genera | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dotted_and_dotless_I | 00:27 |
xx | well, yeah, but not in the word 'journal' | 00:27 |
de-facto | Klinda, congratz on PCR testing negative between 10th till 19th day, i hope you are feeling better | 00:32 |
Tuvix | Sometimes foreign input can result in odd replacements; you'll see a funkly-looking "i" sometimes when the user is on a Russian keyboard as it's actually a Cyrillic script. Probably not what's going on here, but there are plausable reasons it pops up in traditionally-ASCII venues. | 00:33 |
Klinda | is it big pharma then LjL? | 00:33 |
Klinda | I mean why if I take it for real I have less days with the one that had the booster? | 00:34 |
Klinda | de-facto: seems I have no negative symptoms | 00:34 |
Klinda | but I don't really know how to test it, maybe I try to walk 10 km and see | 00:35 |
de-facto | the level of immunity from infection varies quite a lot, some people get excellent level of antibodies, while some dont get such a good level of antibodies, with vaccination the spread of that distribution is a lot smaller | 00:35 |
Tuvix | I mean, outcomes and how the body reacts is an individual result; statistics are useful in aggregate, but can't predict how a single case will react. Biology is complex, and we're effectively the highest level lifeform on the planet. | 00:35 |
LjL | Klinda, it has been established that infection alone doesn't offer great protection. infection + vaccine does. so they want you to wait 3 months and then get the vaccine. i don't know what happens to people who catch COVID *after* getting the booster, though... | 00:36 |
de-facto | so i guess it may be one reason for assuming timespans for immunity, the ability to predict the immunity level within a certain confidence margin, the broader the initial distribution spreads the more limiting the lower immunity cases influence the majority in that category | 00:37 |
Tuvix | Oh, maybe I missed the question's purpose; if it's about the delay between infection & vaccination, you can in a way think of an infection as another way to "train" the immune system, just in that case with live virus, not a protein that is similar to one presented with the live virus. | 00:37 |
de-facto | yes the best level of immunity indeed is infection combined with vaccination | 00:37 |
Klinda | but is the curret pfizer good for omicron? | 00:38 |
Klinda | or better wait an update one? | 00:38 |
Klinda | will they do? | 00:38 |
de-facto | well didnt you most likely got Omicron infection? | 00:39 |
Klinda | yes I think so | 00:39 |
Klinda | I mean I didn't lose the smell | 00:39 |
Klinda | and the taste | 00:39 |
Brainstorm | New from The Lancet (Online): [Articles] Pandemic preparedness and COVID-19: an exploratory analysis of infection and fatality rates, and contextual factors associated with preparedness in 177 countries, from Jan 1, 2020, to Sept 30, 2021: Efforts to improve pandemic preparedness and [... want %more?] → https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(22)00172-6/fulltext | 00:40 |
de-facto | so then your antibodies against Omicron-alike versions of SARS-CoV-2 are already raised, but maybe not so much against types that look different to Omicron, e.g. the earlier versions such as Alpha, and Delta, so maybe Wuhan-Hu-1 spikes (the ancestor variant) may broaden your immunity in a way that it also covers variants that are more similar to those? | 00:41 |
de-facto | just a thought | 00:41 |
de-facto | that is assuming it was Omicron that you got (which probably is the most likely variant by now in most places) | 00:41 |
de-facto | yet there was the transition period before | 00:42 |
Klinda | I don't know, the pepole with the booster that never took the virus got updated with 1 year | 00:42 |
Klinda | btw I will ask to my medic what he says | 00:43 |
de-facto | yeah think about what is best for your own protection, not so much about status | 00:43 |
de-facto | where are you from again, i forgot | 00:43 |
Klinda | I mean natural defense isn't better than wi the booster? | 00:43 |
Klinda | italy | 00:44 |
de-facto | ah yeah sorry now i remember | 00:44 |
de-facto | and your contamination when did it happen? | 00:44 |
Klinda | 10 th jaunuary | 00:45 |
de-facto | yeah then it was in the middle of the big incidence spike in Italy | 00:45 |
de-facto | https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/italy/ | 00:45 |
de-facto | actually almost in the maximum of it | 00:46 |
Klinda | yeee I was in there xD | 00:46 |
Klinda | -.- | 00:46 |
Klinda | xD | 00:46 |
de-facto | hence if we can assume that big spike in incidence was caused by Omicron (as in all the other places in Europe) it most likely was Omicron then | 00:46 |
