COVID-19 Vaccine Candidate Shows Promise in First Peer-Reviewed Research

to the skin, but as a high-tech version that is more efficient and reproducible patient to patient,” Falo said. “And it’s actually pretty painless—it feels kind of like Velcro.”

The system is also highly scalable. The protein pieces are manufactured by a “cell factory”—layers upon layers of cultured cells engineered to express the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein—that can be stacked further to multiply yield. Purifying the protein can also be done at industrial scale. Mass-producing the microneedle array involves spinning down the protein-sugar mixture into a mold using a centrifuge. Once manufactured, the vaccine can sit at room temperature until it’s needed, eliminating the need for refrigeration during transport or storage.

No Whammies!!


NBA got better tech than the president


I was thinking about something the other day:
Shutting down the NBA was the first "domino" that led to all major corporations starting to shut down the next day.
Its possible that Adam Silver actually saved more lives in the US with that than any other single person during this crisis.

How’s that happen when your on lockdown


All of these places talking about they are on lockdown. People are out in these cities......A study said that people in the U.S. were still moving around at about 50% of the rate they were before lockdowns. When you take away the time people spend commuting to work on both ends, that probably means people are moving around more than they were before.....

People can goof off and say they are on their way to the gas station, grocery store, doctor or whatever they want to say when they get stopped. We just have to come to terms with we'll be dealing with this until a vaccine is established....

During the 2018-2019 season, the CDC estimates 16.5 million people went to a health care provider for the flu and more than 34,000 people died in the U.S. The prior season saw 61,000 deaths.

As of 8:43 EST 4-6-2020
United States Coronavirus: 367,004 Cases and 10,871 Deaths - Worldometer
United States
Coronavirus Cases:
366,906
Deaths:
10,868

In a month this has killed about 1/3 the number of people the Flu killed in a whole season with under 370,000 diagnosed infections. This is an apples to apples comparison because it says went to a health care provider.

200 to 215 people are dying everyday in NY at home?
Guys..... do you get that impression from the news?

If you watch the news does it feel like that many are dying everyday?

the news isn't going to peoples houses to interview about deaths at homes unless the person or cause of death is notable. corpses aren't being tested for covid-19. You have to extrapolate information from other sources such as the fact that morgues across the country arm being filled to capacity and damn near every state/county is requesting refrigerated trailers to store the bodies thats piling up. this is the type of action taken during natural disasters except now it's the entire country in crisis.

if you're truly skeptical, do what was mentioned in the tweet. call up a few funeral homes or cemeteries and see if they can "accommodate" you and you'll have your answer..

At least saved more sports attendees and players than anyone else. nikkas did NOT have problems going to those games up until that
