So, besides Xeljanz being used for treatment of treatment of Covid pneumonia there is nothing out there I can find regarding the impact of a booster shot with a google search of ra+delta variant+ covid. Currently, vaccinated individuals account for 9-11 % (depending on what you read) of people contracting covid.
Anyway, just yesterday I wrote about my experience with the vaccine, prompted by the glut of news stories regarding the Delta variant and the increase of cases. Furthermore, Pfizer is building a Delta variant specific booster and is saying after 6 months there is a drop in efficacy. At the same time experts are saying a third shot should be sufficient for a long period of time.
Here is the deal, get vaccinated, get the boosters, get it get it get it. Seriously? How is this even a discussion…unfortunately it seems that some politicians and news outlets are still pushing freedom from oppression and the government cant make me do it. I am all about freedom as long as it doesn’t intrude on my freedom. And a highly contagious diseases like polio, the measles, rubella and others have long been forgotten due to vaccines just like the ones for Covid.
Frankly, it is shameful to politicize this life threatening issues IMHO and it is all the more reason for us, those with autoimmune diseases to ensure we do everything we can to protect ourselves and our families. GO.GET, VACCINATED!
