@vincent I applaud your immediate defense of Amy when a personal insult was hurled in her direction… and your clear and unhesitating removal (rather than suspension) of the perpetrator. It’s obvious that in addition to being a genuine intellectual and SME you are the kind of old-school class act that I respect and would love to know personally. Bravo.
Protecting Amy… an important task as she reminds me so much of my mother-in-law and my 96 year old Grandma. (that didn’t sound so complimentary, but it was. I love and enjoy my mother-in-law AND being treated like a king by my Armenian grandmother…. First born male and all.. LOL) Thanks for the podcast episodes. I am only a mere paramedic, (acquired when we absorbed NYC-EMS), with an MS in structural engineering. So I understand about .01% of anything said. 😂. So I just pester the wife with my questions.
Hi! As a non-virologist, non-scientist, just have to say I always love the podcast. Also wanted to give a shout out for non neuro-typical women, including those with autism. We aren’t idiots, we present differently than people with autism who identify as men, and you may be surprised how well some of us communicate/function. If you have a non-neurotypical person in your life, take a moment to ask them how you can support them. ❤️ :::thank you for coming to my TED talk:::
00:25:50 Perhaps here's a hint: "Serum proteome microarray analysis demonstrated that asymptomatics mainly produced IgM and IgG antibodies against S1 and N proteins out of 20 proteins of SARS-CoV-2. Different from strong and persistent N-specific antibodies, S1-specific IgM responses, which evolved in asymptomatic individuals as early as the seventh day after exposure..."
So appreciative for you both. Thanks for answering all of our questions every week and sharing yourselves with us. Been to the Italian fest in NYC and had the donuts. AMAZING! Merry Christmas to all 🎄

BRAVO…… My favorite TV show for sure. You two are GREAT teachers of public health. And play on one another perfectly…….. I’d love to see other scientists do what you do…… Anti science pervades society and is nothing new……………
This is true. I am a public health researcher and I have learned so much from them. I've sometimes heard them say 'were not public health researchers' or some similar phrase, but I disagree.
I have Hashimoto's can I take low dose naltrexone which has brought my antibodies down I'm just curious for you guys to talk about that if you know anything about that you know I hear about cytokine storms and autoimmune disease and getting too many shots I know I'm not saying this right but mainly I just want to know if you guys know anything about LDN and what it may or may not do with vaccines

Just some thoughts on plastic particle pollution. Saltwater would kill or stunt normal terrestrial plants. Small microparticles in an apple would not have uptake from saltwater to terrestrial plants because the salt would be toxic to the plant.. Small micropartles in freshwater might or might not be up taken, but the particle size would have to be very, very small to cross from soil across the plants rigid cell wall. I think the microparticle would have to pass either in freshwater or tagging along with a mineral nutrient. I would suspect if there are microparticles of plastic in an apple it would be from rinsewater after the fruit was picked. Just an opinion, but in an animal such as a seal or a fish, larger plastic particles would have active digestion (which doesn't occur in a plant in the acidic manner of animals) and the active digestion could reduce plastic particles in such a manner as to either physically penetrate fatty tissue or possibly be taken up . We know that pollutants are taken up in fish (e.g. mercury) but that is through a long process of bioaccumulation from eating prey that had taken the pollutant and incorporated it into their flesh. The mercury is taken up at an elemental level, but plastics are not elemental and are instead quite long complex chains of petrochemical derived organic based compounds.
Microplastics are everywhere, not just in sea water. They are in the air that we breathe, as well as the water that we drink and the food that we eat. They get into the air mostly from wear and tear on our vehicle tyres, shoe soles (made from EVA plastics or similar, not natural rubber these days) and polyester clothing. We don't yet know the population level effects, but I personally have a hypersensitivity to certain plastics (I can't wear synthetic clothing, or anything stitched together with polyester thread without it destroying my skin and causing nerve pain). The ubiquity of environmental plastic pollution does make life difficult for me. I have to vacuum regularly to keep the plastic build-up in dust away from my skin and lungs.
I love your program and both of you and what you are doing to help everyone! It's been lifesavingly helpful! Thank you! P.S. Yes, that rude person was waaay out of line, inappropriate and mean.
Vincent and Amy-- our politicians ( not our virologists)have ~~ I understand declared quarantine no longer essential. Maybe they truly believe if they pretend its over it will be.! Ignorance and optimism are sometimes really dangerous bedfellows.
Brilliant, rigorous academics. Not my field of expertise, but really appreciate your videos which are helping me educate myself and become more informed about covid, and virology in general. Thank you!
Well… this did not age well. This played while I was resting, and it kept thinking, gosh this person either doesn’t have any up to date data, or this is an old video. Then when I looked, I see this is an old video. 🤦♀️
My daughter attends UC San Diego and classes are virtual for the first two weeks of winter quarter. I think it’s reasonable to allow students time to get the booster.
My daughter is a nurse and got her 3rd Pfizer. Shortly after that she found she was pregnant. Do you think she need a 4th boost later in her pregnancy?
20:09 “Why do you have to be insulting” Amy you just hailed a baseless insult at Micheal Mina for crying out loud. You are about the most insulting science communicators I have ever come to listen to. I’m done with the Amy Q&A.
LOL Mina has a HUGE conflict of interest and has had one even before he was OFFICIALLY announced as CEO of the testing company-why do you think he's pushed SO HARD for testing HEALTHY people ALL THE TIME for a SINGLE virus 90% have immunity to?
Incorrect. I don't know what you're reading, but every paper I've read states the very high accuracy of them. Of course you must test at the right time & test correctly.
We love Amy’s personality! And her intellect. Thank you Amy for sharing your expertise.

