So phenomenal news from today's testimony from J&J executives
— Ashish K. Jha, MD, MPH (@ashishkjha) February 23, 2021
They will ship 20M of these single-shot vaccines before end of March
Every calculation I've done assumed no J&J vax until April
Ah you say -- but don't I want Moderna/Pfizer? Aren't they better??
No

Getting a vaccine shields you from severe Covid disease—and could save your life. But it's not yet clear how well it prevents you from spreading the virus. Until more of us are protected and the science is clear, masks and distancing keep everyone safer.

For 78 days in a row
— Ashish K. Jha, MD, MPH (@ashishkjha) February 23, 2021
the 7-day moving avg for number of daily deaths from COVID was above 2000
Over the weekend, it fell under 2,000 for first time in nearly 3 months
By next week, it'll be at 1500
And its falling a bit faster than I was expecting
Why?
