Additional resources OHA COVID-19 Vaccine Boosters and Third Dose website CDC: COVID-19 and HIV Basics HIV.gov – Symptoms of HIV, HIV Treatment as Prevention and HIV and COVID-19 National Institutes of Health – HIV Information Page Ask a Black Doctor on The Numberz REACH webpage and REACH Facebook OHA Facebook HIV/AIDS and COVID-19 vaccines Q1: This Wednesday was World AIDS Day. Why do we celebrate World AIDS Day? World AIDS Day takes place on December 1 each year. It's an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV, to show support for people living with HIV, and to commemorate those who have died from an AIDS-related illness. Founded in 1988, World AIDS Day was the first ever global health day. Q2: How can you tell if you have HIV? The starting point is to get tested. If you test positive, you can take antiretroviral medications to manage HIV. By taking HIV medicine daily as prescribed, you can make the amount of HIV in your blood (your viral load) very low—so low that a test can't detect it (called an undetectable viral load).  Getting and keeping an undetectable viral load is the best thing you can do to stay healthy. If your viral load stays undetectable, you have effectively no risk of transmitting HIV to an HIV-negative partner through sex. Getting tested for HIV is the key for early awareness and treatment. Q3: What are the common symptoms of HIV? A few weeks after getting HIV, many people have flu-like symptoms, which may last days or weeks. These symptoms can include fever, headache, tiredness, and enlarged lymph glands in the neck and groin area. Some people may have no symptoms. Q4: What is AIDS? AIDS is the most advanced stage of HIV, when a person's immune system is severely weakened and has difficulty fighting infections and certain cancers. At this stage, serious symptoms develop, such as: Rapid weight loss Serious infections Pneumonia Recurrent fevers Prolonged swelling of the lymph glands Skin blotches Prolonged diarrhea Sores of the mouth, anus, or genitals Memory loss Depression Other neurologic disorders Q5: Are people who have tested positive for HIV/AIDS at greater risk from the impacts of COVID-19? There is still much we are learning about how COVID-19 affects people with HIV. Based on what we know at this time, people with HIV are at greater risk for becoming severely ill from COVID-19. Various factors can contribute to this as well, such as age and other underlying medical conditions. We recommend folks with HIV take preventive actions (including getting vaccinated, wearing a mask, avoiding large gatherings, good hand hygiene, and practicing physical distancing) to protect themselves from getting COVID-19. Q6: Are COVID-19 vaccines safe for people who are HIV/AIDS positive? YES! These vaccines are safe and effective in people with HIV. The COVID-19 vaccines have gone through testing to meet safety requirements set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to support Emergency Use Authorization. People with HIV were included in vaccine clinical trials, though safety data for this group are not yet available. According to the CDC, “If you have HIV and are at least 12 years old, you can get vaccinated if you have not had a severe or immediate allergic reaction to any of the vaccine ingredients.” Read CDC's FAQs about the safety of vaccines for people with HIV and when to get vaccinated, and see detailed COVID-19 vaccine information for people with underlying medical conditions. 7. How does COVID-19 affect people with HIV? People who have advanced or untreated HIV may benefit from an additional dose of the COVID-19 vaccine to make sure they have enough protection against COVID-19.  CDC does not recommend an additional dose of the COVID-19 vaccine for people with HIV who are virally suppressed or who do not have advanced HIV.  Talk to your health care provider to determine if getting an additional dose is right for you. You should also talk to your health care provider about the benefits of HIV treatment. People with HIV who take HIV medicine daily as prescribed can live long, healthy lives and protect their partners. In fact, people with HIV who get and keep an undetectable viral load (or stay virally suppressed) have effectively no risk of transmitting HIV to their sexual partners.