Agreed Gene, it was nice to see Vincent take care of business. Amy's such a interesting and smart woman, that comment was way out of line
Defend Amy at all costs.

1:15:00 most people getting infected are vaccinated?
Yes, because most people ARE vaccinated
@@willassad8670 and how many of the unvaccinated had covid and are immune???
Love Q&A. 👍

Finally, our flying cars the future was supposed to deliver! I have always been an Amy fan. She's smart and she's direct. My favorite kind of human.
Lovvvve Barbara!! You guys are awesome

My daughter attends UC San Diego and classes are virtual for the first two weeks of winter quarter. I think it’s reasonable to allow students time to get the booster.
kids that age do NOT need booster!!! THANK god the Midwestern universities aren't this risk adverse. I'd demand a prorated tuition for virtual
Thanks A & V! ❤️
I thought that Daniel said at-home rapids were 96% accurate for contagiousness?
❤️ You too Vincent.
Why get tested in the first place? You can't do anything about a positive or negative result anyway.
Amy is the best, haters can bounce.
My daughter is a nurse and got her 3rd Pfizer. Shortly after that she found she was pregnant. Do you think she need a 4th boost later in her pregnancy?
Booster every 6 months 😆
I presume you haven't had Thai cooking (in Thailand, preferably)...
Shut up haters. We ❤️💗❤️ Amy. She knows somethings we don't so don't be a dolt.
My favorite listening, Amy I so love your direct answers love how you reply. Big fan of you both. Thanks for all you guys do xxx🎄🎄🎄🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

just read that Biden's test might not come for a year
Arthur Avenue is great.
Perhaps the many boosters narrative addresses the greater needs of the wealthcare system and is driving the science in some countries...
It's quite reasonable that the medical advice considers capacity restraints.

Has Amy not seen the accuracy studies on rapid antigen tests? They are literally 50-60% accurate. Way lower than PCR.
I assume the study compared the rapid antigen tests against PCR but I'm wondering what was used to determine accuracy of the PCR?
Incorrect. I don't know what you're reading, but every paper I've read states the very high accuracy of them. Of course you must test at the right time & test correctly.
As accurate as PCR when used correctly.
@@carlitaticconi6655 Whole genome sequencing, when the sample has sufficient viable virus (PCR cycles < 28).
@A Q I'm guessing likely not at time of antigen test, but could be by next day?
