      An interesting discussion from @dylanhmorris a few weeks ago, as the corollary recommendation matches the structure of global vaccine supply *and* provides increased protection (For example: AZ prime + mRNA booster). https://twitter.com/dylanhmorris/status/1399813827093540867 …

      Adding discussion by @michaelzlin on something important. Even if increased symptomatic breakthrough cases with Delta don't threaten the vaccinated as much with severity, the issue of transmission to others (more likely if there are symptoms) is important.https://twitter.com/michaelzlin/status/1407060029786689538 …

      The 40% expected breakthrough in J&J recipients exposed to Delta is a big contrast to the 12% expected for RNA recipients. And recall J&J recipients can and should be going about their daily business the same as RNA recipients, e.g. dining in restaurants https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.22.21257658v1 …

          This is the question being pondered:https://twitter.com/michaelzlin/status/1407060027781832707 …

          At the same time, for J&J we have the largest need in terms of boosting efficacy against the upcoming Delta wave, or even further variants. The 40% of exposed people getting sick and being able to pass on to others is worth preventing if we can.

          Is it 12% breakthrough infections (delta) w mRNA vaccines? Or is it 21% per this recent study: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)01358-1/fulltext … Pfizer 92% for alpha, 79% for delta. AstraZeneca 73% for alpha, 60% for delta

          Replying to @selise @zeynep and

          Ah, difference is the 12% # is for symptomatic disease. The 21% is for breakthrough infection. So we still don't know # for J&J breakthrough infection?
