Covid-2019 - 2021-10-20

Summary: 

In "Recommended Reading," the emotional rollercoaster of vaccines continues. A British study says the Pfizer booster "is 95.6% effective against Covid." Will we ever learn? What does "against Covid" mean? Against getting infected at all -- or just against dying? And how long will it stay effective? Crickets. Oh, and in the 10,000 person trial, they controlled for underlying conditions and demographics, but how do they control for real-world risk exposure? They just claim it was "generally consistent." How do they even know? These vaccines are miracles, no doubt about it. But even miracles can be over-hyped (they already have been once).
