaccine hesitancy content," wrote the Facebook staffer, whose identity was redacted.
"As you know, in addition to removing vaccine misinformation, we have been focused on reducing the virality of content discouraging vaccines that does not contain actionable information. This is often-true content, which we allow at the post level because it is important for people to be able to discuss both their personal experiences and concerns about the vaccine, but it can be framed as sensation, alarmist, or shocking."
“We’ll remove these Groups, Pages, and Accounts when they are disproportionately promoting this sensationalized content,” the Facebook staffer also said. "More on this front as we proceed to implement."
In an April 22, 2021, email, Flaherty told Google staff that the White House remains "concerned that Youtube [sic] is 'funneling' people into hesitance and intensifying people’s hesitancy. We certainly recognize that removing content that is unfavorable to the cause of increasing vaccine adoption is not a realistic – or even good – solution."
Flaherty also said combating vaccine hesitancy "is a concern that is shared at the highest (and I mean highest) levels of the WH," meaning the White House.

CDC, FDA see possible link between Pfizer’s bivalent shot and strokes

CDC, FDA see possible link between Pfizer’s bivalent shot and strokes
The agencies said the surveillance signal “is very unlikely” to represent a “true clinical risk” and said they continued to recommend the vaccine.
By Ben Leonard and Lauren Gardner

The CDC and FDA announced on Friday that their surveillance system flagged a possible link between the new Pfizer-BioNTech bivalent Covid-19 vaccine and strokes in people aged 65 and over, but said they were continuing to recommend the shots.
The surveillance “raised a question of whether” stroke risk was elevated in the 21-day period post-vaccination versus 22 to 44 days post-vaccination, according to a statement on the CDC website.
The agencies said other data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Department of Veterans Affairs and other sources haven’t shown an elevated risk of stroke.
“Although the totality of the data currently suggests that it is very unlikely that the signal … represents a true clinical risk, we believe it is important to share this information with the public, as we have in the past, when one of our safety monitoring systems detects a signal,” the statement said.
The real-time surveillance system, CDC’s Vaccine Safety Datalink, met criteria warranting further investigation into whether the bivalent Pfizer vaccine led to a higher risk of ischemic stroke, which occurs when arteries pumping blood to the brain are blocked by a blood clot.
Pfizer and BioNTech said in a statement that there is “there is no evidence to conclude that ischemic stroke is associated with the use of the companies’ COVID-19 vaccines.”
The announcement prompted a response from House Energy and Commerce Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-Wash.), who said CDC and FDA will testify before her committee.
“These agencies must rapidly investigate, in an open and transparent manner, whether or not the vaccine may have contributed to the reported strokes,” McMorris Rodgers said in a statement. “If there’s one lesson that the CDC and FDA should have taken away from the pandemic, it’s the importance of providing honest, clear, precise, and timely information to the American people about the potential risks and benefits of COVID-19 interventions, including vaccination.”
The announcement comes as the Biden administration has aggressively promoted the updated vaccine to older Americans.
Individuals over 65 are most at risk for serious illness from Covid, including hospitalization and death, and CDC data shows that 70 percent of average new daily hospital admissions of patients with confirmed Covid-19 over the last week were 60 and older.
Less than 40 percent of people over 65 have gotten the booster shot that became available in the fall, according to the CDC, despite the administration’s six-week push to increase vaccination in that age group ahead of the holidays. Ninety-four percent of seniors have gotten the two primary series messenger-RNA shots.
Millions of doses of the messenger-RNA Covid vaccines made by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna — the agencies said the Moderna shot was not flagged by its surveillance — have been administered in the U.S., and federal health officials have repeatedly deemed them safe and effective for use in anyone 6 months of age and older.
Still, rare but serious side effects — which can occur with any pharmaceutical product — have arisen since the vaccines’ debut.
Data has shown an elevated risk of myocarditis and pericarditis — inflammation of the heart muscle and membrane, respectively — after the second mRNA vaccine dose among males ages 12 to 39, with those in their late teens and 20s most affected. The condition can also occur after infection with Covid and other ailments and tends to be more severe in those cases, and the FDA and the CDC say the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks.
Federal officials paused use of the Johnson & Johnson single-dose Covid vaccine for 10 days in April 2021, just weeks after its debut, after vaccine adverse event surveillance systems detected a possible link between a serious blood-clotting condition and the shots.
The FDA later found that about 15 percent of the cases of thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome, known as TTS, were fatal, with the highest reporting rate among women ages 30 to 49. That vaccine, made with a different technology, has largely fallen out of favor in the U.S. in favor of the mRNA shots, with the FDA limiting the J&J vaccine’s use in May 2022 to adults who are unable or unwilling to get the Pfizer or Moderna products.