Tuvix | I'm not sure offhand about Italy's recommendations, but in the US you need to at minimum be considered fully-recovered from COVID before you'd be eligible for a booster (or initial vaccination, if someone wanted to pursue primary dosing after.) I presume they have similar guidance for you too, but your medical experts would know best. | 00:46 |
Klinda | I did 2 doses + infect + booster I have to do? | 00:47 |
Klinda | 4 doses in the end | 00:47 |
de-facto | oh yeah, you already got vaccinated, yeah then... you already should have good immunity against both, the ancestor strains as well as Omicron | 00:48 |
Klinda | in august I finished the second dose, in january I got infected | 00:49 |
de-facto | i see where you are coming from then, idk if you need booster then, above i assumed you have not seen the vaccine strain | 00:49 |
de-facto | yeah you should have very good immunity by now, against both ancestor versions and Omicron versions | 00:50 |
Klinda | so after 6 months I have to take a booster or I don't have the green pass | 00:50 |
Klinda | that's it | 00:50 |
Tuvix | There seems to be some value in a delay between later doses. I don't really have any useful info for you for your particular case, but note that it's generally not recommended that a booster be given in 2-dose recipients any earlierl than about 3-5 months out (varies a bit depending on who you ask.) I can't speak for what your doctor might say, but I wouldn't worry about racing out to get a booster dose. | 00:51 |
de-facto | yeah id wait for that timespan then, in the summer most likely infections (hopefully) will be somewhat rare | 00:51 |
de-facto | it would make more sense to schedule vaccinations (and boosters) to prepare for the winter seasons, because it will come back (e.g. September, October etc) | 00:52 |
Klinda | so do you think they will get a update version or not? | 00:52 |
Tuvix | It's quite likely, just a matter of time to get it produced and approved. | 00:53 |
de-facto | they will release an Omicron based version, but if you already had that, idk if your benefit from exactly that version is so big. Maybe it will raise (boost) your level against Omicron alike variants, hence also cover offsprings of Omicron that may only be reached by the edges of the variety distribution raised against Omicron (infection and booster vaccination) | 00:54 |
Tuvix | The overall trend has been for prior varients to have limited protection against future varients, but it's both early in our understanding of Omicron, and we have even less ability to predict what the next varient will bring. | 00:56 |
Klinda | btw I feel fine, nothing really changed to my body, but who knows the long term effects? :P maybe I should really think it will be fine and that's it | 00:56 |
de-facto | you are much less likely to develop anything like long covid because you have been vaccinated prior to infection | 00:57 |
de-facto | so you most likely will be just fine indeed | 00:57 |
Klinda | but with the third dose was better if I had it | 00:58 |
Tuvix | Before exposure? Yea, it would have raised the antibody levels further and began to improve cell-memory further. But your 2-doses is still vastly preferred to going into exposure without any defenses. | 00:58 |
Tuvix | The protection against infection isn't as strong as protection against hospitalization or death; that's the main purpose of the vaccines. | 00:59 |
de-facto | it surely is not counter productive to get it, its like "sparring training" for the immune system, but yours already should be quite competent by now i guess | 00:59 |
Tuvix | You may not have been in a particularly high-risk category, but the vaccines *significantly* improved your odds at having a mild case vs. a more serious set of outcomes. | 00:59 |
Klinda | I mean with the third dose the immune systems is not more efficient to kill the virus before so can't do more damage? | 01:00 |
Tuvix | It's largely "too late" to get vaccinated after you've been exposed if that's the question. | 01:00 |
Tuvix | It can help at preventing the _next_ exposure though. But that's also what your infection has done (and is still doing.) | 01:00 |
Klinda | I mean if I was with 3 doses my immune system is not more efficient to kill the virus so there is less damage vs 2? | 01:01 |
de-facto | 3 doses make the immune system more competent to kill the virus, boosting does help | 01:02 |
Tuvix | More or less, yes. All things equal, you want your body to have a robus response. Think of it like an army that's trained very recently, as compared to one that has trained but not for some weeks/months. | 01:02 |
Tuvix | robust* | 01:02 |
Klinda | so yeah I had to take it with the third | 01:02 |
