Nuvaxovid

This year, there are also options for those who prefer not to receive an mRNA vaccine.

Limited doses of Nuvaxovid will be available.

Dr. Henry also reminds us all to practice good hygiene.

Frequent handwashing and staying home when feeling unwell can make a big difference in slowing the spread.

Yeah.

And so obviously that thing rocketed, and I was sitting on Novavax at five, and it went to 55, and I just watched it.

And same thing with EHR, EAHR, and it went to five to 50.

I can go on and on.

They reduce your chances of dying from it.

And now there's actually a COVID vaccine called Nuvaxovid.

It's from the Novavax company, and they make the COVID spike protein in a vat, and then you get administered the COVID spike protein so you don't get the mRNAs.

So there's actually a true COVID vaccine now, and it's effective just like the others.

Total of 1,049 COVID-19 vaccine doses were administered to 586 adults enrolled between March 2022, September 2024.

Um, so local reactogenicity ranged from ni- 47%, um, I'm gonna give these common names, so the Novavax Nuvaxovid, to 90% with Moderna.

And then what about systemic reactogenicity? 69% with the Nuvaxovoid, the Novavax, um, to 85%, um, with the Pfizer shot, um, the Pfizer-BioNTech shot.

Severe reactogenicity events were rare.

Um, react- reactogenicity events, as we see, were common, but rarely severe.

Um, and it looks like we get a little bit, little bit less with that Novavax shot, as we've talked about, compared to the mRNA vaccines.

Yeah, about half as many reactogenicity's, right?

Yeah, yeah.

Right.

And it's like the Novavax for SARS-CoV-2, right? For people who didn't want the, the reactogenicity.

For sure.

But, um, I didn't have any-

I actually initially was getting just the flu.

And then I saw that it was the Novavax COVID vaccine.

I've got a big conference coming up.

Decided to go ahead and do it.

And they finally have the Nuvovaxovid, it's called.

It's the... newest one Novavax created a spike protein in the laboratory they use the same mRNA technology but they do it in a vat and so they use mRNA and create the spike protein and then they give you the spike protein instead of the mRNA And so you're getting what is in the same concept of the flu vaccine.

And all the previous vaccines were proteins or lipids, other things that were extracted from the organism that we were trying to do the immunization for.

And so...
