    Covid-19 is far more contagious and deadly than the flu.

    When a vaccine is 90-95% effective that means that 5-10 out of 100 people will not be protected.

    Infection does not protect as well or as long as the vaccine.

    Except he doesn't. He gives advice given current circumstances. When circumstances change the advice might change as well.

    I've yet to see any evidence of Fauci lying.

    Got my first shot of Moderna yesterday. Arm is a bit sore around the injection site, but otherwise, no problem.

    Got second shot yesterday. Took myself to dinner. Weird taking off mask in a public place. Prosecco, avocado and blood orange salad, rib steak, potato cakes, chimichurri vegetables and ice cream sundae. I knew combination of alcohol and ice cream would wreck my system but hey, special occasion. Took some steak home, tomorrow's lunch.

    Arm a bit sore today but Shingrix was far worse. Put my got vaccinated sticker on the door next to I voted sticker.

    No. It's far more contagious than the flu for everybody.

    I've seen little reliable evidence that mortality rates for the flu are as high as covid-19 for people under 70.

    That was an editorial.

    Early on there was less information. Being wrong, and then correcting oneself when more data are available, is called science.
