我國因莫德納疫苗無法穩定到貨,除原本優先接種疫苗名單第一至第三類人員和孕婦,仍維持間隔28天施打第二劑外,其他都宣佈推遲為間隔10至12週。雖然已是同島不同命,但現在等第二劑的民眾更是焦慮,因為到底能不能在12週內順利完成接種得到足夠的保護力,竟然也得不到政府的保證?在此提醒中央疫情指揮中心,到目前為止找得到有關莫德納疫苗施打的官方指引中,第二劑都是建議4週或6週;就算有疫苗限制,WHO也寫明間隔最長也就是12週!
有關莫德納接種第二劑應該間隔多久,美國CDC和WHO網站寫得很清楚。美國CDC認為間隔為4週,最長為6週,超過6週才接種第二劑的有效性訊息有限。WHO也是建議間隔4週,可延長至6週;若疫苗供應嚴重限制的國家,為提高第一劑的覆蓋率,可考慮將第二劑疫苗延遲至最長12週;建議遵守完整接種時間表,而且兩次接種不建議混打。
附上美國CDC和WHO相關連結和肉容:
➡️美國CDC
♦️英文版:
Moderna COVID-19 vaccine
Get your second shot 4 weeks (or 28 days) after your first.
You should get your second shot as close to the recommended 4-week interval as possible. However, your second dose may be given up to 6 weeks (42 days) after the first dose, if necessary. You should not get the second dose early. There is currently limited information on the effectiveness of receiving your second shot earlier than recommended or later than 6 weeks after the first shot.

莫德納COVID-19疫苗
請在接種第一劑後的4週(或28天)接種第二劑。
您應盡可能在建議的4週間隔內接種第二劑。但是,如有必要,第二劑可以在接種第一劑後6週(42天)接種。不應過早接種第二劑。目前,關於在建議的時間之前或第一劑接種6週之後接種第二劑的有效性訊息有限。

➡️WHO
♦️英文版:
SAGE recommends the use of the Moderna mRNA-1273 vaccine at a schedule of two doses (100 µg, 0.5 ml each) 28 days apart. If necessary, the interval between the doses may be extended to 42 days.
Studies have shown a high public health impact where the interval has been longer than that recommended by the EUL. Accordingly, countries facing a high incidence of COVID-19 combined with severe vaccine supply constraints could consider delaying the second dose up to 12 weeks in order to achieve a higher first dose coverage in high priority populations.
Compliance with the full schedule is recommended and the same product should be used for both doses.
♦️中文版:
戰略諮詢專家組推薦的莫德納mRNA-1273疫苗使用方案為,分兩次接種(每次100微克,0.5毫升),間隔28天。如有必要,接種間隔可延長至42天。
研究表明,如果間隔時間比《緊急使用清單》建議的時間長,會對公共衛生產生嚴重影響。因此,面臨COVID-19發生和疫苗供應嚴重限制的國家,可考慮將第二劑疫苗延遲至最多12週,以便在高優先人群中實現更高的第一劑覆蓋率。
建議遵守完整接種時間表,兩次接種應使用相同的產品。

💕「愛台灣,我的選擇」系列第14發:環境科學家馬耐德發現台灣的生物多樣性與供應鏈的關鍵角色
「我來自美國加州聖地亞哥,畢業於美國創價大學,主修環境科學,當時主要從事淡水魚和基礎漁業的研究。隨後我到加州蒙特瑞國際研究學院攻讀碩士,研究海洋及沿海資源管理。當時其中一位教授就是來自台灣,她告訴我:『你應該去台灣看一看。』很多旅居海外的台灣人都會這樣鼓勵外國人拜訪台灣。
而我後來也的確到台灣進行了一個海峽兩岸的研究,作為唯一一位環境科學學人,我必須要想一個能在台北和上海演講的主題,垃圾就是一個最明顯的題材。因為當你來到台灣,你會發現台灣街道上都沒有垃圾,這點讓我感到非常新奇,為什麼會沒有垃圾呢?當時我也發現並沒有什麼關於台灣廢棄物管理轉型的英文資訊,所以我就決定住在台灣,研究這個讓我很著迷的題目。那是2013年的事,後來我獲得傅爾布萊特獎助金在墾丁海生館擔任訪問學者一年,至此之後我就待了下來。大約六個月前,我開始在銳思碳管理顧問公司上班,我們負責協助大型品牌和他們的供應鏈設定並達成碳供應鏈目標。這是我們剛在台灣成立的新辦公室,公司的總部在香港,但我們想要把重心移到台灣,因為台灣是關鍵的供應鏈環節。我們認為台灣將在永續報告和減碳目標上持續成長,而且台灣真的是個好地方。
台灣有很多我很喜歡的優點,我覺得最棒但很少被注意到的一點是台灣的生物多樣性。台灣是亞熱帶島嶼,擁有非常豐富多樣的原生種和特有種,美麗的蝴蝶、螢火蟲、珊瑚、鯨鯊、鮪魚、熊……物種多到我三天三夜都講不完。而且就算不開車,也很容易親近大自然。我也喜歡騎單車,台灣的單車道做的非常好,還有優質的單車品牌和產品。我在台灣大多時候過的很不錯,沒什麼好抱怨的,食物也好吃。而且台灣人基本上對科學有充分的信任和熱忱,許多民選官員都曾經是醫生、科學家、工程師等等,連總統都曾發表過博士論文。台灣的前副總統大概是地球上最有資格帶領對抗新冠疫情的領袖。感覺上,台灣有很多科學家,當個理工宅男好像也很OK。」
✨馬耐德(Nate Maynard)連續兩年(2014及2015 年)榮獲美國傅爾布萊特獎助學金,現為「鬼島之音Waste Not Why Not」節目製作及主持人,及銳思碳管理顧問股份有限公司高級顧問。
💕Why I chose Taiwan #14 – Environmental sciences scholar Nate Maynard discover Taiwan’s and its key role in supply chains
