Vaccinated kids half as likely to get Omicron, but protection fades fast — study – The Times of Israel

Israeli children who were vaccinated against the coronavirus are catching the Omicron variant at less than half the rate of their unvaccinated peers, according to new research released late Wednesday. The study, thought to be the first-of-its kind, is a rare bright spot for Israel as it contends with a massive wave of infections sweeping across the country. As of Wednesday evening, nearly 400,000 Israelis had active COVID infections, representing over 4 percent of the entire population, with 60,000 to 70,000 new cases being added daily. The research looked into children aged 5-11, a group that became eligible for vaccines in late November, and found that the vaccines offered strong protection against coronavirus variants, especially in the first few months after being administe...

Were Facing a Myopia Epidemic, Scientists Say. Heres Why – ScienceAlert

Scientists are warning of an emerging 'epidemic' of myopia or near-sightedness, having observed sharp increases in the adult onset of myopia among late baby boomers. Based on data collected from 107,442 participants in the extensive Biobank program in the UK, people born in the late 1960s are 10 percent more likely to be near-sighted than people born three decades earlier.   The biggest leap was in individuals who experienced their vision changes later in life, although among those with child-onset myopia, the number of severe cases doubled over the same period. The condition is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, including increased screen time – though the study also finds evidence that these are trends that can be changed with the right publ...

Duke study: If you got J&J vaccine, switch to Moderna or Pfizer for booster – WRAL News

By Joe Fisher, WRAL reporter If you received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, new research shows you are better off switching brands for your booster. The Duke study comes one month after the CDC flat out recommended the two mRNA vaccines over the J&J shot. Nearly a half million people in North Carolina have gotten vaccinated with the single-dose J&J shot. But new research from Duke University shows J&J recipients who mix their vaccines – and get boosted with Pfizer or Moderna instead of a second J&J shot – have 10 times the level of antibodies against omicron. "We expect the boost with the J&J vaccine is still going to be very effective. Probably not as effective as the boost with the mRNA va...