Pfizer's bivalent COVID shot may be linked to stroke risk
U.S. drugmaker Pfizer Inc and German partner BioNTech's updated COVID-19 shot could be linked to a type of brain stroke in older adults, the CDC and FDA reported.
CDC and FDA say they're investigating possible link between Pfizer's bivalent Covid booster and strokes in seniors over age of 65 — but officials have 'no concerns at this time'
By Mansur Shaheen Deputy Health Editor For Dailymail.Com and Reuters
Published: 16:23 EST, 13 January 2023 | Updated: 18:47 EST, 13 January 2023
- Officials say over-65s who receive the bivalent shot suffer increased stroke risk
- Leading regulators still recommend the Covid booster shot to Americans
- Ischemic strokes are caused when artery blockages deny blood to the brain
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said their surveillance system flagged a link between the new shot and a higher risk of an ischemic stroke three to four weeks post-vaccination.
Officials said other systems put in place to track vaccine injuries have not found a similar link, which makes them believe it is a statistical anomaly rather than a true cause for alarm.
'Although the totality of the data currently suggests that it is very unlikely that the signal … represents a true clinical risk, we believe it is important to share this information with the public, as we have in the past, when one of our safety monitoring systems detects a signal,' a joint statement from the CDC and FDA said.
The CDC reports that 31million bivalent Pfizer boosters (striped orange) have been administered to Americans since it was first approved by officials at the end of August. It has been the most popular updated vaccine dose to this point
An ischemic stroke, also known as brain ischemia, is caused by blockages in arteries that carry blood to the brain.
The possible link between Pfizer's jab and the elevated stroke risk was detected by the CDC’s Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD), a real-time surveillance system.
Officials said it met the statistical threshold needed to spur further investigation.
But they are still strongly recommending seniors come for their vaccines, which have been shown to give high protection against severe Covid.
Other data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Department of Veterans Affairs and other sources have not shown the same risk of stroke, which leads officials to believe it is a statistical outlier.
And data from other countries has not flagged the possible link.
In the statement today, the FDA and CDC added 'there may be other confounding factors contributing to the signal identified in the VSD that merit further investigation.'
The link applies only to Pfizer's bivalent booster and not Moderna's, and no other age groups appear to be affected.
According to CDC data, 39 percent of elderly Americans over 65 have received either Pfizer's or Moderna's bivalent booster.
Pfizer told DailyMail.com is has been made aware of limited reports of ischemic strokes in people 65 and older following vaccination with their updated shot.
'Neither Pfizer and BioNTech nor the CDC or the FDA have observed similar findings across numerous other monitoring systems in the US,' Pfizer added.
'Globally and there is no evidence to conclude that ischemic stroke is associated with the use of the companies' COVID-19 vaccines.
'Compared to published incidence rates of ischemic stroke in this older population, the companies to date have observed a lower number of reported ischemic strokes following the vaccination with the Omicron BA.4/BA.5-adapted bivalent vaccine.'
Around 40 percent of Americans over the age of 65 (dark purple) have received the bivalent Covid booster. This far outpaces any other age group, according to CDC data (other colors)
The VSD is a database run by the CDC that gathers data on vaccine-related injury and adverse effects from the shots around America.
The CDC lists 13 health insurers and hospital systems that contribute to the database, with 11 directly providing data.
Data from the VSD is included in the larger, Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System - known as VAERS.
Pfizer/BioNtech and Moderna's bivalent shots, which target both the original coronavirus and Omicron sub-variants, have been authorized for use in children six months and older.
The shots were brought into the fold because they directly target the Omicron variant.
Original Covid vaccines that rolled out in late 2020 were tailored towards the Wuhan strain of the virus, which emerged at the start of that year.
The Omicron variant, which took over the world at the end of 2021, mutated to bypass protection from those shots, though.
More than 25 percent of residents in Maine, Minnesota, Massachusetts and Vermont have received the bivalent booster so far, the most of any states in America, the CDC reports
These bivalent shots are meant to bolster protection against infection and slow the spread of the many emerging forms of Omicron.
Both the CDC and FDA continue to recommend that everyone aged six months and older stay up-to-date with their COVID-19 vaccination, despite this warning.
White House officials have pushed these vaccines in recent months, and expressed disappointment in the relatively low uptick of them in the population.
Last week, Dr Ashish Jha, the Biden Administration's Covid response coordinator, even warned Americans who had not received the bivalent jab were vulnerable to the budding XBB.1.5 variant.
'If you had an infection before July OR your last vaccine was before bivalent update in September... your protection against an XBB.1.5 infection is probably not that great,' he wrote on Twitter.
According to most recent CDC data, 50million Americans have received the updated booster - around 15 percent of the US population.
But, the largest portion of people who have received the shot so far could be at an increased stroke risk.
Per CDC data, 21million Americans over 65 have received the bivalent booster. That accounts for nearly two-in-five senior citizens in America.
An ischemic stroke occurs when the flow of blood to the brain is interrupted. This is usually from a blood clot.
Brain tissue begins to die within minutes of it being deprived of oxygen-rich blood.
More than 700,000 Americans suffer an ischemic stroke each year. It accounts for almost 90 percent of all strokes.
A stroke is fatal in up to 20 percent of cases. Even survivors are often left with permanent brain damage, which leads to speech, vision and mobility issues - among other things.
Early last year, the CDC warned that young males who had received the mRNA vaccines - either the Pfizer or Moderna shot were at an increased risk of suffering heart inflammation.
The agency warned that myocarditis was appearing more frequently in males 16 and older within seven days of receiving the shot.
Officials also continued to recommend the vaccine to this age group despite the warning.

Once this all washes out, I hope Dr. McCullough wins a huge settlement from his former employer (Baylor, wasn't it?) and all others who worked toward silencing him and damaging his reputation.
Same for all the others who's careers were damaged or destroyed by an effort to silence them.
I hope they end up owning the medical 'system'. They've proven they care far more about 'The Science' and people than the current owners/managers.

