The World Health Organization (WHO) vaccine advisory group today weighed in
with recommendations for delivering the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, urging th
e vaccine doses be given 21 to 28 days apart in most circumstances, but in
certain situations allowing for an interval of up to 6 weeks.

"Countries experiencing exceptional epidemiological circumstances may consi
der delaying for a short period the administration of the second dose as a
pragmatic approach to maximizing the number of individuals benefiting from
a first dose while vaccine supply continues to increase. WHO?s reco
mmendation at present is that the interval between doses may be extended up
to 42 days (6 weeks), on the basis of currently available clinical trial d
ata. Should additional data become available on longer intervals between do
ses, revision of this recommendation will be considered. Countries should e
nsure that any such programme adjustments to dose intervals do not affect t
he likelihood of receiving the second dose."

Anybody need a pick and place machine ?
I have upgraded and my old pick and place machine is available.
I am in the St. Louis, MO area, the machine is a Philips CSM84 (made by
yamaha) in 1995. It is an old-school machine with centering jaws, but built
like a tank, and in perfect working condition. I have 50 assorted feeders
for it, and some feeder rails from a scrapped machine that you can use to
make a feeder storage cart or shelf. It also has a mechanical alignment
station for large chips and a vibratory feeder for parts in tubes.
It is very easy to program, too.
Any interest?
Jon

Also, I wanted to mention that this machine could be an excellent base to
start a retrofit with a modern control and vision. Since it will come with
over 50 feeders, you don't need to fool around with mickey-mouse strip
feeder contraptions.

One thing I have learned is that old assembly equipment is pretty much wort

it is either so out of date as to be not worth the bother of using it, or
it is worn out enough that it will never work well enough to pay its way.
In any event, why break into a thread that is completely unrelated to post

That's a polite way of saying, "What the fuck is wrong with you?"

Is that an apology for the followup comment you made about my saying
that Dr. Gottlieb may have a valid point that he was tweeting about?
If so, then apology accepted. See? I am easy to get along with!

Not sure, but it does mean the UK plan and proposed US plan do not conform
with WHO guidelines. Dunno about UK, but US FDA may have problems authorizi
ng any plan deviating from WHO recommendation. And this may be grounds for
public interest advocates to sue both those governments to hold their wildl
y unscientific plans.

Fred's idea of what "wildly unscientific" means has to be reconciled with h
is somewhat bizarre ideas about what the science is.
Slowing down vaccination because there are discussions about the best inter
val between two shots of vaccine isn't a remotely good idea, and any ration
al court is going to throw out any such frivolous case.

LOL- well that's just it. The plan is not real vaccination, and will most c

be catastrophic.
