"we did not find large differences in the median duration of viral shedding among participants who were unvaccinated, those who were vaccinated but not boosted, and those who were vaccinated and boosted"

Link: NEJM

Vaxxed/boosted.

Let me copy the D numbers at 5 days and 10 days below
Time to pcr conversion
5 days
Unvaxxxed: 14
Vaxxed: 34
Boosted: 11

10 days
Unvaxxxed: 5
Vaxxed: 26
Boosted: 8

So, these numbers means, after 10 days, only 5 unvaxxxed need to continue quarantine. But 26 vaxxed need to continue quarantine and 8 boosted need to continue quarantine.
If we convert to percentageof total patients, you can see unvaxxxed is the best, vaxxed is worse, and the boosted is the worst. But their differences are not huge. That's why they say, as you quoted, "did not find large differences".

But, no large difference doesn't mean no difference, as the number and graph showed. The difference is, the result of unvaxxxed is the best. Note: to save to time, I didn't use figure 1E numbers of culture conversion, but they are similar to the results of pcr conversion. It's very straightforward. You can see it.

PS, Who are you? Could you tell us your regular alias here?

I like facts and data. Your data summary seems to contract the statement made by the authors. I don't have time to analyze the statistical significance of the data in the hazards model. I hope the authors did. if they did not, you should write in to NEJM.

I don't regularly post, and I don't use another handle.

in response to this article. I say above all, don't listen to Google doc charlatans. Misinterpretation of data is common as are slanted links from unqualified people with a political horse in the race who draw foolish conclusions to help their cause.

Regarding the study, as for myself, I intend to get a hold of the actual NEJM article rather than relying on anyone else's summary such as Gateway Pundit OR LinkBoy.

various snake handlers spread the virus. Wow!

For Omicron, the boosted are particularly super spreaders.

1) Even from Day 1 of vaccines being available...the protection rate was 95%...not 100%...and the ensuing variants have lowered that number significantly, while saving millions all over the world from severe illness or death.
2) "Breakthrough" infections have been discussed since 2021...but they still have a much better chance of staying out of the hospital or morgue than their Unvaxxed brethren...like Fauci and tons of others who got infected after being Vaxxed and Boosted.
3) Both vaccination and previous infection provide comparable levels of re-infection immunity...those with prior infection AND vaccination have much better immunity...
4) I've already provided voluminous data supporting vaccine safety and effectiveness, especially as regards their primary purpose...keeping people out of hospitals, ICUs and morgues...can't help you if you refuse to read any of it.

Hopefully, you'll come up with some really challenging points some day...as for the "Ship of Fools" comment...I'd agree that you are "Adrift" ;-).

He should at least read the paper and understand statistical significance. I don't think it is necessary to call him a rube.
