Bivalent Booster Efficacy

Bivalent Booster Efficacy
A study conducted from September 14th to November 11th, 2022 looked at the bivalent booster efficacy. They measured absolute vaccine efficacy (aVE) and relative vaccine efficacy (rVE). Let's review this data.

    My sister got the bivalent shot at the end of September and was very ill for 6 weeks with what she called RSV. It took a double dose of antibiotics to finally get better. I find it very coincidental that she got a severe illness right after the shot. I haven't had any shots and have had covid. So far I haven't been ill since February, when I had omicron. I take quercetin, vitamins D3 and C and zinc every day. I walk several miles most days and eat healthy foods.

How low is the rate that we are achieving a 50% reduction from for a very short period of time? The CDC is suggesting the bivalent booster if it has been 2 months of more since the last booster, so 60 days? About 6 boosters a year? Really?

    The big factor of unknown, which renders the whole study nonsense, is the level of immunity acquired by natural infections. Younger folks are typically less worried of Covid and therefore caught more Covid infections as the elderly, i.e. it's likely not a higher vaccine efficacy that protects younger folks, but the natural immunity from previous infections.

    Using titers of antibodies is a Proxy for the value of the vaccine. It is not a true measure of the efficacy of the vaccine and we don't really know the correlation between antibody titers and the efficacy of the vaccine. Consequently, this study has limited value in understanding the true efficacy. To use an extreme example, if the antibodies are only potent for the ancestral strain, it is of little value. Yes, the bivalent is supposed to give antibodies to the more recent strains, but that has not been proven. Furthermore, in previous talks, Dr Been has shown studies where the body reacts to the vaccines by just producing the old antibodies, not the new antibodies. Even if we assume Antibody Titers is a good proxy for efficacy the study shows the value is limited and we know all of the boosters have proven to be short-lived in value. All-in-all, this is not a ringing endorsement of the bivalent booster

I have also noted when looking at case numbers etc (+ve test results) from some sites that the first age bracket may be as wide as 16-49 or wider, while the other age brackets may be in ten year spans. I would think this would give a distorted view of effects in the younger age groups, and could also be a way of hiding/manipulating data.

I feel it's just another weapon in the arsenal of fear tactics. I'm sure it is a condition that medically exists and has a scientific explanation, but I would bet a lot of money that it is a concept present with many other common illnesses.

    I regularly use povidone-iodine nasal spray - caught covid for the first time last month: my only symptoms were aches and pains for 2-3 days and NO sore throat or other upper respiratory type symptoms. Perhaps, the virus was unable to take root in the airways and the aches and pains can be attributed to my immune system response. Of course, this is just my theory, nonetheless, I will continue with my regime in preference to the boosters 🤞

    I'm 64 years old, good health, no shots. I've used povidone-iodine spray/drops two times, not as a prophylactic, but as early treatment. For a sinus infection, it cut my sick time in half, and it stopped progression of a cold in its tracks. I'll always have it on hand and use it only as needed. I also take vitamins D and C, Quercitin, NAC, K2 (MK-7), zinc, multi-vitamin. Regular consumption of natural anti-inflammatories (food, spices etc). Have not had SARS CoV-2 that I am aware of. Everyone should have povidone-iodine on hand. The spray I used was CofixRX.

    Right…That’s my question. What viruses are you talking about? HIV is also going around “in my community”. But it’s not something I can just catch walking down the street. In terms of omicron, this has the possibility of impacting my life because of how contagious it is. I’m Vax injured and need to be updated. I rely on Dr been to understand my chances of being infected, and to find things to talk to my doctor about to try new therapies.

Makes a 0.5% dilute solution.* Nasal mister/spray bottles are available from Amazon or drug store. Two pumps in each nostril per application, with spray bottle held at 45-degree angle. * Allergic reactions possible but rare.

    The use of term relative vaccine efficacy seems incorrect. If efficacy has gone down to 10% and RVE is 50%, then the efficacy is effectively down to 15% which is a 50% increase relative to the declined 10% efficacy. Instead of giving words, just give math because words can be ambiguous. And unvaccinated may or may not have been infected and change in immunity from a vaccination will be different. Also, why didn’t they compare vaccinations of the original vaccine with the bivalent? Forget efficacy and antibodies since the vaccine only provides immunity against the spike, and it’s not the spike that drives severity for those who are not immunocompromised, it’s other proteins in the virus.

    Dr Been. I have taken the perspective that it only takes me minutes to get a vaccination, and its simply the least I can do to help interrupt the chain of transmission as we live through this pan/endemic time. 50% is far better than some flu shots. If we all did what we needed to do in a perfect world, this bug would be a non-issue at this time.