Additional resources OHA COVID-19 Vaccine Boosters and Third Dose website OHA Weekly Breakthrough Case Report – Nov. 12, 2021 CDC Breakthrough Infections page Ask a Black Doctor on The Numberz REACH webpage and REACH Facebook OHA Facebook COVID-19 and Breakthrough Cases Q1: We heard from community members who are fully vaccinated, but later needed to be hospitalized due to COVID-19. Why is this? Although COVID-19 vaccines currently appear very effective against severe disease and death, no vaccine is perfect. Because vaccines are not 100% effective, as the number of people who are fully vaccinated goes up, the number of COVID-19 infections among fully vaccinated people will also go up. These infections are called vaccine breakthrough cases. In Oregon, there have been 39,686 breakthrough cases. This is a very small proportion (4%) of the more than 2.6 million people who have been fully vaccinated. Q2: Does a breakthrough case mean the vaccines aren't working? No. In fact, it still means the vaccines are working. We know this because most cases of COVID-19 are in people who are not fully vaccinated.  The risk of infection is still much higher for unvaccinated than vaccinated people. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), studies show that vaccinated people are 5 times less likely to be infected and 10 times less likely to experience hospitalization or death. Some evidence shows that vaccination may also make illness less severe for people with breakthrough infections. This includes people aged 65 years and older, who are at higher risk of severe COVID-19 illness. Q3: Are there certain groups or individuals who are more likely to get COVID-19 even after they're vaccinated? In Oregon, more than 80% of vaccine breakthrough deaths have occurred in people 70 years and older. This may be due to increased disease severity caused by the Delta variant and waning vaccine immunity over time in elderly populations, since they were among the first groups to get the vaccine. Living in an area with high COVID-19 transmission may be another reason.  If you live in an area with low vaccination rates, or even live with unvaccinated people, you are going to be exposed to more virus than you would in a fully vaccinated household or area with higher vaccination rates. The CDC recommends wearing a mask and being more cautious if you live in an area with high COVID-19 transmission, even if you are vaccinated; and Oregon requires masks in most public indoor and outdoor settings. You can check transmission levels by state and county on the CDC website.  Vaccine effectiveness also depends on how well our immune systems respond to vaccines. This varies among individuals. The CDC also reviewed recent studies in several countries about vaccine effectiveness and found that: Vaccine effectiveness was lower among immunocompromised adults compared to those without immunocompromising conditions.  In some studies, immunocompromised persons accounted for over 40% of infections among fully vaccinated hospitalized persons. Q4: So, we know that older adults and immunocompromised people are at greater risk of hospitalization, even if they have been fully vaccinated. How can we protect them? For these groups, the best protection is to get an additional COVID-19 dose if you are eligible. Older adults age 65 and older who were fully vaccinated using the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine can get a booster shot. Many other groups can get a booster, such as frontline workers, health care workers, teachers, and more. Immunocompromised people who were fully vaccinated using Pfizer or Moderna can get a third dose 28 days after their second dose of Pfizer or Moderna. You can get these doses in the same places you got your original vaccine doses, such as your doctor, clinic, or pharmacy. You can learn more by visiting OHA's Vaccine Boosters and Third Dose website.  Q5: And if we live in an area with high COVID-19 transmission levels, or spend a lot of time among unvaccinated people, we could also get COVID-19, even if we're fully vaccinated. What else can we do? We can keep taking the other precautions that have protected us during the pandemic. For example: Wear a mask. Use good hand hygiene: Wash your hands regularly, and avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth if you can't wash your hands or don't have hand sanitizer you can use. Avoid crowds. If you're meeting people from other households, remember outdoor gatherings are safer than indoor gatherings. If you have to be indoors, increase air circulation by opening windows and doors. Use an air purifier. Stay home if you feel sick.  Q6: What will symptoms look like for those who are infected by COVID and have been vaccinated? The symptoms for breakthrough COVID cases are similar to COVID-19 symptoms in unvaccinated people, but typically are milder as far as severity. You may not notice any symptoms at all. If you are fully vaccinated and develop a fever, feel ill, or experience any symptom that is not typical for you, taking a COVID-19 test may be a good idea. If you test positive, please contact your primary care provider.  Local vaccine events for Nov. 19 through Dec. 3, 2021 You can find more vaccine events at multco.us/vaccineclinics. Oregon breakthrough cases as of Nov. 12, 2021 Between Oct. 31 and Nov. 6, there were 6,776 reported cases of COVID-19. 71 percent of those cases occurred in unvaccinated people. 1,962 (29%) were vaccine breakthrough cases. The median age of breakthrough cases was 45 years. Forty breakthrough cases were residents of care facilities, senior living communities or other congregate living settings. There were 76 cases in people ages 12-17.

Thank you for joining us for episode 18 of COVID Conversations. This series is a special presentation of OccPod, the official podcast of the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. ACOEM is dedicated to sharing the latest COVID-19 news, and host conversations grounded in science with a focus on OEM, or occupational and environmental medicine. In this episode, Erin, Dr. Nabeel, and Dr. Berenji discuss current guidance – and the future implications – of COVID-19 booster shots. Although current guidance recommends additional doses for immunocompromised and older patients, their use could become widespread. Since December 2020, the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine has been available under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). EUAs are used by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) during public health emergencies to provide access to medical products that may be effective, provided that the FDA determines that the known and potential benefits of a product outweigh the known and potential risks. On August 23, 2021, the FDA issued a full approval for the vaccine, now marketed as Comirnaty, for use in individuals in ages 16 years of age and older. Thank you for listening!

As if getting hold of your first two jabs wasn't hard enough, now there's talk you'll need a third. Less than a fifth of the Australian population has been fully vaccinated against COVID-19, but the Government has already signed contracts for tens of millions of booster doses, to top up our immunity as soon as next year.

Featured: Professor Peter Collignon, Infectious diseases physician, Microbiologist and Professor of Infectious Diseases, Australian National University Medical School, Canberra Associate Professor Nick Wood, Faculty of Medicine and Health, University of Sydney and Lead, NSW Immunisation Specialist Service, The Children's Hospital, Westmead, Sydney