"I’m from San Diego California originally. My undergrad was from Soka University of America; liberal arts with a concentration in environmental studies, and I work on fresh-water fishes mostly and basic fisheries. And then my Master’s program was at the Monterey Institute of International Studies with a concentration in ocean and coastal resource management. One of my professors was Taiwanese, and she said: ‘you gotta go to Taiwan,’ as most Taiwanese people living abroad will tell foreigners.
And I did go visit Taiwan for a cross-Strait research trip, and as the only environment person, I had to come up with something I could talk about in Taipei and Shanghai, and garbage was the most obvious thing. Because when you come to Taiwan, there’s no garbage, and I became fascinated: Why is there no garbage? I realized there really wasn’t much information in English about Taiwan’s waste management transformation, and that’s sort of how I got hooked and decided I wanted to live in Taiwan. That was 2013. And then I got the Fulbright Fellowship and spent a year at the National Aquarium in Kenting....and they haven’t been able to get me to leave. About six months ago, I started working for a private consulting firm called Reset Carbon. We help major brands and their supply chains set and achieve carbon supply chain targets. This is a new office that we just set up in Taiwan. The company’s headquarter is in Hong Kong, but we wanted to pivot to Taiwan because Taiwan’s the key supply chain link. We expect to see Taiwan growing in terms of sustainability reporting, carbon reduction goals, and Taiwan’s just a nice place.
There’s a couple things that I really enjoy about Taiwan. I think the best thing that doesn’t get enough coverage is biodiversity. Taiwan is a sub-tropical island. It’s full of native and endemic species, beautiful butterflies, fireflies, coral, whale sharks, tuna, bears...I can list the animals for hours. It’s easy for me to go and get access to nature, even without a car. I also enjoy biking and Taiwan has excellent biking infrastructure, and great bike companies that make fine products. Most aspects of my life in Taiwan are pretty good. I can’t complain. Food is great too. I think there’s also a general trust and enthusiasm for science in Taiwan. I mean there’s a lot of elected officials that are doctors, scientists, engineers, and the president has published papers as a PhD. And you know, the vice president was probably the most qualified person on Earth to lead the COVID response. In Taiwan, it feels like the scientists are pretty well-represented, and like being a nerd is kinda okay." -- Nate Maynard
✨Nate Maynard won Fulbright Fellowship two times in a row (2014-15, 2015-16), now serving as a program host and producer of “Waste Not Why Not” with Ghost Island Media and a senior consultant at Reset Carbon.