Dealing with long COVID? Study finds common cutoff point when symptoms finally vanish
For many, symptoms lasted months but eventually subsided, the research found.
Does the COVID-19 Vaccine Really Make You Immune to Botox?
Danielle Sinay - GLAMOUR
Fri, January 13, 2023, 2:04 PM EST
Does your Botox seem to be fading faster than usual? Apparently, you're not alone: Not only are doctors taking to social media to report patients needing more frequent touch-ups, but a recent study found that Botox could be less effective after COVID vaccination. The key word there is could, though: The report states that Botox “might be less effective” postvaccination, noting that “further research is required” to reach any conclusion—especially because the study was conducted on only 45 people.
“More research is needed [on the topic],” Marisa Garshick, MD, board-certified dermatologist at MDCS Dermatology, points out. “When a study is small, it is hard to interpret and generalize the results for a larger population.” Furthermore, it's possible people only think they need to touch up their Botox more often due to cosmetic injections' increasing popularity (more on that below).
Still, the internet took this information—or more likely, an out-of-context headline—and ran with it, resulting in a now viral rumor that COVID vaccines cause immunity to Botox. But vaccines do not cause immunity, and rumors you may have seen online have nothing to do with the study.
To set the record straight, we've gathered everything you need to know about Botox and COVID vaccines, according to actual dermatologists, who assert that, yes, you should still be getting vaccinated.
Do COVID-19 vaccines make you immune to Botox?
No. The word immune implies partial or total resistance, which wasn't the case for the study participants. The Botox in question did take effect, meaning it worked and therefore they were not resistant. The only difference between pre- and postvaccination is participants' claim that Botox didn't last as long as before. You know what the COVID vaccine does make you up to 90% immune to, though? COVID-19!That said, it is technically possible to become “immune” to Botox with continual treatment. “Generally speaking, we know that, over time, many patients do develop an immunity to Botox,” Joshua Zeichner, MD, board-certified dermatologist and director of cosmetic and clinical research at Mount Sinai Medical Center's Department of Dermatology, says. “This means that patients are getting used to the treatments, which are not lasting as long as they used to, and some patients even require higher doses than they used to.”
So what did the study find?
“This study showed that the time between botulinum toxin A injections [botox appointments] was shorter after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine,” Dr. Garshick says. According to the study, which had a sample size of only 45 people, the time between each touch-up decreased by 22 days: Participants' Botox reportedly lasted a mean of 118 days prior to vaccination, and now lasts a mean of 96.“While this may suggest that Botox is lasting a shorter amount of time, the study is too small to draw any conclusions,” Garshick reiterates.
Why are the vaccines possibly affecting Botox?
“We know that the COVID vaccine has an impact on our immune system,” Dr. Zeichner says, pointing to a small number of patients developing reactions to dermal fillers after vaccination in 2021. “This new data suggests that the COVID vaccine may also have an impact on longevity of Botox, but it is unclear whether Botox is not lasting as long, or whether patients are choosing to come in earlier for injections because of altered expectations. I personally have seen a major shift in my practice before and after the pandemic.”These altered expectations may have to do with what many experts refer to as “Zoom doom.” Amid the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, people saw themselves on camera more than ever before, and reportedly noticed more of their “flaws,” resulting in the desire to pursue cosmetic procedures. This, combined with the uptick of plastic surgeons and injectors using social media to promote their practices, helped normalize injectables, making them more popular than ever before. Therefore it's possible that this is a coincidental phenomenon, rather than a clinical one, seeing as how many more people are now getting Botox.
How did the “immunity” rumor start?
Various sources of information were compiled and shared together on social media without context, which led readers to believe they were related. This included a screenshot of an article from The Telegraph published in August 2021, the headline of which read: “Coronavirus May Be Making Us Immune to Botox, Says Specialist Doctor.”The only source for this claim is one person, the “specialist doctor.” Other slides, however, feature screenshots of the actual study, which was published over a full year later. This also doesn't use the word immunity, and has nothing to do with the Telegraph headline; the 2022 study and the 2021 article just so happen to cover slightly similar ground. When grouped together in one post, however, it seems that they do. Hence the viral misunderstanding.
Should I continue to get vaccinated?
Yes, you should continue to get vaccinated—even if that potentially means your face needs more frequent touch-ups. A few forehead lines didn't kill nearly 7 million people, leaving one in five of them with chronic symptoms.“It is still important to get the COVID vaccine,” asserts Dr. Garshick, and Dr. Zeichner agrees: “This should not be a reason to avoid it. It is important that people still continue to get their COVID vaccine to protect themselves from this potentially deadly virus.”

