gottlieb doing his talking a billion miles an hour thing right now and some stuff that has me horned from it:
- In Sep the Gov will have research data showing doses of Moderna/Pfizer (maybe other non MRNA types?) can be mixed and matched at will and it is actually good
- Also in Sep the Gov will have data showing the positive performance of the lower dose Moderna booster (50 mcg?)
- 8 months for the booster was no magic number but it works because they anticipate the above and it's also before the hard winter. 6, 8, etc. months doesn't really matter in his opinion. Booster should be very, very beneficial for everyone.
- Data showing the small window between the first two doses may have kept some of the immune response down. ie. Pfizer could have gotten a bigger immune response at 21 days instead of 14. Lesson learned there.
