      ALERT Very strong study out of Boston raises deep concerns about #COVID19 #vaccines (@pfizer & @moderna_tx ) versus some of the variant #SARSCoV2 mutants. This is a large, exhaustive study. The highlights are: MOREhttps://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.02.14.21251704v1 …

      2/ Taking just one dose of either vaccine? VERY bad idea. A 30-fold lower virus-fighting capacity with 1 dose. The UK B.1.1.7 variant isn't a vax problem. BUT the P1 (Brazil), P2 (Japan) variants --20-fold decrease in vax efficacy. The SoAfrican (B1351) -- 100-fold decrease. MORE

          3/ What we are looking at is "vaccine resistance" -- it's akin to antibiotic resistance that can be so strong in some bacteria that they are 100% incurable infections. In this study, the spectre of #COVID19 #vaccines being rendered useless looms -- NOT assured, but ominous.

          Yes. It means we have a moving target. The current public health steps are good. The ones we will be able to take in 2-3 months, by starting scientific work now, will be better.

          How does that square with this research that the NYTimes said today suggests one dose of Pfizer is robust...? https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)00448-7/fulltext …

          This is badly worded, and neutralization titers do not linearly translate into efficacy, but it's an important point: The drop in efficacy from only getting 1 dose versus the full 2 doses is greater for the P.1, P.2, & B.1.351 variants. The bottom line: You must get BOTH doses!

          Vax efficiency is not equivalent to antibody reduction. Jesus, this is straight up misinformation.
