I actually worry that its not strict enough, and it may contribute to a delay in mitigating covid transmission. We need to flatten the curve. And now to the vaccine. A new study shows that people who got modernas vaccine still had antibodies three months later. Sounds promising, but what do those results really tell us . It showed that although they had a slight decline over time, they did have elevated levels at three months time period, which is important to understand the longterm efficacy of a vaccine. The other thing that they found was that it activated memory cells, which shows that the body may remember the virus in order to produce new antibodies that if they got reinfected. Dr. Gharahbaghian, that vaccine reportedly 94 effective. But what else can you tell us remains uncertain about the vaccines effectiveness . Its a matter of how long the immunity will last. As we vaccinate more people, thats when we really will know the longterm effect of this vaccine. Dr. Anthony fauci says some older children may be able to get vaccinated beginning in march. Can you discuss the challenges of vaccinating kids and your thoughts on that date he threw out . The goal is definitely to vaccinate everyone and the sooner the better. Of course, theyre going to do it in a tiered approach where it starts with the adult population, then trials can start in schoolaged children and to then see over several months time of the efficacy and safety in that population to then be able to vaccinate all schoolage children. Our thanks to dr. Gharahbaghian. As temperatures go down, were getting some helpful tips on the best way to mask up. Doctors say a mask designed to block the virus is totally different than one used to keep your face warm, and face coverings dont work if they get wet. Also your winter scarf is no substitute for a face mask. Not all masks are created equal. The recommendation is that a mask should have two layers of fabric, and the fabric should be a tight weave. So a scarf is not a tight enough weave to serve as that barrier. And doctors recommend putting on your face mask before your hat and gloves.