Dealing with long COVID? Study finds common cutoff point when symptoms finally vanish
Julia Marnin - Miami Herald
Fri, January 13, 2023, 6:52 PM EST
We’ve already learned long COVID can last a long time for people after their coronavirus infection, with symptoms persisting weeks or even months later.
Now, for those dealing with the medical phenomenon, a new study published Jan. 11 in the peer-reviewed journal The BMJ offers insight into when symptoms could finally come to an end — identifying a cutoff point for people.
Researchers found that following a mild COVID-19 infection, lingering health effects lasted months for the majority of people dealing with them, but most symptoms subsided within a year, according to the work conducted in Israel.
The findings came after analyzing the health records of nearly 2 million Israeli patients, both vaccinated and unvaccinated, who took a COVID-19 test between March 2020 and October 2021.
Long COVID symptoms were found to be “more prominent” in the first six months after infection. Then, they began to subside afterward, the researchers wrote.
The findings suggest “that mild disease does not lead to serious or chronic long term morbidity in the vast majority of patients,” the researchers wrote.
Here’s what else there is to know about the study:
More on the research
When the research in Israel was conducted, the original SARS-CoV-2 strain as well as the alpha and delta variants were spreading in Israel, according to the study. Despite the different variants, the study’s results remained consistent when it came to long COVID.
Out of almost 2 million patient health records that were examined, researchers compared nearly 300,000 patients who tested positive for COVID-19 — after excluding those who were hospitalized — and nearly 300,000 patients who tested negative.
The study included more than 118,000 patients under the age of 18 who previously had COVID-19, and the average age of those who tested positive was 25, according to the research.
Among those who tested positive, several long COVID outcomes were reported and were split into two categories — symptoms reported in the early phase, during one to six months following a positive test, and the late phase, during six months to a year following a positive test, according to the study.
In the researchers’ analysis of the data, factors including the age and sex of the patients, as well as COVID-19 variants, were taken into account.
The study found that during both the early and late phases, a mild COVID-19 infection resulted in higher risks of developing loss of smell, a change in taste, trouble breathing, brain fog, fatigue and palpitations.
There was also a “significant but lower” risk for experiencing tonsillitis and dizziness during both phases, researchers wrote.
Risks for developing other symptoms such as hair loss, chest pain, cough, sore muscles and respiratory issues were heightened only during the first six months following a positive COVID-19 test, according to the study.
Notably, vaccinated patients infected with COVID-19 had a lower risk of experiencing breathing troubles but had a “similar risk for other outcomes compared with unvaccinated infected patients,” authors wrote.
The study also showed that there were only slight differences between men and women when developing long COVID, and children were less affected by long COVID symptoms in the first six months after infection.
For most long COVID patients, study author Maytal Bivas-Benita told NBC News “this will get better.”
Study authors wrote that one strength of their research is it included many younger patients, who they said are “less represented” in prior studies, who had a mild COVID-19 infection.
They said one limitation of the work was the long COVID symptoms identified in the study were ones reported by patients, not ones that were diagnosed.
What are the odds of developing long COVID?
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention research published in May, about 1 in 5 adults may develop at least one long COVID symptom after an infection.
In late August, the Brookings Institution reported that about 16 million people in the U.S. ages 18 to 65 are estimated to be living with long COVID.
The term long COVID was made popular by patients who continued to experience lasting health effects from the virus, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

China reports 60,000 COVID-related deaths, says peak passed
By JOE McDONALD
January 14, 2023
BEIJING (AP) — China on Saturday reported nearly 60,000 deaths in people who had COVID-19 since early December, offering hard numbers for an unprecedented surge that was apparent in overcrowded hospitals and packed crematoriums, even as the government released little data about the status of the pandemic for weeks.
Those numbers may still underestimate the toll, though the government said the “emergency peak” of its latest surge appears to have passed.
The toll included 5,503 deaths due to respiratory failure caused by COVID-19 and 54,435 fatalities from other ailments combined with COVID-19 since Dec. 8, the National Health Commission announced. It said those “deaths related to COVID” occurred in hospitals, which means anyone who died at home would not be included in the numbers.
The report would more than double China’s official COVID-19 death toll to 10,775 since the disease was first detected in the central city of Wuhan in late 2019. China has counted only deaths from pneumonia or respiratory failure in its official COVID-19 death toll, a narrow definition that excludes many deaths that would be attributed to COVID-19 in much of the world.
China stopped reporting data on COVID-19 deaths and infections after abruptly lifting anti-virus controls in early December despite a surge in infections that began in October and has filled hospitals with feverish, wheezing patients. Hospitals in Beijing across the country have been overwhelmed with patients, and funeral homes and crematoriums have struggled to handle the dead.
The World Health Organization and other governments appealed for information after reports by city and provincial governments suggested as many as hundreds of millions of people in China might have contracted the virus.
Infection numbers now appear to be falling based on a decline in the number of patients visiting fever clinics, said a National Health Commission official, Jiao Yahui.
The daily number of people going to those clinics peaked at 2.9 million on Dec. 23 and had fallen by 83% to to 477,000 on Thursday, according to Jiao.
“These data show the national emergency peak has passed,” Jiao said at a news conference.
Whether China truly has passed a COVID-19 peak is hard to assess, said Dr. Dale Bratzler, chief COVID officer at the University of Oklahoma and head of quality control at the university’s hospital.
“That’s difficult to know,” Bratzler said. “China quarantined people indoors, there are many people unvaccinated, the people are vulnerable.”
Dr. Albert Ko, an infectious disease physician and professor of public health at the Yale School of Public Health, said the number of COVID-19 deaths China is reporting may be a “significant underestimation” because of how they define them.
“They’re using a very narrow case definition for (COVID) deaths,” Ko said. “They have to have respiratory failure ... in order to be counted as a case you have to be at a place where they can say you fulfilled all the requirements, and that’s at a hospital.”
Hospitals in China, Ko said, are located mostly in large cities where COVID outbreaks have been reported, not in isolated rural areas.
“This is the Lunar New Year, people are traveling, going to the countryside where the population is vulnerable,” Ko said. “We’re really worried about what’s going to happen in China as this outbreak moves to the countryside.”
For nearly three years, China had kept its infection rate and deaths far lower than those of the United States and some other countries at the height of the pandemic with a “zero-COVID” strategy that aimed to isolate every case. That shut down access to some cities, kept millions of people at home and sparked angry protests.
Those rules were suddenly eased in early December after some of the largest shows of public dissent against the ruling Communist Party in more than 30 years. That set off new problems in a country that relies on domestically developed vaccines that are less reliable than others used globally, and where older people — those more susceptible to dying from the virus — are less likely to be vaccinated than the general population.
The Health Commission said the average age of people who died since Dec. 8 is 80.3 years, and 90.1% are aged 65 and above. It said more than 90% of people who died had cancer, heart or lung diseases or kidney problems.
“The number of elderly patients dying from illness is relatively large, which suggests that we should pay more attention to elderly patients and try our best to save their lives,” said Jiao.
The United States, South Korea, Japan and several other countries have imposed virus testing and other controls on people arriving from China. Beijing retaliated on Wednesday by suspending issuance of new visas to travelers from South Korea and Japan.
This month, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said agency officials met with Chinese officials to underline the importance of sharing more details about COVID-19 issues, including hospitalization rates and genetic sequences.