Tuvix | Some army's have "reserve" units. These are units that are not full-time military personell, so they don't train as often. Typically if they are to be deployed in a "real mission" they'll get some extra training before they go. THat training is kind of like what a booster does. | 01:03 |
Klinda | but I can't go back | 01:03 |
Klinda | I didn't have the third early cause Pfizer was sold out, there were only moderna | 01:03 |
Tuvix | BUT, to continue the analogy, if all you have is a "reserve army" unit and you need them right *now* to defend against an attack, they're obviously a lot better than nothing. | 01:03 |
de-facto | yeah right now it won the battle and killed the virus, so a third dose (e.g. with omicron s-protein signature) may remind your immune system later (after some time passed) on how to do that (to omicron based variants) | 01:03 |
Tuvix | Yup, exactly that ^. I'm not offering you any professonal medical opinion, but I'd look at a booster, but maybe not worry about that for a number of weeks or even a couple/few months. | 01:04 |
Tuvix | Maybe an updated vaccine will be avialable by then, or guidance may be more clear as we learn more about this virus and Omicron specifically. Your body is really still "learning" from your recent infection. | 01:04 |
de-facto | March or April | 01:05 |
de-facto | something like that for an Omicron based BioNTech/Pfizer | 01:05 |
de-facto | i personally still hope for multivalent vaccines | 01:05 |
Klinda | but it's also possibile that a third dose will be the same as having 2 doses? maybe in younger like me the immune system remeber well | 01:06 |
de-facto | i want a shot that included s-protein signatures of *all* the variants we have seen so far, so that my immune system gets trained in identifying every offspring of every variant immediately when it wants to begin to replicate | 01:06 |
de-facto | a third dose will boost, in any case, question is at what time (and with what s-protein signature) that makes the most sense (and that depends in individual history) | 01:07 |
Tuvix | Consider that vaccines have appeared, so far (with the one mRNA "style" we have avaiable currently) to produce a more broad protection. Infection with live virus seems to do a decent job at short-term protection against reinfection, but not so good a job at defending against a new varient. | 01:08 |
Klinda | are you happy to get a vaccine after 6 months each time? | 01:08 |
de-facto | yeah why not? with my booster i almost got no side effects, my arm barely hurt (in comparison to first and second) | 01:09 |
Tuvix | In a way the latter is a bit more understandable; the varients arise becuase their mutations were more successful at spreading, likely in part to break-through cases (in both prior-exposures and agianst vaccines.) But the vaccines seem to have provided broader response across varients, although the booster appeared necessary in order to preseve the desired level of effectiveness against severe results. | 01:09 |
de-facto | though infection may also include more epitopes (not only s-protein), so the immunity may be broader, yet the antibodies docking on the spikes are the ones that prevent cell entry (by blocking the docking mechanism) | 01:11 |
de-facto | thats why the vaccines contain spike protein signatures | 01:12 |
de-facto | yet it would be awesome if they included more versions of it, just one version is... boring to the immune system that already knows that particular version | 01:13 |
Klinda | when I had my first dose I had a lot of fear ahaha | 01:14 |
Klinda | with the second I really didn't care | 01:14 |
de-facto | if it gets entertained with more variety of s-proteins, it may get motivated to develop a broader variety of antibodies and also try to promote conserved regions (synergistic effects, e.g. if an antibody is able to dock on all the versions) | 01:14 |
de-facto | i think that this would be quite an improvement | 01:14 |
de-facto | yeah my third Moderna was the mildest, my arm barely hurt | 01:15 |
de-facto | nothing else, no headache no fatigue | 01:15 |
Tuvix | I had 3 Pfizer, and 3rd gave me effectively no side-effects, just a mildly sore arm for 36 hours or so. | 01:16 |
Klinda | my medic when I took the virus said like don't worry mostly likely it will attack the superior respiratory parts | 01:17 |
Tuvix | My first I was a touch light-headed, but frankly I blame my poor planing for that. I was rushed to the appointment due to bad planning earlier in my day, ate a horribly light breakfast, and was probably a bit dehydrated. | 01:17 |
Klinda | and that's it | 01:17 |
Tuvix | I was fine about 20 minutes after the dose, so I think the rushing to the vaccine clinic and standing in the line for half an hour didn't help matters. | 01:17 |
