what works, what doesn t work. what are we still in this thing? let s start with the first one, which is actually the vaccines do work. but they work differently than you may have been told. here s how they work. they are 90% effective. i mean 90% at keeping you out of the hospital much. from keeping from you getting the severe illness. that s been studied in the united kingdom, here in the united states. the cdc finally came through with that data. kaiser permanent, 90%. i had a example in op-ed dr. james hodges from texas way over weight 67 years old e got covid despite having the two shots and then he got omicron despite having had the booster. you mate say wait a minute, the vaccine didn t work except he is in a very high risk group. he never ended up in the hospital and with omicron he had a very, very mild case so the vaccine works. steve: absolutely. for people who got the shots. 12,000 people died last week. those are people who didn t get the shot and they died of omicron, r
around south africa? will it take to the world stage? here s what we know so far. it doesn t even have a name yet, one of those greek letters, because it s not officially a variant of concern or interest, so it s called b.1.1.529. the problem is it more than 30 mutations in the spike protein. that s what researchers say. it s an important part of the virus, how it does its work to get into our cells. the vaccine is designed to work on the spike protein. if there are too many variations in that protein in too many places, that could be bad news for the vaccine. the uk, japan, germany and other countries have already restricted travel from south africa. when variants have come along, say delta, the vaccine didn t work quite as well against delta as it did against previous versions of the virus, but it did still work. that s why it s so important to get vaccinated and to get boosters. let s listen to what dr. anthony
well for them and so they can take this sort of in place of a vaccine. not as good as a vaccine but if the vaccine didn t work for them, this is something that they can try instead. so a lot of doctors we found in our investigation did not even know about antibodies. they didn t recommend them to their patients even when they qualified for them. and then once patients do somehow manage to find out about them, many hospitals are only doing a handful of treatments. we talked to one major medical center that is treating two people per day with antibodies. even at the height of the delta surge. they were only treating two patients a day whereas other hospitals say, look, we know this can be tough. it has to be given by an intravenous drip or by shots. there s a nursing shortage. but these hospitals have made it their goal. we re going to offer monoclonal antibodies and they do manage to do it large scale. elizabeth cohen, thanks. let s bring in dr. paul offitt, director of the vaccine