Of course, the numbers in China are very likely to be underestimates - probably by large margins.
Nevertheless, the purpose of the tweet above is regarding how easy it is to lose sight of the fact that we still have had a passenger flight (or more) of deaths daily - every day

Jul 8, 2022
There was a lot of new important data released over the past 24 hours. The previously mentioned information mainly pertained to myocarditis, natural immunity, and courts orders against Covid vaccines.
First, Israel just released an enormous study of 600k+ individuals showing that Covid infection was not associated with increased rates of myocarditis. Of course, many have said higher rates of myocarditis were indeed linked to getting Covid, however, this study debunks that claim. Second, A judge in South Africa ordered an immediate halt of Covid vaccines to kids under the age of 13 as certain safety criteria were not met by vaccine manufacturers. Third, a new study revealed that even after 15 months, natural immunity was around 97.3% effective against hospitalization, ICU admission, and fatality from Covid reinfection.
Of course, all data has been summarized for below in easy to understand terms. Be that as it may, the sources should also be examined. Finally, the information in this publication is vital so make sure to share it with all friends and family so the truth spreads as fast as possible- click the share button immediately below.
A new Israeli retrospective, test-negative cohort study of 196k unvaccinated Covid cases found no increase in ICD-10 code myocarditis from infection (aHR 1.08;95% CI 0.45-2.56) VS 590k negative controls, despite previous claims that infection caused more myocarditis than vaccine.

A brand new study from Qatar highlights the effectiveness of pre-omicron infection against severe, critical, and fatal Omicron reinfection through June 2022, and the results are shocking.
First, the data indicate 97.3% (95% CI: 94.9-98.6%) effectiveness of primary infection against hospitalization, ICU admission, and fatality from Covid reinfection without waning and regardless of variant for up to 15 months.
Second, cumulative incidence of severe, critical, and fatal disease after primary COVID infection was 0.00% (95% CI: 0.00-0.01%) up to 15 months after primary infection.

A brand new study examining US NHNES health survey data of 55k individuals aged 20+ from 1999-2019 revealed that only 6.8% (95% CI: 5.4%-8.1%) of Americans had optimal cardio metabolic health in 2017-2018. That declining steadily from previous years (1999-2000).
Considering that, focus on sleep, diet, and an exercise routine.
Profit of Doom

Still shoveling the bullshit.
the study had a selection of participants all over the age of 18. typically the myocarditis that was seen was in younger males age 14 or so to 18, and likely related to too high of a dosing.
There was never an association of increased incidence of myocarditis with older populations that I'm aware of.

Pentagon mulls back pay for troops kicked out over Covid vaccine mandate
More than 8,400 service members were discharged for refusing the shot.

