Since I go to science fiction conventions, I make sure my vaccinations are up to date and mask any time I'm in a crowd

Please do not attend the sf-cons I attend. If you are ill then stay at home!

If I'm ill, I don't go ANYWHERE.  Except bed.

It is my understandibg that most of the shots given for Covid were mRNA, with no initial distribution of traditional vaccines for Covid.

Thus any statistic, such as deaths of caregivers, will be more of a correlation, and not provable as causation.

If 95% of cars are a Ford minivan, then saying Ford minivans cause car crashes has a high correlation. But whether thats the cause of the crashes can't be deduced without a lot of further investigation.

Pfizer and Moderna are mRNA 

J&J, Astra Zenica is a traditional vector vaccine 

Novax if a protein based vaccine.

Here in Australia, astra Zenica was the easiest to get and most prolific vaccine. 

America it was Pfizer I understand.

Depends on where you were at the time.
