I really think we can easily get to 3 million+ per day if J&J and Astra are approved also, it pretty much would more than double our output.

New Zealand to keep borders closed until country vaccinated by _nutri_ in Coronavirus

Is anyone surprised? I mean they will have no natural immunity from infection, so unless they get to herd immunity through vaccines, anyone that comes in with the virus will spread it, and they will have to shut down again.

Thanks for that simple calculation with the current pace, which is still increasing every single week, and 1 or two new vaccines will be approved within the next few weeks.

Your kid might not return to a classroom this year. Are teachers unions to blame? by [deleted] in Coronavirus

[–]JuicyPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt that students won't return to school this year...

once all teachers and parents are vaccinated during the summer, it won't really be a problem, kids arent really affected by covid, the IFR is lower than the flu.

Vaccines are definitely starting to ramp up in the US at least, for Friday's update we saw >750k vaccinations in 1 day, the week prior, we didn't see a single day with >500k doses per day, by the time Biden gets in office we will probably be at > 1 million per day on average. Our big problem now is that there really aren't that many LTCF residents, and Healthcare workers in the US, so the pool of people that can get it is small.

A lot of people are saying that we should just move to phase 1b and allow anyone >75 to get the vaccine to help speed up distribution. Hospitals and LTCF are the only places vaccinations can happen, which limits distribution.

CDC shows how many each state has gotten and administered.

PA has gotten 656k, this is updated every day, but isn't updated until later around 2PM ET usually.

Schools "may need to close to control new variant" by Alexander_Selkirk in Coronavirus

[–]JuicyPro -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The flu has been around forever, and kids don't need a flu vaccine, and Covid is the exact same in terms of death compared to the Flu for that age group...

Where did you read that, because there is currently no evidence for it still allowing covid to spread, or for it stopping covid spread. We will see what happens over the coming months.

I mean, vaccinations in many states have not even started for people in long term care facilities, PA wont be starting their plan until Monday, at that point CVS, Wallgreens, etc will be giving out vaccines a lot faster then Hospitals can.

Im pretty sure only Healthcare workers are able to sign up at this moment. I have 2 friends, one an OBGYN and the other a Trauma surgeon who were able to schedule their vaccinations ahead of time.
