THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Scripps Research Institute have developed a groundbreaking UNIVERSAL coronavirus vaccine that triggers STONG immune responses AND shows promise in neutralizing MULTIPLE coronaviruses, including those responsible for causing COVID-19, MERS, AND even the “common cold.” 🧪🧵⬇️

(And yes, the research includes flu viruses because of the glycan targets. Just don't call them coronaviruses. It sounds stupid.)
Don't let Trump and RFJ Jr. find out. They'd likely shut down the research. Or Geier will...pathetic.
...and also super hopeful, because I would love to stop masking in public and worrying about covid! I did not in fact know the thing about viral sugar coatings, but it makes sense, and this approach is wonderful. Thank you for sharing!

Also: HYPE!
Thank you so much for breaking this down for us laypeople, always love your updates 💕

Oooh, I see. He and Musk are just trying to save money to create the wellness clinic on Mars.
Oh shit nice
do you think this technology will lead to a vaccine powerful enough to start building herd immunity against certain forms of that virus family?
And whether they’ll be let back in.
Doompost on your own timeline.
Dooming and then putting a cheery "have a nice day" on the end is aiding and abetting fascism gleefully.
Gleefully aiding the enemy makes you the enemy.
Reconsider what you're doing here. HEAVILY.
Even if it’s not all variants, that alone is super impressive if it keeps up in later trials
Plus, a Bluesky account isn't needed to read it.
(I'm visually challenged and these are easier for me to read and save with everything all together.🙂)

The Vaccine Speakeasies of Today.
Along with other news you've posted here about sickle-cell and HIV.
“Everyone knows that this will cause scurvy.”
Then only the wealthiest can afford it. They will put the price up on the vaccine. People who lost Medicaid, Medicare, SS, and other benefits won't be able to afford it. They are killing us. Some faster then others.
FDA directed to withhold approvals.
My what a dystopian present we seem to be living in when I can type this and I'm sure half the people reading it thought it true.
Not that it's in your direct power. I hope this is shared with the world as the USA might be the first country in modern times to ban vaccines.

Sry to point it out that way, hehe^^
You'd be amazed by the number of uni professors I could so easily drive insane if I pointed out all their typos xD
My partner suffers from long-Covid - 3 years after, he is not okay. Very scary.
Here's to it coming through to mass adoption, eh!
(Please don't ask if I got mine 😬 I'm caught up otherwise)
-RFK, Jr., probably
Funding is from National Institute of Health+other federal agencies.
I hope Trump doesn't shut it down.
I was worried, especially because I know Scripps college is feminist, woke +LGBTQ friendly which is a target for MAGA.
How do you train antibodies to strip sugar as part of their normal function.
It would make more sense to train antibodies to recognise the parts of the virus that are exposed.
Thanks now I see.
So the glycan can be perceived as a hostile agent already.
A virus unboxing!
KISS
It skips many steps of older production methods.

But's that's not how traditional vaccines work.
You kill the DNA RNA and expose the body to just the outer coating.
'Foreign' proteins and polysaccharides.
A sort of red flag and then when the real thing turns up the body releases the bull!

They are probably using mRNA vaccines where they send in mRNA with the assembly instructions for the specific antigens and no virus is harmed in the production of antibodies.
Traditional vaccines trigger a natural response
A natural infection of COVID seems 2 provide longer lasting & broader spectrum protection than using mRNA based vaccines.
There R studies out there.
I caught COVID & my body dealt w. it.
After ~ 70 years of flu exposure
I'll take vaccination with boosters any day.

Haven't had a cold/flu in over 4 years. (I still vaxx up, too!)
Haven't been sick either, EXCEPT when my husband infected me with Covid.
It's just common sense!!!

Trump will protect them
Just gotta say anytime you say something is huge, your sona gets like a foot taller in my imaginary space and I think you just broke the roof (again)
Plz keep up the amazing work thank u
