Speaking of which, Res, if you or anyone has information on safety of Pfizer for people with asthma feel free to link.
I did a few searches through VAERS for 3 of the 6 asthma related symptom codes (for Phyzer//BioNTech). From a quick scan of the hits, most were elderly patients, or patients who had pneumonia recently preceding the vaccination. Basically, there were usually other factors at play.

The few retroactive observational studies I can find for asthma patients are for those who contracted COVID. I can't seem to find anything for vaccinated asthma patients. It does appear that most (all?) asthma related advocacy organizations are pro-vaccine.

for what it's worth, CDC's current estimate for anaphylaxis from the P/B vaccine is 5 in 1mil.

You set the bar high for us all and even though I frequently fail to follow your lead, I want you to know that it is seen, recognized and greatly appreciated. Thanks man!

Thanks for hunting the study down. Might not get to it until I get a night’s sleep. I’m too old for these all nighters.

It's a little heavy. No point in lifting it right now. ;-)

I've only done a very brief (and light) scan. I wonder if the majority being males has to do with gathering types, with risk-taking behavior, or if it's more biological? I personally lean towards the former two, but if it's the latter... ooph.

That 89% of the genomic sequencing has found the Delta variant isn't particularly comforting.

The more than 40% of Americans who remain unvaccinated now account for 97% of all Covid-19 hospitalizations and 99.2% of deaths. Hundreds of Americans are dying every day from a vaccine-preventable illness .
Good to see Parler, Facebook, Twitter, 4chan, and Fox killing people. Good job, Conservatives.

eta: Democracies require an informed populace to function. When we allow our news media and other conduits of information (social media platforms,Youtube, instathot, etc) to be flooded with mass disinformation by bad actors, democracy breaks down. Commercial news and social media "news feeds" should be held to a standard of factual accuracy and objectivity. There's no reason they shouldn't be. All of these alternate-fact realities springing up are tearing democracies apart. It has to be stopped.

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

One step ahead of the hoarding. Not joking.

I’m guessing that the paper doesn’t include the relevant denominator.
