A July 2022 study didn't find vaccinated people are contagious with COVID-19 longer than unvaccinated people.
, which studies immunology. The New England Journal of Medicine published the study July 21.
Researchers studied people infected with the delta or omicron BA.1 variant. Sixteen participants were unvaccinated, 37 were vaccinated and 13 were vaccinated and boosted.“Three doctors from the same hospital ‘die suddenly’ in the same week,” after the hospital mandated a fourth COVID-19 vaccine for employees.One of the study’s co-authors, Dr.
no differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients when it came to the amount of time it took for a PCR test to switch from positive to negative or to the amount of time it took a culture test, or an attempt to grow live virus in culture from a nasal swab, to switch to negative.was that people infected with the delta or omicron variant shed virus and were thus potentially infectious for a median of six to eight days from the onset of symptoms or a positive SARS-CoV-2 test.
A video shared on Facebook claimed that a study found that vaccinated people were"5X more contagious than the unvaccinated 10 days after SARS-CoV-2 infection."

A cross-country analysis of macroeconomic responses to COVID-19 pandemic using Twitter sentimentsThe COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact on the global economy. In this paper, we use the Phillips curve to compare and analyze the macroeconomics of three different countries with distinct income levels, namely, lower-middle (Nigeria), upper-middle (South Africa), and high (Canada) income. We aim to (1) find macroeconomic changes in the three countries during the pandemic compared to pre-pandemic time, (2) compare the countries in terms of response to the COVID-19 economic crisis, and (3) compare their expected economic reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic in the near future. An advantage to our work is that we analyze macroeconomics on a monthly basis to capture the shocks and rapid changes caused by on and off rounds of lockdowns. We use the volume and social sentiments of the Twitter data to approximate the macroeconomic statistics. We apply four different machine learning algorithms to estimate the unemployment rate of South Africa and Nigeria on monthly basis. The results show that at the beginning of the pandemic the unemployment rate increased for all the three countries. However, Canada was able to control and reduce the unemployment rate during the COVID-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, in line with the Phillips curve short-run, the inflation rate of Canada increased to a level that has never occurred in more than fifteen years. Nigeria and South Africa have not been able to control the unemployment rate and did not return to the pre-COVID-19 level. Yet, the inflation rate has increased in both countries. The inflation rate is still comparable to the pre-COVID-19 level in South Africa, but based on the Phillips curve short-run, it will increase further, if the unemployment rate decreases. Unfortunately, Nigeria is experiencing a horrible stagflation and a wild increase in both unemployment and inflation rates. This shows how vulnerable lower-middle-income countries could be to lockdowns and economic restrictions. In the near future, the main concern for al
