The following webinar has 59 minutes of rock solid, data driven information related to Covid vaccines.
COVID-19 External | August 12, 2021 - Enterprise Video On Demand (uhc.com)
If you haven’t the patience for the entire webinar, FF to:
- 12:30; protection status afforded those who have been vaccinated (note in particular at 15:00, inpatient admissions).
- 38:30 to 43:00; guidance for employer vaccine mandates; e.g., does the ADA permit financial incentives/penalties? (Yes, for employees. No, for dependents.)
- 51:30; just how infectious is the Delta variant? Great graph HERE. (“What is R-naught?” Sounds like something only Matt Amodio would know.)
For the 42.2% who remain unvaccinated, the burning question of the day is, how will you get into Summerfest (or other venues, not to mention some travel destinations)? Thanks to Rose Gray’s travel show on WTMJ Saturday morning, THIS might be (just) one local answer for guaranteed rapid (same day) Covid test results.
Careful.
The $ 0 co-pays for clinical Covid testing and vaccines may not apply to what’s called employer “surveillance” testing (at 34:45 of the webinar).
Class dismissed. (Who says ‘teachers’ have the summer off!)