Brainstorm | New from COVID on Twitter: Face The Nation (@FaceTheNation): How has the coronavirus pandemic affected America's children and working families?@margbrennan explores with @ProfEmilyOster tomorrow on our first Facebook live at 12:30 PM, ET.Have questions? Let us know with #AskFTN. pic.twitter.com/ta2Jq0apeK → https://twitter.com/FaceTheNation/status/1488663391019352069 | 01:18 |
de-facto | i hear from many (vaccinated) here that got Omicron that they got a sore throat and some may loose taste/smell for a few days (but not weeks) | 01:18 |
Klinda | maybe they lose smell for the cold | 01:18 |
Klinda | xD | 01:18 |
de-facto | but then it came back very soon (in days) | 01:18 |
Tuvix | Klinda: Right, the vaccine works to allow the body to more quickly respond to the infection, and by a quicker and more robust response, the virus has less chance to multiply and do more damage to various internal parts that have a greater effect. | 01:18 |
Tuvix | It sounds like you had both 2-doses and age on your side. Not that the younger can't be impacted, but it's less likely than say an 80 year old with a less-robust immune system. All of these are factors in your favor. | 01:19 |
de-facto | but then the taste and smell came back very soon (in days) | 01:19 |
de-facto | (not the virus, of course) | 01:19 |
Tuvix | Yes, as you asked earlier you may have done "better" with a booster in addition, but don't forget that you're so much better off than having zero or only a partial priming dose. | 01:20 |
Klinda | we will see after some years what happens | 01:20 |
de-facto | we have to make the best out of it | 01:20 |
de-facto | i quit smoking :D | 01:20 |
Tuvix | It's easy to look back and wish we'd done something else, but all we can do is use the best informaiton we have now and prepare for the future as most practical. | 01:20 |
Klinda | I see a factor of long covid could bethat you suffer from diabetes | 01:21 |
Tuvix | de-facto: Congrats! Pandemic-inspired quit, I take it? | 01:21 |
de-facto | yep | 01:21 |
de-facto | in early 2020 | 01:21 |
Tuvix | Klinda: Possibly, although the data on that is still emerging. In youth in particular (ie: children) that's been reported, although it's also possible infection is merely causing the incidence and markers of diabetes to manifest earlier. | 01:21 |
Tuvix | Some of these interactions may well be that COVID either pronounces or accelerates underlying conditions that cause them to flare up or cause problems earlier than they might have otherwise. | 01:22 |
Tuvix | Quite frankly, the effects of this pandemic are going to be casting long shadows well after the accute phase of the pandemic is over. | 01:22 |
Klinda | btw in the end one has it's own story that's it, it's like you smoke and I die before than you | 01:26 |
Klinda | some after covid get some long-term effects, me for example no.. | 01:27 |
Tuvix | Sure, an outlier doesn't mean the overall statistics are wrong. I could die crossing the road tomorrow, but that won't stop me from looking both ways first just to improve my odds I make it safely! | 01:27 |
Klinda | ora at least anything that looks suspicious | 01:27 |
Brainstorm | New from NPR Science: A small island nation has cooked up not 1, not 2 but 5 COVID vaccines.

de-facto | i think SARS-CoV-2 may have some influence on beta-cells in pancreas (e.g. selectively infecting them or such) | 01:30 |
de-facto | so it may make sense, though a competent (trained by vaccination and recovery) immune system may prevent such deep penetration and multi-organ spread of the pathogen | 01:31 |
Tuvix | I'm not familiar with that research offhand, although I've certainly seen hints that various organs my be affected by or even accrue virus or at least be damaged by them. Ideally a well-armed immune defense remains the goal to limit the impact of any spread where it's harder for the body to deal with it. | 01:31 |
Klinda | but it will not recover it after? | 01:32 |
Klinda | I mean as the immune system destory the enemy | 01:32 |
Klinda | the body will also restore all | 01:32 |
Klinda | or at least a good one | 01:32 |
de-facto | thats a good question, if the immune response against SARS-CoV-2 is not so efficient it may also raise some auto-antibodies (e.g. targeting structures of the body) leading to inflammation etc | 01:33 |
de-facto | speculation: that may be one reason vaccination may help because it directs the immune system towards targeting the s-protein structures | 01:34 |
de-facto | e.g. lowering the risk of anto-antibodies and thereby all those long lasting symptoms | 01:34 |
Klinda | tomorrow I will walk 10 km | 01:36 |
