REUTERS/Amir Cohen The Pfizer–BioNTech and Oxford–AstraZeneca vaccines have been found at least initially to effectively protect against the fast-spreading Delta coronavirus variant, but the level of immunity is waning over time, according to a study led by the University of Oxford.
The results supported similar observations seen in Israel, which began administering third Pfizer doses last month to counteract a surge in infections of the Delta variant.
Researchers at UK’s University of Oxford conducted in partnership with the country’s Office for National Statistics concluded that two vaccine doses are still the most effective way to ensure protection against the COVID-19 Delta variant, but that their effectiveness is reduced after a few months. The Delta variant has caused sharp rises in infections in many countries, including some with relatively high vaccination coverage such as the UK.
“Whilst vaccinations reduce the chance of getting COVID-19, they do not eliminate it. More importantly, our data shows the potential for vaccinated individuals to still pass COVID-19 onto others, and the importance of testing and self-isolation to reduce transmission risk,” said Koen Pouwels, senior researcher in Oxford University’s Nuffield Department of Population Health.

The study researched the effectiveness of vaccines in a large community-based survey of randomly selected households across the UK, where PCR tests were performed irrespective of symptoms, vaccination and prior infection. One result showed that Delta infections after two vaccine doses had similar peak levels of virus to those in unvaccinated people; in comparison, peak virus levels in those infected post-vaccination with the Alpha COVID-19 variant were much lower.
Another key finding suggested that two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine have greater initial effectiveness against new COVID-19 infections, but that it declined faster compared with two doses of the Oxford-AstraZeneca jab. […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
