...dot patel always good to have you thanks for joining us this morning.

00:00:14.470 --> 00:00:18.800
Good morning break so...I mean this was the first stamp of approval that fda's given

00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:21.760
for coordinate defects in thinking that of course

00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:26.500
...and j and j won't be far behind...actually think that this is

00:00:26.500 --> 00:00:30.870
going to move the needle that we're going to see a significant jump in vaccinations

00:00:30.870 --> 00:00:34.300
...I do...but not just from individual left

00:00:34.300 --> 00:00:39.175
called several patients and told them hey that approval you've been waiting for it here so I know we're going

00:00:39.175 --> 00:00:44.150
to move probably several million people who have been waiting but even more

00:00:44.150 --> 00:00:48.590
than that we're already seeing mandate businesses cities jurisdictions

00:00:48.590 --> 00:00:53.430
...even...telling people...the federal government military that they

00:00:53.430 --> 00:00:58.620
need to be vaccinated and the full approval...get from the tell what to do that it got to

00:00:58.620 --> 00:01:03.050
...this approval was about the american academy of pediatrics felt they...release a

00:01:03.050 --> 00:01:05.200
...cautions against

00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:09.690
off label use of covert nineteen vaccines in kids under twelve

00:01:09.690 --> 00:01:13.860
...a responsible position actually give

00:01:13.860 --> 00:01:18.830
a shop to a kid under twelve...it's not been recommended and when can we

00:01:18.830 --> 00:01:24.500
expect younger kids to get the shot great question alan happy violated birthday

00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:29.010
...one every physician is absolutely

00:01:29.010 --> 00:01:32.250
...listen to the best advice of the american academy of pediatrics

00:01:32.250 --> 00:01:36.350
cdc and the fda of all caution for good reason we may all be

00:01:36.350 --> 00:01:40.880
tempted myself included to try to vaccinate children under the age of twelve early

00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:43.410
...how much harm we don't have a doses...the

00:01:43.410 --> 00:01:48.270
adverse side effects and we could be unintentionally putting children at heart so cheer

00:01:48.270 --> 00:01:52.880
point though when we see the data pfizer has already announced that they should be

00:01:52.880 --> 00:01:55.910
submitting results and an application for

00:01:55.910 --> 00:02:01.170
...emergency authorization for five to eleven by the end of september and if you

00:02:01.170 --> 00:02:05.490
look at the past actions of the fda three four weeks to turn around from that

00:02:05.490 --> 00:02:10.250
...to take action shortly thereafter we could be looking out of axes the five eleven-year-old

00:02:10.250 --> 00:02:11.540
...the thanksgiving

00:02:11.540 --> 00:02:16.940
break half now under five is a different story...take a little longer that's a good thing

00:02:16.940 --> 00:02:21.490
...rush these trials I think the...made it clear that work twenty four seven but they...

00:02:21.490 --> 00:02:26.410
cut corners so five under five probably towards the end-of-the-year maybe early twenty,

00:02:26.410 --> 00:02:29.840
twenty two but here's the key point though...the more adult

00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.940
...vaccinated the better we can protect our children by putting that wall of immunity around

00:02:33.940 --> 00:02:36.430
...a mascot...that we can keep them safe

00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:43.550
...talk about pregnant women obviously this that hits home to me and I thought this was terrifying

00:02:43.550 --> 00:02:47.590
new study published in java found that women giving birth with covet

00:02:47.590 --> 00:02:52.540
...ten times more likely to die site two questions here you know,

00:02:52.540 --> 00:02:57.290
because the percentage of vaccinated pregnant women is still low should this fda approval

00:02:57.290 --> 00:03:00.980
provide more insurance to them that they needed before

00:03:00.980 --> 00:03:05.350
and also for those who are vaccinated is the breakthrough

00:03:05.350 --> 00:03:09.550
risk is still I mean part of that study and I mean should just be wearing my

