📍BREAKING—At last—new data on 2-doses of Johnson & Johnson's #vaccine (doses 56 days apart) is 94% effective against symptomatic #COVID19, thus comparable to Moderna/Pfizer. And 100% effective against severe COVID. Booster for 1 dose works well too. 🧵https://t.co/3nPkodOjuG pic.twitter.com/DizjWt9NYX

I'm so glad to see that Pfizer has data to submit for their vaccine for 5-11 year olds. But any strong assertions about safety, such as for low incidence side-effects like myocarditis, cannot made from a trial of ~1500 children.

BREAKING NEWS: Pfizer releases results of 5-11 year old trial for its vaccine. 2-dose 10 microgram regimen (Pfizer uses 30 mcg for 12 and up) administered 21 days apart (sigh, we now know we need longer duration between doses for better effectiveness)https://t.co/43MHnlZgqg

We reviewed 14 studies of persisting symptoms following #COVID19 in #children & #adolescents
Most had major limitations and should be interpreted with caution.
