You think? Why not Moderna?

One would hope so. They just halted the AstraZenica trial in children.
I saw that somewhere in the US they were inviting pregnant women to become vaccinated. I don't remember which vaccine. They wanted to see if the baby would be born with immunity.
> Next will be babies age 6 months to age 5. Right now those from age 16 and up are getting vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine. In this state no parental permission is needed.
Interesting. Which state?
> In retrospect I should have gotten the Pfizer vaccine so much more protective than J&J.
Huh. Why do you like Pfizer more than Moderna?
> In the children's trial it's l00% protective.
Yes, but you aren't a child.
> Astra Zeneca it's now admitted that clots do exist and trying to find out why.
Mmm. I find it... Disingenuous that they say they don't know why. I mean... I'm sure there is a lot to learn about some particular features... But I don't get the feeling they are being forthright about this, at all...> One theory is that since occurring in younger females those under some say 30 but I've read 50 also that hormones and birth control pills could be a factor.
There are only a few people who have been affected by the clot. They werent' all women. I don't think the affected guys were on HRT (estrogen or progesterone)...
It is not a good look that different countries have limited AstraZenica in different ways. Saying that they won't use it in x age bracket anymore but it is still avaiilable to others.
I think Oxford lags... Ethically.
