Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
We ended Thursday Sept 16 on 771.7m doses as of 7pm. Today's 7pm report (https://pib.gov.in/PressReleseDetail.aspx?PRID=1756543) says 817.3m
That's a colossal 46m doses in 4 days across a WEEKEND. 46m by itself would rank as among the top 5 weeks ever, and it's just over 4 days.
There's clearly a strong supply rampup happening.
And I maintain that the idea of the Cowin daily vaccination ticker is political genius. Keeping up with it has become a national pastime.

Btw, Digilocker has an option to download your vaccination certificates - I wasn't successful in fetching mine, has it worked for anyone here?
It does seem to be a useful feature as vaccination certs become more important for travel, etc. I don't have to carry the paper copy in my wallet (though no one has asked for it so far). Already some hospitals are skipping Covid RTPCR tests for fully vaccinated patients/attenders.

Hell I will accept a combined output of cadila, Bio-e and BB to equal SII output. Before we send any jabs overseas.
Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
SII has a contractual obligation to supply to COVAX/Gavi. Their access to Covishield production is tied to being able to partition between India and ROW supply. They've basically overridden some of these but will soon have to ensure they do meet commitments.
Sept 2020 Gavi: New collaboration makes further 100 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine available to low- and middle-income countries
But it's fair to ensure the government ensures BioE and Covaxin rampup happens on time to compensate. They've been doing an excellent job of this so far right ? Clearly something like this is obvious to them and they also have a much better sense of production estimates going forward.
As someone who's been collecting data for months now, I find their general command over the information to be solid. When they state something like 1 and 3 mo supply figures I've a good reason to consider they've got the details covered, because they've demonstrated doing so.

IMVHO - Per people who I trust and respect are advising GoI - From scientific/technical/data point of view starting export is not going to practically impact vaccine distribution in India and many countries (like Vietnam which at present has very low vaccination rates) will benefit by it *tremendously*. India has earned extraordinary good will recently supplying oxygen concentrators and other equipments to Vietnam (and *many* other countries).
Meanwhile the total on day 249 per PIB at 7PM is 825,780,128 (Delta 8,384,365)
Things are looking stable. Kerala phase has become stable (in my opinion) and beta value (in spite of many people not wearing mask properly and becoming a little careless) is under control - no new worrisome variant has appeared till now and even some newspapers are reporting low R value (less than 1).

The commitments would be announced “as we seek to advance the fight against Covid-19 and hold ourselves accountable around specific targets on three key challenges — saving lives now, vaccinating the world, and building back better."

Hopefully Biden's staff gives him Prevaegen, Ashwagandha, and amphetamines to keep him alert tomorrow through Thursday. Who knows what the dude will say in any discussions related to the QUAD or vaccines. Vaccine Maitri has restarted, so there isn't a whole lot to discuss at the political level except to pressure the US to provide EUA for Covaxin and others. The duffers in State, CDC, and FDA can go look at: https://www.mea.gov.in/vaccine-supply.htm for updates on India's Vaccine Maitri.

Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
At $24/dose, that comes out to $12 billion cost to US treasury. On top of that it only vaccinates 250 million and is subject to spoil much faster at room storage. This incompetent administration should be buying the AZ or J&J instead and could possibly vaccinate over a billion people at the same cost.Amber G. wrote:Biden will announce today the US will purchase an additional 500 million Pfizer Covid-19 vaccines to donate to countries around the world.

Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
Does Pfizer have the capacity to produce 1.1 billion shots in the next several months? I seriously doubt it.
Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
^^^^
Mort Saar,
If I had to guess, the overall donations will be lower than the announced shots. They will start with what ever excess capacity/dosages they have left over and might start off with that and later the number will taper off as other countries reach herd immunity or covid starts moving away from the headlines.
but the administration comments will probably be used for bragging rights over concern for the rest of the world.

SRH player T. Natarajan tested positive for Covid at the ongoing IPL. Wouldn't players and the support staff of done full vaccination before the second leg of IPL started? Prima facie, this appears to be a case of breakthrough infection. Now these people with their secure bio bubble etc can contract covid despite high fitness levels and full vaccination can catch the infection what about ordinary folks? Worrisome.

Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
Pfizer was slated for nearly 3 billion doses in 2022 with two additional plants in production. One in South Africa and another in Singapore coming on-line later in 2022. This is a huge cash cow for Pfizer where the US government and taxpayer will be paying for 1.1 billion doses where many of which will spoil in distribution. I have yet to see wastage percentage in the US; it seems the information is deliberately hidden. I am beginning to doubt the efficacy of Pfizer where the FDA may have lied about the data as there appear to be many breakthrough cases in the US. The US has a 7-day running average of 130K and an active case load of >9.7 million, which is the highest since the pandemic began in Feb. 2020. The US has 55% of the population fully vaccinated and 64% with at least one dose.
Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
There's a lot of silly nonsense around 'fake vaccination certificates' in India. This argument is fundamentally ignorant of what the printed form is. It's NOT an authenticated document like some attested certificate. It's just a printed paper showing a QR code. The authentication is via digital certification on the Cowin website. Go there and there's a button staring at you saying 'Verify Certificate'.
Some people argue this is some kind of prototype technology that is hacked easily etc. Maybe they don't have kids , haven't married or had a death in the family. Because if you lived in many parts of India, the birth, marriage and death certificates are issued exactly the same way:
Mumbai: https://www.mcgm.gov.in/irj/portal/anon ... er=english
Bengluru: https://ejanma.karnataka.gov.in/
Kerala: https://cr.lsgkerala.gov.in/
One does not get an attested certificate from registrar after waiting all day. The details are filed and then you access a certificate by filling in query, getting a QR code which takes an inspector to the site to verify the printed information is valid.
US states and UK GRO do birth certificates the old fashioned way. QR based digital authentication is a strange creature to them.

Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
Vaccine cards in the US are informal documents and not quickly verified. Mine is written by hand, but I have Pfizer stickers on it indicating lot number and date. There's people selling vaccine cards on eBay in the US.
Re: Wuhan Coronavirus Resource Thread
France has an app called "TousAntiCovid" (AllAgainstCovid). One can scan vaccination certificate QR code (with name) into it. For self & family too. Public places like restaurants, cinemas etc now check for vaccination status to allow entry using similar phone app to scan your QR code for instant verification against your ID. While crossing borders, same QR code + name, DoB, vaccine type (Pfizer etc with a long lot code below) and 2nd vaccination date can be displayed in the app.
You can optionally update your health status if you test covid +ve using a QR code sent by the public health dept. The app uses bluetooth to warn others who have come in close contact as potential contaminated cases and alerts them to isolate & get tested ASAP. and vice versa if you have been in close proximity to a person whose app has been updated with +ve status. Never got a chance to test this part though!
Also provides national and local health dept notifications, data updates & alerts based on geolocation.
Data shown today: 81.7% of eligible population vaccinated, 47.12Million given both doses, 6794 new cases yesterday, 33% load on hospital ICUs, 1656 patients in IC, effective R 0.72, 95.5% cases are L452 (delta) variant, 0.3% E484K (beta, gamma etc) 0.9% E484Q, 1.4% RT-PCR positivity rate last week, No of persons who declared themselves as +ve in the app so far : 463,656 etc etc...
Very simple to use and well implemented.

In CA too, I can get a verified Vaccination card linked to the state database with a QR Code. It took them a month to verify my record but they issued it finally. In my wife's case it was issued same day she applied.

No one knows of the state QR code system in CA. It was poorly implemented when I tried to access it, and if I showed it at a restaurant I imagine they would have no idea what it is. Everyone knows the paper cards onlee.
