China Corona Virus Outbreak

[H1Tman]

Hindi ko pa rin napa booster mga seniors. I can't decide kung sa Makati or Nayong Pilipino drive thru. I want Pfizer din kasi my UF told me her Doctor said safest booster ang Pfizer. How will I know which of the sites have Pfizer

Sa Nayong Pilipino afaik is Moderna vaccine only.

Better sa Makati na lang kayo. Makakapili naman, marami ng stock ngayon. Just to be sure, ask when you get there if Pfizer is available. Senior naman sila priority.

Thanks everyone!

Makati na lang kami for booster. Now I'm thinking if I should go to the coliseum or one of the malls. I'll wait until the 3rd or 4th week of Feb when the numbers are predicted to go down pre Omicron surge baka mas konti pa lalo nagpapa booster.

H1Tman did you get boosted na? where?

Walang effect yung vaccines in the upper respiratory tract where Omicron enter and thrives. IgA antibodies in the saliva and upper respiratory lining gets little or no benefit from vaccines...

I wasn't too hopeful naman with these 1st gen vaccines, but I'm satisfied with the inactivated whole virion platform of my primary series (Coronavac). Kahit original strain pa yun, my base objective lang naman was to buy some time for the immune system to at least analyze the whole virus, rather than encounter the pathogen (or its descendants) later as a "UFO".

I didn't bother much about the efficacy, or even the ability to prevent infection (symptomatic or not), although that would have been a plus. Ma-alter lang yung course of the disease, or blunt it somewhat to something a healthy adult's body can manage like the common cold or flu.

Even if COVID-19s descendants are more infectious and remarkably different from the wild strain na, it's like comparing the movies "Independence Day" and "Independence Day: Resurgence" (Independence Day II). During the second film, the humans weren't so surprised and helpless, they even had some reverse engineered alien tech - although at significant disadvantage pa rin though (mother ship easily fought off defenses).

Call first or check the LGU website for the booster location.
childrens 5-11 yrs old started being vaccinated today which included some LGU vaccine locations in makati.
Madami tao in those areas and maiingay.

it would seem, that those who were previously infected with covid, and subsequently vaccinated, showed significantly higher mucosal IgA levels than those who did not get previously infected prior to vaccination.

Yup, that was mentioned in the study... Getting an infection produces the needed antibodies response...

In SN subjects IgA were boosted after the second dose, reaching higher concentration compared to the SP group. This may be explained by the fact that previous virus exposure might first elicit mucosal IgA response similarly to other viral infections, rather than systemic immunity. Consistently with this hypothesis, it was reported that in infected individuals mucosal IgA response inversely correlated with symptom severity, being particularly abundant in asymptomatic COVID 19 patients, reinforcing their role in controlling virus penetration in the body.

Yikes. I'll wait until the end of February na lang. Mas magulo nga with kids, that's double the amount of people because of the adults accompanying the children.

Yes, booster c/o company for employees and dependents (Astra Zeneca).

If you follow Mayora Abby on twitter or FB, she posts vax area capacity status regularly within the day.

We went for the drive thru vaccination in Nayong Pilipino since its convenient. Sit in the car for 1-2 hours until its your turn instead of waiting outside. People from Metro Manila are used to sitting in their cars for hours at a time anyway.

I heard on the news that they will use a different location for kids. Hindi nila pagsasamahin. This is to avoid confusion, like adult dose maiturok sa kid.

i think first time mainstream media gave airtime to someone from CDCPh (concerned doctors and citizens ph)

narinig ko yesterday

re vaccinating 5 to 11 yr olds

i think many parents are concerned and the issue is popular enough for a non-mainstream opinion to be heard

Sa US, atat na atat alisin mga COVID restrictions.

pero kahit pababa na cases nila tumataas ang deaths

sa lagay na yan it's omicron pero dami kano namamatay

Feedback so far I've heard about this is mahaba daw pila (that was a few wks ago, during the height of the Omicron surge).

OT: The green car in the middle, looks like one of those old Toyota Crowns, the Blue pickup, a 5th gen Mazda B
-`La lang

Kapatid ko pumunta sila 2 or 3 weeks ago 4pm sila dumating surprisingly pang 3 lang sila sa pila for pfizer.

Personally I will err on the side of caution, the end is in sight ayaw ko kung kailan patapos na saka mahawa.

Swerte nila kay Omicron, naging significant ulit sila. If Delta was still the prevailing variant... kailangan pa rin vaxx lahat ng tao.

Even Bill Maher admits that kids have 99.98% covid survivability...

since the adult market is maxed out (18 yr old up)

12 to 17 tinurokan narin

5 to 11 tinuturokan na

what's left?

The blue truck looks more of a Nissan Frontier (D22).

The green more like a Russian model car.

The red one is a Tata hatchback.