00:03:09.550 --> 00:03:14.550
...all times at this point, yeah, don't...for pregnant women

00:03:14.550 --> 00:03:19.500
in general only about twenty four percent of pregnant women are vaccinated here quite incredibly

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:23.800
low rates not just high-rate that death which is absolutely terrifying

00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.350
but forty percent more likely to have pre term birth premature

00:03:27.350 --> 00:03:31.640
verbs and also six times more likely to end up in an icu if they do get

00:03:31.640 --> 00:03:36.390
...none of this is what we want for mothers or...so you're absolutely right

00:03:36.390 --> 00:03:40.750
the approval should be helpful but I'll be honest with you...I hope that pregnant women

00:03:40.750 --> 00:03:45.160
listen to what we just talked about because it's not just the approval I want

00:03:45.160 --> 00:03:49.780
them to understand that having covet absolutely could harm your pregnancy

00:03:49.780 --> 00:03:54.170
and unfortunately your baby and...point about break for infections were watching this

00:03:54.170 --> 00:03:58.160
closely look art let's be honest our ability to report on break

00:03:58.160 --> 00:04:02.850
for infection is just a patchwork of data so we know that at

00:04:02.850 --> 00:04:06.640
least the less than a percent of them very small number are getting

00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:10.870
great for infections we don't quite know about pregnant women, for example, but,

00:04:10.870 --> 00:04:15.010
we know that it's very small and it's rare but it's one of the reasons

00:04:15.010 --> 00:04:19.800
the bush administration has now encourage after eight months to get a booster

00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:24.420
shot because we know that are immunity decreases over time we do not have

00:04:24.420 --> 00:04:29.200
enough data to say that pregnant women get a...of break for infection but

00:04:29.200 --> 00:04:33.460
we're watching that closely and all the more reason that you can at any time

00:04:33.460 --> 00:04:36.130
your pregnancy...the initial series

00:04:36.130 --> 00:04:41.040
of vaccines and also talk to your doctor about when or if you should get a booster at eight

00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:45.240
months...what's response you talked about right could break the cases I can't tell

00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:49.100
you look at least a couple of text today about someone who apparently is

00:04:49.100 --> 00:04:54.200
diagnosed with kobe even though they've been vaccinated are people who don't want to get the vaccination they

00:04:54.200 --> 00:04:57.880
...what's the point which...that?

00:04:57.880 --> 00:05:02.770
...I'm glad you brought up I did it kind of finish that...she asked about masks and you're right

00:05:02.770 --> 00:05:05.790
I think that every single one of us now it's not just

00:05:05.790 --> 00:05:09.010
anecdote every single one of us know somebody unfortunately some of

00:05:09.010 --> 00:05:13.270
...people myself included who are in the hospital that does nothing the vaccine

00:05:13.270 --> 00:05:18.340
is not working it means that we...a lot of...around us let me tell you...

00:05:18.340 --> 00:05:22.860
factions it's still incredibly rare to end up in a hospital or to end up with

00:05:22.860 --> 00:05:27.650
a bad outcome but I don't want an infection anymore than you do so to both what-you

00:05:27.650 --> 00:05:32.030
...daughter discussing this is why we're recommending that in high

00:05:32.030 --> 00:05:36.620
areas of viral activity which let's be honest...basically the whole map right

00:05:36.620 --> 00:05:41.550
now in any area where you've got a lot of virus circulating if you're indoors especially,

00:05:41.550 --> 00:05:43.490
you know, the vaccine status of people

00:05:43.490 --> 00:05:48.050
around you for your children were not vaccinated wear a mask so that

00:05:48.050 --> 00:05:52.600
you can protect yourself and others it only works when we all do it indoors especially

00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:57.470
...the second...the buckle up again I think we got a little bit of a break people were tired just

00:05:57.470 --> 00:06:02.960
...if it's not going to take a...you have to wrap up...I mean if that makes...

00:06:02.960 --> 00:06:08.250
