1500 looks to be a normal sample size for pediatric trials, actually on the high side according to the graph there.

It is going to be fascinating to see what happens with that high vaccination low natural immunity combo in Oz. Super happy the vax rate is so high, so fast. Man things looked dire just the other day it seems like with delta introduced and barely breaking into double digits vaxxed.
Meanwhile we spin our wheels so the right can work it's magic getting enough madmen lined up together to elect a madman. So tragic.

Our state is mandated for 100% of the kids wearing masks all the time they are indoors during the school day. Some districts are fighting it of course. They also offered school districts free weekly Covid 19 testing of the students and teachers, employees, etc. "Just 396 schools signed up between mid-August and Sept. 30, according to the Department of Health. That’s out of more than 5,000 charter, private, and public schools statewide."

Florida teachers quitting in droves.

Apparently Desantis won't even let them quarantine kids who test positive.

read it -
and many of the responses -
published 21May2021 -
I appreciate the luxury of the intellectuals who can wax nostalgic about history while offering no solutions -
we are limited by many things, not the least of which ( I believe to be ) human nature -
advances have been made -
I marvel how quickly three vaccines were developed that I believe have greatly limited the number of deaths from covid - at least in the 'industrialized' countries of the world ;
another test will be If we develop systems to deliver Vaccination to the world ( there are those - and there are More than few - who feel no obligation ) --
there are several in the pages of this thread who have worked diligently to see that we have information that could help reduce the spread of this deadly disease - that If we were willing and able to set selfishness aside and think of coronavirus and covid for the betterment of our communities and society would allow us to move toward population immunity.
My thanks to LSL, MUnicorn, Multi- and others who are dedicated to finding a Solution - Thank you.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
the pandemic does not speak - But
we Could learn from History.
Vaccination. ... please. (?)
( and for gosh sakes, it is Not a 'jab' - it is a vaccination injection. all of this casual ( 'conversation' ) just cheapens what should be seen as the great investment it is to end this deadly disease - Please. ! )
respectfully. tj

Increased risk for COVID-19 breakthrough infection in fully vaccinated patients with substance use disorders in the United States between December 2020 and August 2021
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wps.20921
Heavy marijuana users who are also vaccinated may be more susceptible to breakthrough cases of COVID-19, a new study found.
The study, published last Tuesday in World Psychology, found that those with a substance use disorder (SUD) — a dependence on marijuana, alcohol, cocaine, opioids and tobacco — were more likely to contract the coronavirus after receiving both of their vaccination shots.
Those without an SUD saw a 3.6 percent rate of breakthrough infections, compared to a 7 percent rate in those with an SUD.
At 7.8 percent, those with marijuana use disorder were most at risk for breakthrough infections, the study found.
Among other substances, the risk disappeared when considering issues such as underlying health conditions and socioeconomic status.
The difference has not been linked directly to marijuana use but could be linked to the behavior of those dependent on marijuana.

Anecdotally or by conjecture it seems that anyone with more efficient and powerful lungs might be a better host for the virus to take up residency in.. Be it a weed smoker who can take huge hits and hold them a long time or an athlete with a super efficient pulmonary system. Now the latter might also have a superior cardio system to send those white soldiers around to fight like hell once those nasty things take root.. But the a more powerful air exchange system is probably going to suck in more viral particles per breath than someone who's diaphragm is surrounded with 150 pounds of fat.

What is the problem, altasnob ?
your (rhetorical) question was, "are they smoking crack? " regarding the decision to restrict the use of Moderna vaccination -
My response had nothing to do with the use of recreational drugs in society -
my response was to your questions about the restriction of the use of Moderna vaccination --
but apparently your question was not about Why 'nordic' countries are restricting the use of Moderna
( I posted relevant links I could find to that yesterday ( - namely that Sweden also has data they believe shows myocarditis associated with a second dose of Moderna's vaccine ( the data itself is not yet detailed ) ) )
I apologize for failing to see your broader issues, and I apologize for my failure ask for clairification of your (rhetorical) questions -
I apologize that my comments to your (rhetorical) questions(,)
caused a problem necessitating you misrepresent my post -
with due respect. skiJ
and I will be glad to try to clarify my post(s) --
recreational drug use by government officials may be one of the factors that contribute to governmental policy decisions, but
I continue to believe elected or appointed officials will Not "acknowledge" it to be a "factor" in the decision...Last edited by skiJ; 10-11-2021 at 05:30 PM.
