I was looking to do the same, but I have held off thus far.

Thank you for that insight. It is good to hear that at least some have immunity - understanding the longevity will be key. I do hope you daughter stays safe. I'm also concerned about those who work in open plan offices, retail, and eating establishments. . . Contactless payment and "no touch" policies will help, but are not perfect.

I'm was thinking about conditions which may take up to two years to develop.. already the incidence of Kawasaki and others is up as a result of covid19.

Genuine question, Given that even a mild case of Covid can raise the likelihood of other (more rare) diseases to rise, how can we deal with that? I think we are just at the beginning of our understanding of secondary effects.

I have been thinking that anyone who deal with lots of strangers / is in places where lots of strangers pass through may need a strong dose (including all those who work in retail, use public transport, etc).

Lots of parents have had to watch their children buried by people in PPE, not allowed to attend.

Plenty of tears to be shed for the 62k plus excess deaths this year.

I believe they are running out of body bags as they double bagged them. They will need to order more.

Novavax has begun the first phase of the trial in which 131 volunteers in Melbourne and Brisbane will test the safety of the vaccine and look for early signs of its effectiveness.
In case it has not been posted...

I really don't get inac's jibber jabber most days. I am looking forward to being able to travel again in a few years once a reliable vaccine is sorted.

I suspect he doesn't realise I gave up the nationality of the country in which I was born - it was just an accident of geography over time.

So glad the storms of the bank holiday have passed. If I had not checked the weather report I would have assumed we were in the remnants of a hurricane over the weekend. Today's dawn was sunny at least, though many of the azaleas and rhododendrons have lost their flowers in the blow.

Hope you have all had a lovely stay at home Bank Holiday weekend!

To me this is one of the main advantages Scancell offers for any takeover / partnership. I'm not sure how many radars they are on.

It's been advertised several times and post here at least 2 times... Might be the tale wagging the dog as most of the research and most of the production will be offshore.

Virtual conference...

Saw this on Twitter - interesting for me to see that in adddion to lung scarring and a spike in ME/CFS expected in circa 18 months, that there are other issues.

Last tweet in the thread was the most interesting for me: In conclusion, Renaud Du Pasquier explains that ACE2, the receptor of the virus, is present in the brain. Coronaviruses can infect human neurons and different types of neurological complications emerge #EAN2020 #COVID19

I'm not sure we will have to worry about this problem

The UK is still getting 3k new cases a day - and that is will very little testing.

WTP: Thank you for posting that - better to know than not know now.

For those on social media - here is one tweet I missed.

Just up after a late night - so we can make the news in CHINA, but not on UK shores.... IDK about everyone else, but I'd be happy for China donations to get the emergency appeal over the line. (halo smile)

Sets out some of the talking points - link at bottom of post

Key para for me: Later this year or sometime in 2021, there's a good chance we'll see a COVID vaccine successfully produced— in limited quantities. Someone will be first in line. Others who want to be vaccinated will have to wait, possibly for years, as more vaccine is manufactured, and distribution gets up to speed.

Snippets I thought were important (link at the bottom of post)

A cluster of Covid-19 cases in China’s Rust Belt region has intensified worry over a second wave of coronavirus infections.

Why is this outbreak such a worry? : The pathogen’s makeup. These coronavirus cases are showing a different gene sequence from the outbreak in Hubei, while identical with imported cases from Russia. Changes in the virus’s genetic sequence could make it harder for officials to detect

TF: Take tour point. There's a vast world of difference between the years of ground work Scancell have laid and the info I read about Moderna.

Take care all.

I'm not sure I've seen C7 post today - trust all is well.

I think I read somewhere years ago that a 3 day fast basically helps regenerate the immune system. At the time, it made sense with the the old adage to starve a fever... Obviously with plenty of liquids.

Will watch the videos over the weekend. Thank you for posting.

Now I understand the market hype better. Thank you for posting.

J&J said they would make a vaccine available in September on a not for profit basis. Even that was at least 6 months ahead of my back of the envelope guess as to when a vaccine would be in production (assuming it sailed through all the clinical trials and passed regulatory controls).

As it should... Hopefully the market won't get so hyped going forward.

To be honest, I didn't think they did. I read that they were broken down and expelled.
