Its 450 people, blind groups of 15 people each. and the study is done in a way that actually stacks the deck against measuring the effectiveness of a j&j booster versus the mrna. so even though theres a lot of press saying the mrna is a preferable booster to the j&j, its not so cut and dry because the kinetics of the immune response of the j&j are such that there is a delayed effect, it goes up much later, and that study cut it off at 29 days whereas the higher vaccine effectiveness occurred 80 ...

Bipartisan investigation, the first antitrust investigation in 15 years in congress. we had ten congressional hearings, 17 round tables, produced over a million pages of documents. we wrote a 450 page report, which found that these large technology platforms have monopoly power, they favor their own products and services, they crush competitors, and as a consequence, we put forth a set of recommendations. we moved forward in a bipartisan way for the first five of these bills to really restore co...

Need to get pfizer as a booster, can i get something else and what if i got moderna first? this study, not huge, just over 450 people. it found that mixing and matching worked just fine and was safe and folks who got johnson & johnson first, they were actually better off if they got a booster from pfizer or moderna. they were actually better off if their booster was not johnson & johnson this. group today, the fda advisers will be talking about this study today but they wont be doing anything ab...

The baylor college of medicine this week that showed that mix and match strategy is probably better than if you get a j&j first and get either a pfizer or moderna second, your antibody levels are much higher. the one thing i would caution is there were only 50 people in each group, so only 450 total people, so still a very small number. this is very consistent, though, with the data out of the uk, with the astrazeneca vaccine thats very similar to j&j. where i am is thats probably where were goi...

Johnson vaccine with another dose of johnson & johnson, or do we get very novel and take on the approach of possibly mixing, giving one of the other vaccines as a boost to the johnson & johnson vaccine recipients? >> there was one study that suggested that changing, if youre j&j, maybe getting one of the other different vaccines, that it would be helpful, maybe even better. do we have enough data on that, sore that just one study? >> you know, it was a very small study. only 450 participants in ...

Conditions or you have to have sort of a risky situation where you live, where you work, if youre exposed to covid, like a health care worker, or if you live, for example, in a nursing home. kate, you also mentioned mixing and matching vaccines. a lot of people have had questions about this. the bottom line is, this study shows that it was safe and that it really might be helpful to some people. lets take a look at what this study found. so this was a relatively small study, about 450 participan...

They are going to hear about a study of more than about 450 people where they looked at mixing and matching. in other words, there is a group in this study that originally got johnson & johnson but then got a booster from pfizer and moderna. whats interesting is that mixing and matching in this study worked well, but especially well for folks who got j&j to begin with. those folks, they were actually better off getting a pfizer or moderna booster than getting a johnson & johnson booster. in othe...

But what do you think in terms of mixing and matching, what do you think of this? does it help? to your point of needing harmony, do you think it confuses? >> weve seen some people lack access to one vaccine or another and have no other option to get a boost er with an alternative vaccine. i think that will be less of an issue in the united states because we have an abundance of vaccines. its well-done study, but it is a small study, 450 people, as elizabeth cohen points out. i think theres a bu...

Study. this was a study done by the national institutes of health. it was a relatively small study just over 450 people. what they found is that folks who originally got johnson & johnson, they actually got a better response if they had a pfizer or moderna booster. in other words, getting johnson & johnson first and then a booster with pfizer or moderna seemed to be better than getting johnson & johnson both times. folks who got pfizer or moderna the first time around, it seems that they did wel...

Amazing, 90 years old. >> 90 years old, thats extraordinary. i got to experience this near van horn, texas, with you in july during bezoss maiden voyage. help us understand why today is so significant to us. could we look back on this and other early missions and say this is the equivalent of the early barn storming days of commercial aviation. does today get you and me closer to going into space? >> if youve got a quarter million dollars to spend, yes. and probably closer to a half million doll...