Pentagon mulls back pay for troops kicked out over Covid vaccine mandate
More than 8,400 service members were discharged for refusing the shot.
By Lara Seligman
01/13/2023 12:41 PM EST
The Pentagon is considering providing back pay to former service members who were discharged for refusing to get the Covid-19 vaccine, now that the mandate has been repealed, according to a spokesperson.
The Defense Department formally rescinded the mandate in a memo from Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Tuesday, after lawmakers directed the Pentagon to do so in the annual defense policy bill that passed into law in December. The military had already stopped discharging troops who refused the shot.
Austin’s memo opened the door to reinstating troops who believe they were wrongfully let go, stipulating that service members and veterans may apply to correct their records. While the military has not yet made a decision on providing back pay to service members for the time that they were discharged, a spokesperson said the department is looking into it.
“Regarding back pay, the Department is still exploring this and will provide its views on legislation of this nature at the appropriate time and through the appropriate process,” said Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Charlie Dietz in a Friday email to POLITICO.
Providing back pay would be a win for Republicans who railed against the vaccine mandate. Last year, a bloc of GOP senators, led by Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, won a fight to repeal the policy after threatening to stall the annual defense policy bill if they didn’t receive a vote on ending the mandate and reinstating troops with back pay.
The measure defied the wishes of both the Pentagon and the White House, who said they wanted to retain the mandate. But while the directive was repealed, it stopped short of requiring the Pentagon to reinstate troops who were let go for refusing the shot or give them back pay.
GOP senators threaten to block defense bill over Covid vaccine mandate
Austin’s memo directed that no service members will be separated solely on the basis of refusing to get the Covid-19 shot if they “sought an accommodation on religious, administrative or medical grounds,” and that the military will remove any “adverse actions,” including letters of reprimand, stemming from their refusal.
However, the memo states that commanders have the authority to consider troops’ immunization status in making decisions on deployments, assignments, or travel to a foreign nation.
More than 8,400 troops were kicked out of the military for refusing the vaccine. Thousands of others sought religious and medical exemptions, many of which were still pending when DoD rescinded the mandate. Austin’s memo directed the military services to cease reviewing those cases.
The Pentagon has administered vaccines to more than two million service members, and 96 percent of the force, including both the active duty and reserve, is fully vaccinated, Austin wrote in the memo. Roughly 99 percent of active-duty troops in the Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps are vaccinated, as well as 98 percent of the Army.
Even some Democrats conceded that the mandate may no longer make sense, given the state of the pandemic and the fact that most troops are already vaccinated.
“I was a very strong supporter of the vaccine mandate when we did it,” House Armed Services Chair Adam Smith (D-Wash.) told POLITICO in an interview. “But at this point in time, does it make sense to have that policy from August 2021?”
A day after the mandate was repealed, former Vice President Mike Pence in a Wednesday interview called on President Joe Biden to reinstate and provide back pay to troops who were let go for refusing to get the shot. Pence called the mandate “unconscionable.”
“I think now that Secretary Austin has implemented what Congress passed into law, lifting the vaccine mandate on members of our armed forces, now I’m calling on the Biden administration and the Pentagon to reinstate every man and woman that was discharged from our armed forces because they refused to take the vaccine, and give them 100 percent back pay for the time after they were discharged,” Pence said.

Japan's experts baffled by high Covid deaths
Guy Gin
Jan 13
After three booster campaigns in 2022, the Japanese are now in a league of their own among mRNA consuming countries, administering far more boosters than countries that had far more coercive vax campaigns.
Japanese over 65 have done their best to reduce Japan’s 612-million-dose stockpile of mRNA jabs, with 3rd, 4th, and 5th jab rates of 91%, 82.5%, and 56%, respectively. But unfortunately, Japan has started 2023 by reporting its highest ever daily Covid death tolls. During the booster era starting in early 2022, each wave has been noticeably higher than the last.
What could possibly explain this? Let’s ask Takaji Wakita, chairman of Japan’s Covid Response Advisory Board.
The cause of the rise in Covid deaths is *hard to explain.*
What about Dr Satoshi Kamayachi, director of the Japan Medical Association?
JMA director on increased Covid deaths: “There’s a lot we don’t know, and we don’t have evidence.”
Nice to see an expert admit the limit of his knowledge. But there must be something Dr Kamayachi can tell us, right?
Dr Kamayachi, citing the rapid spread of Covid infections as one reason, explained that the majority of those who died were over 60 and many had underlying medical conditions. The direct cause of death is often heart failure or kidney disease, and he said that "thorough analysis is needed."
Heart failure, you say? Well, it’s not like most Japanese over 60 have been injected multiple times with anything that causes cardiovascular problems, is it? And kidney disease is coincidentally a side-effect of Remdesivir, an approved Covid treatment in Japan.
Of course, Japan has been counting anyone who dies with a positive test result as a Covid death regardless of actual cause of death since 2020, but Dr Kamayachi and the rest of Japan’s experts haven’t bothered bringing up the issue of attribution until now. In fact, they were more than happy to cite inflated mortality data to help promote the jabs. But now that people may question why daily reported Covid deaths are higher than ever after the majority of over 65s have taken the experts’ advice to get multiple boosters, underlying medical conditions can apparently be discussed.
But although he’s three years late, Dr Kamayachi has a point. Although reported Covid deaths have been much higher in the booster era, far fewer Covid cases have been receiving mechanical ventilation (the gray line shows the number of ventilators/ECMO secured for Covid patients).
But even if hardly any of them have been struggling for breath on mechanical ventilation, Japan’s elderly have been dying in higher than expected numbers in the booster era. The national figures for December won’t be out until late Feb, but Yokohama (Japan’s second largest city) has already releases its all-cause death numbers for 2022. Somehow I doubt Dr Kamayachi will call for a “thorough analysis” to find out the cause of the increase since August.
All-cause deaths in Yokohama 2016-2022
Although there’s no good news here for Japan’s vaxed-to-the-max elderly, there is for Japan’s medical establishment: high numbers of Covid deaths mean the publicly funded Covid gravy train will keep going. From The Nikkei.
On 11th Jan, experts offered their views on reclassifying Covid-19 under the Infectious Diseases Act. In light of the current situation where the number of reported Covid deaths per day is the highest ever, the experts called for the government to continue to provide a certain amount of financial support to cover treatment and hospitalization costs and for securing hospital beds.
Basically, the government’s selected experts, including Dr. Wakita above, recommend that Covid should be downgraded “gradually”, i.e., medical costs should continue to be covered by public funds rather than health insurance/out-of-pocket payments like every other medical condition. This might seem reasonable. But under the current scheme of Covid support payments, hospitals can be paid ¥436,000 (US$3,370) per day to “secure” a single ICU bed regardless of whether anyone is in it. And overpriced Covid treatments include glorified cold medications like Shinogi’s Xocova.
So let’s recap what the experts have told us. The cause of increased Covid deaths? “Dunno.” Should the government keep showering medical institutions and pharma companies with money? “Absolutely!”
Well, what were you expecting them to say?