《The Guardian 英國衛報》
英國衛報在7日以「自身成功的受害者:為何台灣未能設法因應大規模新冠疫情爆發」A victim of its own success: how Taiwan failed to plan for a major Covid outbreak為題,評論報導點出儘管台灣先前有250天沒有發生任何本土案例。
但近期在台灣發生逾1.1萬例感染案例中,超過90%是在5月中以來染疫。台灣主要受三大因素,而在抗疫中失敗:
1)疫苗訂量不足、
2)錯估全球疫苗短缺形勢
3)和地緣政治影響。(指因中國大陸復星集團代理權爭議買不到輝瑞疫苗)
而且,因為疫苗不足,台灣全國接種疫苗的人口比率,不到3%。(指施打一劑)
●未能及時防範兇猛的英國病毒株
多位公共衛生專家表示,在病毒於全世界一波波擴散之際,台灣當局未跟上有
關新的變種病毒株的新知識、包括對抗空氣傳播必須通風的重要性。
*尤其大規模檢測的有效性。
一些人士認為,台灣已成為「自身成功的受害者」。
公衛專家、前副總統陳建仁表示,當局原先以為他們靠著接觸史追蹤系統和精確篩檢就已控制住疫情,但英國病毒株傳播速度更快,帶來挑戰,而且5月9日母親節又釀成超級散播事件。
●不願採取嚴格封鎖措施
衛報也指出,台灣當局顯然反對採取激烈的封鎖措施,而且屢次重新界定引發必須封鎖定義門檻。
振興醫院感染科主治醫師顏慕庸表示,從疫情大爆發以來,已有很大的改善,但他仍希望台灣能基於感染數和風險水準制定明確定對應的封鎖限制措施。
顏慕庸說,他仍擔心加護病房被增加的病患數壓垮,進而導致外溢至社區的風險,「這曾經發生在紐約市、義大利北部。你必須要停止傳播,就是要採用封鎖。一個必要、精心規劃的封鎖」。
●疫苗仍是當務之急
衛報指出,全球應對疫情的焦點仍是疫苗,但台灣在取得疫苗方面也面臨問題。
A victim of its own success: how Taiwan failed to plan for a major Covid outbreak
Once a poster child for blocking coronavirus, Taiwan failed to fully prepare a pandemic response or vaccination rollout

While most of the world suffered through hundreds of millions of cases and millions of deaths from Covid-19, the 23.5 million people in Taiwan largely lived a normal life, thanks to a well-documented strong and early response that saw it go 250 days without a single local case. It lobbied for inclusion in the World Health Organization’s decision-making body off the back of its undeniable success and expertise under the slogan “Taiwan can help”.
But now the tables have turned and the island itself is in need of assistance, after an outbreak that started among airline staff in April spread across the island. The government appears to have been caught short by something it thought would never happen: the poster child for outbreak prevention had apparently failed to fully prepare an outbreak response.
It has so far recorded more than 11,000 cases and 260 deaths, more than 90% of them since mid-May. Affected by inadequate orders, global shortages and geopolitics, it has vaccinated fewer than 3% of its 23.5 million people. The president, Tsai Ing-wen, on Monday gave a broadcast address from her office to assure a population at its second-highest alert level that 750,000 vaccine doses promised by the US would arrive soon.
‘We thought maybe we could contain this’
Multiple health and social experts told the Guardian that as the virus spread in waves worldwide, authorities hadn’t kept up with new scientific knowledge around virulent new strains, the importance of ventilation to combat aerosolised spread, the effectiveness of mass testing, or the examples set by some countries of locking down hard and early. Some felt Taiwan had become “a victim of its own success”, even complacent.
