Indeed the CDC is US based. As is Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J. I was only sharing the info, which seems to be the same as posted by the manufacturers.
.
If some countries and patients decide that they know better, that is up to them.
Thank you for your condescension. There are scientists in Canada too.
Hereās a pretty good history of how our country dealt with the delays. Yes itās Wikipedia but itās a good summary and you can check the sources if you care to: COVID-19 vaccination in Canada - Wikipedia
You are reading things that are not there.
Just like I didnāt take any insult when you pointed out that cdc is us based. Since i live here i am aware. Just facts. No arguments.
That may be true. Are you curious to know why some countries do not follow the CDC guidelines? Or not really.
Nope. I honestly do not care what government X decides about 2nd shot timing. Not a bit. It doesnāt interest me.

Itās not āmy dataā. I was only sharing it. Iām not a scientist, virologist or medical professional.

Moving on now
We didnāt sign up because our 2-bedroom apartments are occupied until at least April/May right now. Our studio is open but cannot have long term stays in it because it doesnāt have a full kitchen (per local regulations).
However, our state made a big splash about getting our first bunch of Afghan refugees and they arrived the first/second week of November. I know that your state took a lot of refugees so it may just be that they havenāt been sorted out yet. It seems to be taking a long time. You may yet get someone.
Yeah who knows. A LOT of refugees fly INTO our local airports. It seems this is a small part in the middle of their journey before they actually get placed anywhere at all.
.
It might be many months between āflying into PHL, EWR, JFKā and some kind of āfinal placementā in some community with housing and employment. I would like to know more, but didnāt see anything really definitive.
Just saw a Tweet from Oregon where 3 Afghan men staying at a B&B saw tweeter raking leaves and using phone app asked if they could help. Had the whole neighborhood clean in an hour and made a bunch of new friends.
This was not an Air publicity post, just an observation from someone who follows someone I follow.
We donāt all live in the US @Jefferson
I have been working on our Covid programme in the UK since it opened in March last year so donāt need to rely on what your health agency says. I have up to date knowledge on how our programme works here.
Why would other countries follow your guidelines. We have our own
My point exactly. Each country has their own set of challenges around vaccine distribution and has had to make difficult choices about things like the timing of first, second and booster doses and mixing doses. It doesnāt really matter what the manufacturer recommends about timing if the vaccine isnāt available.
Really? More? One would have expected that you might have read the previous, āI was merely sharing informationā?
.
Thank you for the comments. It is always such a pleasure to receive them and they are particularly informative. We feel very in the loop on things in the UK now.
.
How Interesting! It is surprising you might confuse 2nd shot and booster timing. Perhaps they have you working too hard

Oh and for the record, Iām just sharing the info, this time for your country! Perhaps now you might let it go, and weāll ignore the mix-up of 8 weeks and 6 months.
My 90 year old stepmom in the UK had her first Pfizer last Dec. and wasnāt called for her second until the end of April.
Online information isnāt a substitute for what is actually happening on the ground.
Product availability may not line up with official recommendations. That does not change the recommended timing, right?
.
We got āboostedā 3 days ago! Woo-hoo!
Hi there. Iām a reporter at the financial news website MarketWatch. Iām working on a story about Airbnbās efforts to house refugees. Iād like to speak to hosts about their thoughts on the program. Iām interested in writing about it because I havenāt seen too much coverage of how the program actually works in practice. If youād like to get in touch, Iām at lalbrecht [at] marketwatch [dot] com. Thanks, Leslie