Never before have there been massive excess deaths following vaccination.
Never before have there been children, young adults, athletes in their prime, entertainers, dropping dead “cause unknown” following vaccination.
Of course, the cause is known. The leading doctors and medical scientists of our time–which excludes health agency bureaucrats, such as Fauci, who serve as marketing agents for Big Pharma and corrupt, politicized state medical boards and HMOs–have explained why and how the mRNA “vaccines,” which are not vaccines, kill, destroy the immune system, and cause health injuries.
What is not known is why some die immediately after receiving the deadly substance, others a month later, and others remain, so far, alive. Some researchers think the content of the “vaccines” differed by lot, and some think some of the jabs were placebos for the purpose of producing an uninjured cadre to tout the safety of the jabs.
Professor Michel Chossudovsky has collected here — The Covid "Killer Vaccine". People Are Dying All Over the World. It's A Criminal Undertaking - Global Research [1] — a number of videos documenting the widespread sufferings and deaths of the vaccinated. It is not the unvaccinated who are “mysteriously” dropping dead all over the world. It is the vaccinated.
Yet the coverup continues. The western media–a collection of whores–are at work covering up for themselves as well as for Fauci, Biden, Bill Gates, Big Pharma, the FDA, NIH, CDC, and the utterly corrupt and irresponsible medical profession. Big Pharma and the FDA continue to push jabbing babies with the killer vaccine, and there are still parents so utterly stupid and insouciant that they participate in the murder of their own children.
With people all over the world so stupid and so blindly trusting of authority, we can see why the Satanic Bill Gates and Satanic Klaus Schwab are confident that they can succeed in reducing the world population and effecting their Great Reset.
What do I mean when I say Gates and Schwab are Satanic? Think about it this way. From time to time when discussing the subject, someone will say that people can be so awful they can understand why some would want to genocide them. I ask them if they would be willing to push the genocide button, and they say “no.” They understand that they have no right to cause people’s deaths in behalf of their opinion or a climate or ideological agenda. The difference between them and Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab is that Gates and Schwab are willing and eager to push the genocide button. What is so horrifying is that this willingness has acquired a high moral position. Exterminating people has become the way to save the planet.
The perpetrators of this mass murder are confident that their crime is too huge to be recognized as such. Naive populations simply won’t believe that “their” governments would do this to them. No one wants to admit that they executed their own family members and their own children by blindly trusting “authorities” who had announced their genocide agenda in advance.
In the United States only a tiny percentage of the people have any idea what is happening. The time and energy of the population is used up in making ends meet and in entertaining themselves. They fall for one transparent crime after another. Whatever government announces they accept–President John Kennedy’s assassination, Senator Robert Kennedy’s assassination, the Gulf of Tonkin, 9/11, Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction, Covid pandemic, “safe and effective” Covid vaccine. They never learn.
Now they face genocide, and they still haven’t learned.
The perpetrators of mass genocide are still in control.
If it is not genocide, tell me what it is
-when distinguished medical scientists warm in advance about the mRNA “vaccine” and are censored and punished,
-when the inventor of the PCR “Covid test” states that the test does not indicate the presence of the virus and is ignored,
-when the evidence of the harmful effects of the “vaccine” are kept secret by Pfizer and the FDA,
-when medical doctors are prevented from treating Covid with known cures Ivermectin and HCQ,
-when pharmacies refuse to fill doctors’ prescriptions for the cures,
-when illegal and unconstitutional mandates force citizens under threat of loss of job to submit to being injected,
-when no official attention is paid to the massive increase in excess deaths among the vaccinated,
-when the media carries on a deceptive campaign of lies and propaganda?
Americans–indeed the world–are faced with a monstrous criminal enterprise.
Do they have the strength and intelligence to recognize it?
Are they going to do anything about it?