* 自身成功的受害者:台灣如何未能為大規模的 Covid 爆發做好計劃
台灣曾是阻斷冠狀病毒的典型代表,但未能為大流行應對或疫苗接種做好充分準備
冠狀病毒 - 最新更新查看我們所有的冠狀病毒報導海倫戴維森在台北
@heldavidson
2021 年 6 月 7 日星期一 09.19 EDT
雖然世界上大部分地區因 Covid-19 感染了數億例病例和數百萬人死亡,但台灣 2350 萬人在很大程度上過著正常的生活,這要歸功於有據可查的強有力的早期反應,該反應在 250 天內沒有發生一個本地案例。
憑藉其無可否認的成功和專業知識,它以“台灣可以提供幫助”為口號,遊說將其納入世界衛生組織的決策機構。
但是,在 4 月份航空公司工作人員爆發的疫情蔓延到全島之後,現在情況發生了轉變,該島本身需要幫助。政府似乎被它認為永遠不會發生的事情弄得措手不及:預防疫情的典型代表顯然未能充分準備好應對疫情。
迄今為止,它已記錄了 11,000 多例病例和 260 例死亡,其中 90% 以上是自 5 月中旬以來的記錄。
受政府疫苗採購不足、全球疫苗短缺和地緣政治的影響,它的 2350 萬人口中只有不到 3% 的人,接種了(一劑)疫苗。
週一,蔡英文總統在她的辦公室發表廣播講話,向處於第二高警戒級別的民眾保證,美國承諾的 75 萬劑疫苗很快就會到貨。
“我們想也許我們可以控制它”
多位公衛體系和社會專家告訴《衛報》,隨著病毒在全球掀起波瀾,當局沒有跟上關於新變種毒株的新科學知識。
*通風對抗霧化傳播的重要性、
*大規模檢測的有效性或示例。
一些國家早已地採取了嚴格的封鎖措施。但一些人認為台灣已成為“自身成功的受害者”,甚至自滿。
⋯⋯
在國內,黨派也攪渾了水,幾位專家告訴衛報,他們對公開批評廣受歡迎的政府和衛生當局(包括陳時中)必須持謹慎態度。
一位公衛專家說,他們覺得政府不願複製在中國看到的任何事情——比如野戰方艙醫院或封鎖——政治已經為判斷蒙上了陰影。
對於台灣以外的人或密切關注疫情的人來說,今天的台灣令人不安地懷舊,彷彿現在是2020年6月,而不是2021年。
全球防疫現在是關於疫苗。
但台灣也在這方面苦苦掙扎。 “我認為政府開始認真考慮 [疫苗] 太晚了,”全球臺灣醫學聯盟總幹事、前國家監察員委員Peter Chang 博士說。
“他們認為我們很擅長戴口罩,人們在保持社交距離方面非常自律,所以沒關係。”
許多早期在該病毒上取得成功的國家也一直在努力獲得和分發疫苗,但台灣面臨著額外的併發症,包括指責和中國地緣政治干預的實例。台灣聲稱中國阻止了與德國疫苗生產商 BioNTech 的交易,中國予以否認。
台灣防疫指揮中心CECC 告訴《衛報》,它正在盡最大努力控制疫情,但“公平獲得有效疫苗是結束全球 Covid-19 大流行的最終解決方案”。
日本已提供超過 120 萬劑疫苗,美國參議員周日飛往台北,宣布美國的捐贈,並強調美國兩黨對台灣的支持。
進入第 3 級警戒兩週多後,病例數並沒有顯著下降,週一警報再次延長,直到 6 月底。
陳時中部長認為 3 級已經足夠嚴格,並質疑政府實施更多措施的能力,但表示沒有足夠明確的信息,告訴一般人如何保護自己免受高比例的無症狀感染者和所謂的“隱形感染”者。
“你必須假設任何不與你同住的人都是潛在的攜帶者,”他說。 “在接下來的兩週左右的時間裡,不要與不和你住在一起的人在室內聚會。”

Hello Internet, my name is Ray, I'm a YouTuber from Taiwan, and this is an open letter to the World Health Organization.
Dear WHO, I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but a lot of your members have been voicing support for the inclusion of Taiwan in the WHO.
Since the novel coronavirus outbreak was designated as a global health emergency, core WHO members and their heads of state and officials, including Justin Trudeau, Shinzo Abe, 7 American senators, and the European Union (and more), have called on you to grant at the very least observer status to Taiwan. Having said that, I feel like as a Taiwanese citizen, it’s imperative that we also speak up for ourselves.
