Covid-19, second dose, vaccine coursing through my veins like an avalanche coming down the mountain. All good so far although unlike the first dose this injection was not painless.
New findings suggest the Janssen/Johnson and Johnson COVID-19 vaccine can reduce the risk of an immunized person unknowingly passing along the virus to others.
The single-dose vaccine reduces the risk of asymptomatic transmission by 74% at 71 days compared with placebo, according to documents released today by the US Food and Drug administration.
I'm waiting to hear from our County Health doc as to whether I should get dose #2 or leave it for someone else. I have a feeling he'll say to get the shot.

Congrats!
Kind of hope I’ll get mine by June. I’m in between the, got 1 issue not 2 and I’m only 62.
And latest word is that we will probably need a booster shot late this year or early next year.

My youngest builds refrigerated trailers. One of their customers in Arizonaârush ordersâis using theirs to hold bodies because they've run out of space in morgues and funeral homes.

The articles you link to contain the answers to your questions. Are you disputing those answers? posing them rhetorically? just trolling?
Do you have alternative answers of your own? I mean...I don't really care—the answers already available from credible sources suffice for me—but at some point I'll probably end up arguing with someone like you when there are actual consequences and I could use the practice.
A nation numbed by misery and loss is confronting a number that still has the power to shock: 500,000.
Roughly one year since the first known death by the coronavirus in the United States, an unfathomable toll is nearing â the loss of half a million people.
No other country has counted so many deaths in the pandemic. More Americans have perished from Covid-19 than on the battlefields of World War I, World War II and the Vietnam War combined.
The milestone comes at a hopeful moment: New virus cases are down sharply, deaths are slowing and vaccines are steadily being administered.
But there is concern about emerging variants of the virus, and it may be months before the pandemic is contained.
Each death has left untold numbers of mourners, a ripple effect of loss that has swept over towns and cities. Each death has left an empty space in communities across America: a bar stool where a regular used to sit, one side of a bed unslept in, a home kitchen without its cook.
The living find themselves amid vacant places once occupied by their spouses, parents, neighbors and friends â the nearly 500,000 coronavirus dead. (...)
For the evening news, this was a cute animal story with a happy ending. For certain biologists and veterinarians around the world, it was a small seismic tremor, the latest in a series, that reminded them of some ominous, little-recognized possibilities related to our pandemic event, which has already been tectonic.
Covid-19 is a zoonosis, meaning a disease produced by a virus or other pathogen that has spilled into humans from an animal. The animal of origin this time, as all the world knows, was almost certainly a bat. Scientists use another fancy term for when the spilling goes back, or onward, from a human to some nonhuman animal: anthroponosis.
Thereâs been a smattering of news accounts over the past year about anthroponotic transmission of SARS-CoV-2: human into mink on the fur farms of Denmark, resulting in rampant spread and cullings by the millions; human into tigers and lions at the Bronx Zoo in New York; human into snow leopards at the Louisville Zoo in Kentucky; human into another tiger at the zoo in Knoxville, Tenn.
Laboratory studies have shown that domestic cats also are highly susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection and can transmit it to other cats; dogs are less susceptible, and the virus doesnât replicate as well within them. The American Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reminds people to practice âhealthy habitsâ with their pets. Better for you â and better for them, since you are probably more likely to give the virus to your dog or your cat than to receive it from them.