“Omicron subvariant XBB.1.5 now accounts for 73 percent of all sequenced COVID-19 cases in NYC. XBB.1.5 is the most transmissible form of COVID-19 that we know of to date and may be more likely to infect people who have been vaccinated or already had COVID-19,” the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene wrote on Twitter on Jan. 13.
Despite this, the department urged New Yorkers to get vaccinated and receive the updated COVID-19 booster shot, stating that doing so “is still the best way to protect yourself from hospitalization and death from COVID-19, including from these new variants.”
The XBB.1.5 variant is quickly becoming the dominant subvariant in the United States. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that XBB.1.5 accounted for an estimated 43 percent of COVID-19 cases in the country for the week ending Jan. 14.
World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said earlier this month that the subvariant is on the rise in the United States and Europe and has now been identified in more than 25 countries.
The subvariant has now overtaken the BQ.1.1 subvariant, which was first identified in September, and which now accounts for an estimated 28.8 percent of cases in the country, according to CDC data.
XBB.1.5 Unlikely to Increase Severity
Although there has been a surge in XBB.1.5 cases, the WHO has stated that the variant does not have any mutations known to increase the severity of the virus in individuals.
In a risk assessment (pdf) published on Jan. 11, the health body said that XBB.1.5, based on its genetic characteristics and early growth rate estimates, may contribute to a surge in cases around the world but it “does not carry any mutation known to be associated with potential change in severity.”
Barbara Mahon, head of the CDC’s proposed Coronavirus and Other Respiratory Viruses Division, also told CBS News on Jan. 6 that there is no suggestion that XBB.1.5 is more severe than previous strains of Omicron.
The WHO in its risk assessment did, however, note that “the overall confidence in the assessment is low” owing to a lack of data on the subvariant, most of which come from the United States, and said that more data and laboratory testing is needed to know for sure how severe the subvariant is.
The health body also noted that XBB.1.5 is one of the COVID-19 subvariants that is most resistant to antibodies acquired from vaccination or previous infection.
According to the CDC, approximately 666,511,603 vaccine doses have been administered in the United States, of which 268,556,888 people have received at least one dose of the vaccine and 229,359,062 have completed the primary series of vaccinations.
Vaccine Effectiveness Only Lasts 3 Months
Additionally, 15.9 percent of the U.S. population aged 5 and over have received the updated bivalent booster shot.
In an interview with Science News on Jan. 13, infectious diseases specialist Peter Chin-Hong of the University of California, San Francisco, stated that vaccinations are likely to provide just three months of protection against the XBB.1.5 variant of COVID-19.
“The new updated boosters generally work a little better than the old vaccines in terms of overall efficacy and preventing infection. But with these new slippery variants like XBB.1.5 … if you’re looking to prevent infections, even a mild infection, the vaccines are probably going to last maybe three months,” Chin-Hong said.
“But if you’re talking about preventing me from dying or going to the hospital, those vaccines are going to give me a boost of protection for many, many months, probably until next winter for most people. For older people, older than 65, if they’re not boosted today, then it’s a problem,” the infectious diseases specialist added.

I’m finding increased warnings about the immune deficiency caused by merely having Covid. Does anyone else here have the same concern?

This one….from the same Alex Meshkin !
Regarding fungal infections post Covid! His tweet below is in response to a woman who’s husband had/has thrush.
I read that post from her, and it appears as though her husband “thought” he had “allergies”….for 8 days and let it just “run it’s course”….prior to the oral thrush developing.
This is personally intriguing to me. Long story, but what happened to me last year still bothers me because I knew I was sick, but took too long to do a Covid test….it kept coming up negative. I may go into all of the boring details later. Lol.

My wife had covid, not vaxxed, and recently had a break out of shingles, something she has never had before, So I'm wondering if this is covid related and I'm thinking it is. Covid, imho, was designed to act as a bio-weapon so it wasn't just a 'flu'.

I'm sure he has an opinion, but this was just a news release. He usually shares his opinions in interviews. I haven’t found one since the end of December. So we're still waiting.

Emergence of a New Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease: 26 Cases of the Human Version of Mad-Cow Disease, Days After a COVID-19 Injection | International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research
Keywords:

Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, the formerly rare but universally fatal prion disease in humans, normally progresses over several decades before it leads to death. In the Appendix to this paper, we highlight the presence of a prion region in the spike protein of the original SARS-CoV-2, and in all the “vaccine” variants built from the Wuhan virus. The prion region in the spike of SARS-CoV-2 has a density of mutations eight times greater than that of the rest of the spike, and, yet, strangely that entire prion region disappears completely in the Omicron variant. In the main body of our text, we present 26 cases of Creuzfeldt-Jacob Disease, all diagnosed in 2021 with the first symptoms appearing within an average of 11.38 days after a Pfizer, Moderna, or AstraZeneca COVID-19 injectionEmergence of a New Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease: 26 Cases of the Human Version of Mad-Cow Disease, Days After a COVID-19 Injection | International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research

It is. However China likely had 2x more people infected in the past month than our total population. Buckle up

Moderna says RSV vaccine is 84% effective at preventing disease in older adults
Published Tue, Jan 17 20234:05 PM EST | Updated Moments Ago

Key Points
Moderna on Tuesday said its vaccine that targets respiratory syncytial virus is effective at preventing disease in older adults.
The vaccine was 83.7% effective at preventing lower respiratory tract disease, defined as two or more symptoms, in people ages 60 and older, according to the Boston biotech company. It was 82.4% effective at preventing lower respiratory tract disease with three or more symptoms.
No safety concerns have been identified during the clinical trial of the vaccine, according to Moderna. The safety and efficacy data from the trial will be published in a peer-reviewed journal, according to the company. The clinical trial has enrolled about 37,000 people across 22 countries.
Moderna said it plans to file an application for approval by the Food and Drug Administration in the first half of this year. There currently is no FDA-approved vaccine for RSV.
Moderna's stock rose nearly 7% in extended trading.
RSV infections kill between 6,000 and 10,000 older adults every year and result in 60,000 to 120,000 hospitalizations, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The U.S. suffered an unusually severe RSV season in the fall among children and older adults as the public largely stopped practicing public health measures implemented in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, such as masking and social distancing.
Moderna's RSV vaccine uses the same messenger RNA technology as the company's successful Covid shots. The Covid vaccine turned Moderna into a global name and delivered windfall profits, but it remains the company's only commercially available product and demand is fading.
The Boston biotech company faces growing pressure to demonstrate that other products in its pipeline will successfully come to market. Morgan Stanley estimates the market for an adult RSV vaccine is $7 billion to $10 billion.
