This is great, but I can already hear the mobs insisting they're not going to have any weird stuff sprayed up THEIR noses because of the nanotech which interacts with the 5G.

Personally, I'll take a serving of nanotech with a side of 5G for this.

No jab! 😁 "The peptide can be stored in powder form at room temperature and be administered to patients through inhalation".

Googled it

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that perform many biological functions in the body. They are the building blocks of proteins, which are made up of one or more polypeptides.

This is perfect for immunocompromised people! Their MHC I and II have been suppressed due to biologics or chemo, so they are SUPER susceptible to respiratory viruses.

Speaking for the spleenless, this looks like a great development.

Right? I need to read that paper to see where they got the idea from. I'm reading papers about deep-ocean fishes that don't have an adaptive immune system, and how they survive. I wonder if that's how those guys went about it?