Disease knows no boundaries. Taiwan’s participation in the WHO is crucial not just to Taiwan but also to the world. A concerted, global effort is the only way to ensure the health and welfare of everyone. The coronavirus that began in Wuhan, China, has already spread to other regions and countries, excluding Taiwan could make it a "blind spot" in the international response to the disease.
Additionally, back in 2003, the SARS outbreak resulted in 73 lives taken in Taiwan. If we had been included in the WHO back then, we would’ve had better understanding of the virus and maybe, who knows, more lives could have been saved.
But we’re not just here playing the victim here, Taiwan can help. Taiwan’s healthcare system is lauded as among the best in the world, and our medical standards are generally on par with top global countries. The inclusion of Taiwan in world health assemblies and events would enable it to share its invaluable experiences in combating SARS, Ebola and other pandemics, helping countries around the world, including China. With our universal health coverage, health emergency response, and professional medical training, Taiwan can benefit the world.
Now you might say, Taiwan’s already represented by China in the WHO, but Taiwan’s geological separation and its independent disease control system and air traffic management provide further justification to why the WHO must take different approaches to Taiwan and China amid the coronavirus outbreak.
Also, given our proximity, Taiwan is at the very frontline battling this coronavirus from China, and we are skilled, determined, and equipped with past experiences combating different viruses. Excluding us is putting close to 24 million lives and the global population at risk.
As a Taiwanese, as a member of the global community, I am asking you on behalf of the world to include Taiwan. By allowing our participation in the WHO, you will be realizing the organization’s vision of health as a basic human right and health for all without exception. Thank you for your time.

大家好,我是阿滴,我是一名來自台灣的 YouTuber。這是給世界衛生組織的一封公開信。
親愛的世界衛生組織,不知道你們有沒有注意到,貴組織最近有越來越多成員在聲援台灣成為世衛的一分子。在新型冠狀病毒被列為全球衛生緊急事件後,世衛核心會員國的元首和官員們,包括加拿大總理杜魯道、日本首相安倍、七位美國參議員,和歐盟(以及其他代表)等等,皆紛紛站出來呼籲讓台灣至少能以觀察員的身份參與世界衛生組織。說到這裡,身為一個台灣人,我認為我們也必須站出來替自己發聲。
疾病的肆虐是無視國界的。台灣能否參與世界衛生組織不僅對我們重要,對全世界也很重要。全球團結一致、齊心協力,才能最有效的保障所有人的健康與福祉。從中國武漢開始的冠狀病毒疫情已擴散到其他地區與國家,將台灣排除在世界衛生組織外將造成國際上防疫的「盲點」。
此外,2003年爆發的SARS疫情,造成台灣失去了73條性命。如果我們當初有在世界衛生組織內,對於病毒就能有更深入的了解,而或許,就會有更多人因此得救了。
然而,我們並不是要博取同情,而是想讓世界知道台灣能幫上忙。台灣擁有全球最佳的健保制度,還有與其他先進國家並駕齊驅的醫療水準。如果讓台灣參與世界衛生組織,我們將有機會分享對抗SARS和其他流行疾病的寶貴經驗,進一步幫助世界各國,包括中國。透過我們的全民健康覆蓋、衛生應急響應,和專業的醫療訓練,台灣能幫助全世界。
不過,你可能會說,中國已經代表台灣參加世界衛生組織了。但是,台灣在地理位置的區隔下有獨立的疾病控管系統和航空交通管制,這說明了為什麼世界衛生組織在處理冠狀病毒的疫情時更應該對台灣和中國採取不同的應對方式。
同時,台灣跟中國就在隔壁,台灣站在對抗新型冠狀病毒的最前線,且我們有能力、有決心,也有對抗不同病毒的豐富經驗。將我們排除在外,即代表忽視將近2400萬的台灣人民與全球人口的生命安全。
身為一個台灣人、同時也是全球人民的一分子,我向你們請求讓台灣加入世界衛生組織。讓我們參與,即是實踐貴組織的願景:健康是基本人權,沒有人該被排除在外。謝謝你們的時間。
